Besides😁, me personally? I think the spamming of the expedited review request would contribute far less complication moving forward, rather than people deciding to delete their submissions with intentions to resubmit them. Why? Maybs in hopes that it fixes any potential systematic issues or errors. And aha, yes, i will charge my phone now. 🥳😂 lol

Well, presumably so, these are people who are trying to make progress towards getting their apps released... So waiting, for however long, to possibly run into issues during the submission means more time to correct it and more time to update their submission to resubmit it for review. Unfortunately, if the expedited review request is, in fact, being spammed, It's quite likely that the majority of them were already showing the "waiting for review" status for an extended period of time.🙂

It made that guestimation, or assessment, based on its ability to quickly analyze the posts regarding this issue from... you guessed it, THIS FORUM. It doesnt appear many people, if any, are receiving direct communication specifically on this delay. But , if you get in contact with apple, please, let us all know and i guess we will just take 'your' word for if the majority of us are still awaiting a response. Why? Because this is a forum and we all are just wanting to he informed. Thanks :)

And, many people, according to this FORUM that you and I both happen to be apart of just so happens to our main confirmation that many others developers are experiencing a similar issue. And you know what else we all are "collectively" realizing? With no direct phone number, it's seemingly impossible to get in touch with support at this moment. Rather you found the information helpful or not, the AI overview provided that guestimation based on the COMPILATION of complaints regarding this.

Before questioning the validity of my screenshots, please remember that this a quite literally a forum.. From my understanding, apple does not reply to every post requesting assistance. Secondly, a forum is made to either spark discussion, answer questions, or reach resolution. With that being said, there are many posts regarding this same exact issue. Apple, themselves, have not yet notified us of any issues regarding their current review processing timeframe.
