Hello Apple App Review Team and fellow developers, App ID: 6820842455 Submitted: October 14, 2026 Current Status: Waiting for Review Support Case ID: 102999541552 We have already raised multiple Apple Support tickets and submitted an expedited review request, but unfortunately, we have not received any response. Our planned launch date of October 20 has already passed, and this delay is affecting our business operations. We kindly request clarification: Why are new iOS applications experiencing such long review delays? Is additional verification required for first-time developers? We would appreciate any assistance or official update from Apple's App Review team. Thank you.

Hello Apple App Review Team, We are experiencing an unusually long App Store review delay with our first iOS application, We would appreciate assistance in understanding why our submission has not progressed. Application Details: App Name: Shiv Travels Apple App ID: 6820842455 Platform: iOS Version: 1.0.7 Submission Date: October 14, 2026 Current Status: Waiting for Review Developer: MindForge Quantix Pvt Ltd Submission History: October 9: Our earlier TestFlight beta build (1.0.0) was rejected under Guideline 2.1(a) due to an application crash on launch. October 14: We resolved the reported crash, tested the corrected version 1.0.7 on a real iOS device, and submitted it for App Store review. October 20: Our scheduled business launch date passed while the application remained in "Waiting for Review." October 23: The application is still waiting for review, approximately nine days after submission. Actions Already Taken: Submitted an expedited review request successfully. Raised multiple Apple Developer Support tickets. Followed up with Apple Support but have not received a response. Verified that the corrected application launches and functions successfully on a real iOS device. We understand that review timelines may vary. However, the extended delay and lack of communication are affecting our business launch plans. Could Apple or fellow developers please clarify: Are there broader App Store review delays affecting new applications? Is additional verification currently required for first-time iOS submissions? Is there another official way to obtain an update on a pending expedited review request? Has anyone recently experienced a similar delay, and how long did it take for the application to enter review? We would greatly appreciate any guidance or assistance. Thank you.
