Reply to App Store Rejection - REAL MONEY GAMBLING
We would like to clarify that KonKan is a traditional rummy-style card game based on player strategy and card melding. It is not a casino game, nor does it feature real-money betting, sports predictions, or tips. Our app utilizes a 100% closed-loop virtual economy. The virtual items inside the game have absolutely no real-world cash value, cannot be cashed out, and cannot be exchanged for real money. Because the app does not contain real-money gaming elements, we have already selected 'Yes' for Simulated Gambling in our Age Rating questionnaire. This correctly places the app in the 17+ age category. Checking 'Yes' to the primary 'Gambling' toggle would incorrectly indicate to our users that real money is involved. We kindly ask that you review our current 'Simulated Gambling' designation, as it perfectly reflects our social, casual card gameplay.

Reply to Repeated Guideline 5.6 Rejections With No Specific Reason — Appeal Also Unanswered
Common Triggers for Guideline 5.6 Rejections Aggressive or Deceptive Paywalls: Using exit discount offers (dropping the price the moment a user tries to close the paywall) or showing back-to-back paywalls during onboarding. Asking for Ratings Too Early: Requesting an App Store rating or review during the initial onboarding flow or on the very first launch (violating Guideline 5.6.3 enforcement). AI-Generated or Template-Like Behavior: Rapidly submitted AI wrappers or apps sharing generic binary structures that automated filters flag as suspicious or low-effort.Remote Configuration / Feature Flags: Using services like Firebase Remote Config or dynamic script bridges where functionality could theoretically change post-approval, which automated scanners mistake for hidden code. Incomplete Metadata or Placeholder Content: Leaving dummy text, "coming soon" placeholders, or failing to supply clear login credentials/demo modes for review. Goodluck.
