App stuck in review for over 6 weeks – no response from App Review
Hello, I’m posting here because I’m experiencing a very unusual issue with the App Store review process and haven’t been able to resolve it through normal support channels. Our app has been waiting in App Review for over 6 weeks, which is far beyond the normal review timeframe. During this period, I contacted Apple Developer Support multiple times and even submitted an expedited review request, but the situation has not progressed. Some of my inquiries have unfortunately received no response, and the app remains stuck in review without any explanation. This delay is now causing serious operational and financial impact for our small development business. We had updates and marketing plans scheduled around this release, but the prolonged review status is preventing us from moving forward. I fully understand that review times can vary, but a 6+ week delay without any status update or communication seems highly abnormal. If any Apple staff or experienced developers have encountered a similar situation, I would greatly appreciate any guidance on how to resolve this or escalate it properly. Thank you for any help or advice.

Abnormally Long “Waiting for Review” (22+ Days) and No Response from App Review
Hello everyone, I am currently experiencing an unusually long review delay along with no response to multiple inquiries, which is very different from my past experience. Current Situation • 22 days have passed since the initial submission. • After more than 10 days with no progress, I canceled and resubmitted the version twice. It is still stuck in “Waiting for Review.” • I have sent 3 inquiry emails. • I also had phone support through another team, and they relayed messages to the App Review team twice. There has still been no response. At this point, I cannot determine whether this is a simple review delay or some kind of account-level hold. From the Developer site, my account appears to be in good standing with no visible warnings or issues. When I asked in other communities about recent review times, most developers reported approvals within 2–3 days, so this does not appear to be a general system-wide delay. Has anyone experienced something similar recently? Is there any more direct or reliable way to receive a response from the App Review team beyond email inquiries? Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
