I have currently been on hold for three hours. It is sad how little apple prioritize or even cares about peoples time. 28 days without a review and you have officially waste 18 afternoons on hold. I cant believe I paid for this.

Im going to start posting daily updates of app review status just to count emails and phone called. hours on hold today=6 number of "senior advisors" that emailed back=4 Emails sent=31 Phone calls=47 change=0 Status= waiting for review

Its absolutely insane to me that an entire department stopped working or being usefule to anyone for an entire month now. No one is doing their job it seems as if apple gave them a vacation and forgot to tell developers no one will do there job for the foreseeable future. A heads that i paid for a service that doesnt exist would have been appreciated. Your own business support team even told me to break your guidelines and maybe someone would care to notice.

Our iOS app (1.0.0) was rejected Oct 21 under 2.3.4 (app preview framing) and 2.5.4 (audio/VoIP background modes). We replaced the previews, replied with a real-device recording of the voice feature, and resubmitted Oct 22. It's been Waiting for Review since, with no reply in App Store Connect. We've also contacted Developer Support. Is there anything else we should do, or is a longer wait normal after a 2.5.4 resubmission? Thanks.

Hello Apple Developer Support and App Review, Could you confirm whether anything further is needed for Ace BL (Apple ID 6815811308), iOS 1.0.0 build 482? Earlier submissions date to September and were removed/replaced. The current submission was sent October 22 and is Waiting for Review. App Review replied October 21; our October 22 response documents revised previews and real-device background audio/voice-call evidence. Today the expedited-review form confirmed “We’ll expedite review for Ace BL.” The separate App Review Status email form repeatedly returns “There was a problem processing your request,” so no new case ID was issued. Phone support is currently unavailable. How can we confirm that the current app and associated purchase/subscription items are correctly queued and identify any remaining action needed? We can respond promptly in App Store Connect. Thank you.

Tools are worthless if the service isnt being done.Review of an app is needed but not when it takes over a month to get a response. 17 phone calls over 5 different case numbers and no reply. Absolutely insane
