Dear App Store Review Team,

I am writing to express my concern regarding the lack of response concerning the review of my application, which has been under review since June 2nd with no updates or further communication.

This delay is negatively impacting my business negotiations, as my clients already have access to the Android version and are now waiting for the iOS version. My professional credibility is being affected, as I cannot provide them with a clear response or estimated availability date.

I have made a significant investment in developing this iPhone version, purchasing the required hardware, licenses, and tools, trusting that I would receive professional and fair treatment from Apple.

I kindly request an update on the status of the review and a prompt resolution, as this situation is causing me considerable harm.

Sincerely,

Boost

I'm currently experiencing the same issue as you. I’ve already gone through this twice — my app was approved in versions 1.0 and 1.1, but all the newer versions have been consecutively rejected.

If you wait the full 7 days, the system will automatically treat your app as spam and reject it without a proper review. This issue can be identified when even your TestFlight beta builds or App Store submissions are delayed for 7 days, only to be rejected with the reason "Spam 4.3(A)".

This has already happened to two of my apps. Now my third app is facing the same problem. I’ve contacted the support team via email and phone, but they’ve been very irresponsible — only giving vague, generic responses.

Apple does not seem to value new developers. They clearly prioritize older, established ones. A company that claims to be professional is now proving its worth by moving backwards.

My app ID 6744330283 is also affected just like yours. Despite having gained user trust and over $3,000 in purchases so far, my app is still labeled as spam — which is completely absurd.
