App Stuck in “Waiting for Review”

I submitted my app for review through App Store Connect two days ago, but the status has remained “Waiting for Review” without any updates. All required app information, agreements, compliance details, screenshots, and review notes have been completed. I have not received any messages indicating that additional action is required. Is this review waiting time currently normal, or should I contact App Review Support? Has anyone recently experienced a similar delay? Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Abdev19,

The review of my app (the first one) took about 4 to 5 days.

I think Apple does everything they can to get app the app's checks a.s.a.p but now a days with vibe coding in Xcode app is build 10 times faster than the past, so the submissions are also more likely 10 times more.

Just wait and enjoy your time, will be ok.

Thank you for your post. We have escalated your support case to Developer Support. The Developer Support team will contact you directly. If you continue to experience issues during review, please contact us.

We are experiencing the same issue with our first app submission.

Our app has been in “Waiting for Review” for almost a week, with no updates or messages from the App Review team. All required information, agreements, compliance details, screenshots, and review notes have been completed.

This delay is currently blocking our launch and subsequent releases. Could the App Review team please check whether there is any issue with our submission or escalate the case to Developer Support?

Thank you.

I am experiencing the same issue.

My app update has been stuck in “Waiting for Review” since Wednesday morning. I also requested an Expedited Review, as this update contains important bug fixes for existing users, but the status has not changed yet.

Is this review waiting time currently normal,

I think all of us must acknowledge the situation and brace for it, by anticipating submission before the app publication planned date.

Reviews taking a few days are now usual. Pounding on reviewers to ask for expedited review appears useless, as well as posting messages here. It just clutters the forum with posts on which no developer can do anything (except lament with the OP) and where App Review is always the same formatted answer.

@abdev19, waiting from Wednesday morning till Friday is not a huge delay. Wish you to get rapidly your app reviewed. When so, don't forget to close the thread.
