Reply to How does Numbers.app detect that a document was moved to Recently Deleted, and can third-party apps implement the same behavior?
It's not really about what the Numbers guy does but probably what FileDocument lets it do it. I have never used FileDocument with an iOS app. I do have a macOS application with FileDocument. If I open and then close a document and then move it under a different volume or a folder, the application is still able to open it. But it won't if I move a file to the dumpster.

Reply to Unacceptable Delay and No Response After One Month
I advise that you find a way to move on with your life. Don't let them play their game. Or you will get sick mentally and enter a long period of depression. No matter how harsh your words are, they are not going to listen, and they will ignore you. I left the entire Apple ecosystem after almost going crazy 16 years ago. Back then, an average wait time was 17 to 19 days. And I had about two dozen software updates and new software submissions waiting. It was frustrating when I had a software title, whose name contained the word 'Rip' and they rejected it by saying 'Illegal file sharing.'

Reply to Build stuck in "In Review" for 29+ hours after 3.1.2(c) resubmission
Our app Miiro (App ID: 6759159052) was rejected for Guideline 3.1.2(c) on March 13. What is Guideline 3.1.2(c) about? Nobody remembers all those numbers and corresponding meanings in heart. The build moved to "In Review" shortly after but has been stuck there for over 29 hours with no status change. So what's the issue? You don't have to wait for your turn because you pay a subscription fee?

The one time we got Apple on the phone, we spoke to someone who said she was in charge of the testing team reviewing our app. The call was frustrating—she didn’t seem familiar with basic app testing for a location-based product (for example, how to emulate a different location) I don't know what 'emulating a different location' means, either. If it's not her own app that you are talking about, why does her unfamiliarity to your app make her incompetent? It is your responsibility, not hers, to explain how the app works. Right now we are averaging about a week at best to two weeks. What does that mean?

Reply to App rejected under Guideline 2.1(a) - App Completeness. Seeking advice!
Where is your app going to be sold? If your app is supposed to be used for those who live in Italy and is sold to people inside and also outside of Italy, then the whole scenario doesn't make sense. I often give them a ZIP archive containing one or more videos because I submit a macOS application that works side by side with its iOS counterpart.

Reply to Rejected a couple of time for 5.1.1/5.1.2 - AI consent screen not seen by reviewers despite being first screen on launch
I've been rejected a couple of times for Guidelines 5.1.1(i) and 5.1.2(i) regarding third-party AI data sharing consent. IN-APP CONSENT (embedded in view hierarchy, not a sheet/popup) The description of your problem is confusing because you first say your app is rejected based on 5.1.1 and 5.1.2 review guidelines and then goes on to talk about in-app purchase products. Additionally, you don't mention the development platform. In my RootView.swift, the consent is a conditional view that blocks the entire app: Nobody really knows what RootView.swift is. Additionally, you mingle some lines of code with the description of your topic without using the code block, which makes it difficult for the reader to tell which line is code.

Reply to App disappeared from App Store Connect - support unresponsive - Case 102841743378
Has anyone experienced an app disappearing from App Store Connect? Any advice on escalation would be appreciated. There have been a couple of cases where the app was automatically removed from the store after a software update even though the status said it was ready for distribution. It happened in March 5th. I've asked Apple, Inc. But there has been no explanation.

Reply to Do i really have to incorporate, to update my app?
I co-founded an app called Yuna AI with my wife, who is a Registered Dietitian and a member of the CDO. I don't think anyone can say who is right or who is wrong because you aren't really telling how she is involved.

Reply to 45 days of "Waiting for Review"... What to do now?
Any advice or if Apple sees this... what do I do?! It seems to me that your only option is to sit and wait quietly instead of flooding them with phone calls, which probably only fuels delay.

Reply to In App Purchase Products
Is it possible to add some restrictions in the Product so that a user can not downgrade from a large Storage to a smaller storage? That's possible. See if a purchase has already been made for a particular product identifier.

Reply to sandbox purchase completes but app review gets stuck
There are a lot of topics about 'RevenueCat.' I would take a look at all of them if I were you. Actually, I think, I have read a quite similar topic probably a week ago. I do everything with Xcode. So I cannot offer a clue of any kind. I don't even know why people use RevenueCat. I only know the name. I would also find out if RevenueCat has support forums.

Reply to multiple .searchable on same View
I have never done it, but isn't it just the matter of constructing SwiftUI View consisting of multiple View, each of which has its own body?
