I wonder why App Review only replies to a few posts. [quote='898551022, App Review, /thread/838804?answerId=898551022#898551022'] Thank you for your post. We have escalated your support case to Developer Support. The App Review team will contact you in App Store Connect once the review is complete. [/quote] And other posts were ignored. As developers, we should look for a pattern. Is it the time of the post? The post title? The style? Anyway, while I’m waiting for my app to be approved, I have a lot of time. I’ll study that. :)

[quote='839976021, NabIDEV, /thread/839976, /profile/NabIDEV'] Has anyone experienced a similar situation? If so, how was it resolved? [/quote] Yes, we are, and we wrote here, sent messages to Apple support, and tried to call, but nothing works. I guess we should try to find a manager or someone inside Apple who really cares to solve this problem. I will try to email Apple managers today.

I guess no one at Apple sees these posts—we’re just talking to ourselves.

New record “Waiting For Review” since June 25.

New record “Waiting For Review” since June 25.

No you good, the normal now is 3 weeks. for others it could be months. Accept the new reality—consider creating another app while your first one is under review.

I guess you should read this.(https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/838152)

@akhil_Dev45 Don't give up. Fight for your rights.

I'm a 50-year-old developer. I was writing code with the toolchain before Apple even built the App Store. So let's be clear about who's actually in this queue. If a trillion-dollar company can't handle its own developers' support requests, and can't absorb a change it created itself, then what exactly are the rest of us supposed to do? The problem isn't developers asking for help. The problem is a company that size having no working answer when they do. My app has been on the store for more than 10 years — since before this AI wave existed. This submission is a critical bug fix. If Apple were being smart about this, they'd fast-track small updates to established apps with a decade-long track record and let the brand-new submissions wait. That's basic risk management. Instead it's inverted. And look around this forum. The developers stuck in "Waiting for Review" aren't spammers submitting the same binary fifty times. They're mostly long-time, hard-working developers with real apps and real users. That's who's suffering. So why @Tomato defend this behavior? If you love Apple the way we do, you'd stand up and give them honest advice — not invent reasons to justify what they're doing. Making excuses for a broken process doesn't help Apple. It just helps it stay broken.

@App Review and what if Developer Support does nothing while my app has been stuck for over a month? The app is stuck on "WAITING FOR REVIEW." No one is looking at our apps. Support keeps saying they will help, but they do nothing.

We are not alone; hundreds of developers have the same problem. It appears that Apple is aware of the issue, but they cannot fix it. Same situation here—I've been waiting for a review for over a month. I've posted on this forum many times, but nothing ever changes. I have several case IDs, and their email replies are completely random. Submission ID 891c1b55-f353-4bf8-bb81-609b1c29a5cc

I see @App Review has finally replied to someone. What about the hundreds of developers who are experiencing the same issue? @rtkolabs has been waiting for a week. My app has been on the App Store for over 10 years, and I have been waiting for a review of a critical bug fix for three weeks. Submission ID: 891c1b55-f353-4bf8-bb81-609b1c29a5cc

Your problem is not an easy one—no one will ever reply, and no one will be able to help you. It seems like some apps are lost in the Matrix for random reasons. We are not alone; hundreds of developers have the same problem. It appears that Apple is aware of the issue, but they cannot fix it. I guess we should go to the media so the big boss becomes aware of this situation and fires some lazy employees. Same situation here—I've been waiting for a review for over a month. I've posted on this forum many times, but nothing ever changes. I have several case IDs, and their email replies are completely random, like responses from a malfunctioning robot.
