Reply to App Review 4.3(a) Design Spam Rejection
In my case I was told that my app is somehow too simialr to one that a previous developer account submitted, but that account was terminated, so they think I'm spamming them. I don't know what it is that is too similar, because they won't give me any explanation. I develop new features, rejected again, zero explanation what it is they find objectionable, or how to identify what must be addressed. It's basically somew sort of weird Kafka novel going on. Have you ahd any luck with your by now, any new information they may have given you?

I am having the same experience. I have no problem with reviews rejecting submission, with some sort of explanation. But there is never an actual explanation, just copy/pasting of the policy text, which explains nothing concretely. You can waste weeks and month on building new features and may all be a red herring because they actually meant something else. It's very strange, I don't understand why they refuse to give a simple straight-forward answer. "Your app is spam. Could be one of these 10 reasons, but we won't tell you wich." "Ok, I have completely rebuild things, added new features and really proud. Your review actually motivated me to make the app even better, look at all these changes I have made. Thanks fro driving me to do better. Please accept now?" "No, your app is spam. Could be any of these 10 reasons but we won't tell you which." Have you had any luck since then? Any new advice they gave you? or did you end up just abandoning it?
