Reply to Rejection: Guideline 1.5 - Safety
The blog comment support approach was acceptable 15 years ago. It's still acceptable today. I don't remember whether or not I filed an appeal afterwords, but Rejection has been overturned. I'm not the one violating guidelines. The blame should go to the reviewer who cuts corners by relying on bots with no eyes. I've published 20+ apps This submission was probably my No. 400.

Reply to App review rejected due to using passkeys?
I submitted an app for beta app review. What is the thing that you refer to as the beta app review? If you casually use the word 'beta,' that action alone will prompt them to reject your submission. It is not possible to provide webauthn credentials like this. I don't know what 'this' is or why that's is not possible, but they are not going to take your word at its face value. If I were you, I would show them a screen-capture video to show them how things are put altogether.

Reply to First app rejected under 4.3(a) Design – Spam despite original code and assets — appeal guidance?
I replied in the review thread with a point-by-point response to each 4.3(a) factor and asked which app mine is believed to resemble You've asked what!? Which app of yours? You've said it's your only app. These days, they let a bot reject your submission a few seconds after they start reviewing it if the category you have chosen is very crowded. They are out of hand. I guess you have to tell them under the App information section how unique your app is, which sounds totally absurd, though, because you have to know how other apps similar to yours work.

Reply to Update to a 10-year-old macOS passport photo app rejected under "Guideline 1.1.6 - Safety - Objectionable Content"
Unless you show the description and the list of keywords, there is little that someone knows why your 10-year-old desktop application has been rejected. But let me suppose that the description says that you can create an official password photo size. If that's the case, it should raise a red flag unless you have proof that you are representing a government. Also, somebody mentioned that their passport app or application had been rejected at Reddit or somewhere several days ago. You probably want to run a search.

Reply to 4.3 Design Spam
Your app may be different from other dating apps. But your topic is pretty much the same as those of dating apps being rejected as spams. There is no app description. There is no list of keywords. You don't state the exact rejection statement. You don't seem to have read other topics under the same circumstances.

Reply to are new radio player effectively banned from appstore? guideline 5.2.3
At the current format shown in your screenshot, your app is unlikely to be accepted because the user would not be able to tell where your radio station list comes from. Even after you manage to tell where your data comes from, whether your submission will be accepted depends on the reviewer. There are difficult reviewers who literally play by the book. Sometimes, it will only take luck not to face these difficult people.

Reply to Appeal Guidance Request – Terminated Developer Account (Section 3.2(f)) – Case ID: 20000149214883
I may have read one or two successful stories where they said they had their account status reinstated. There are hundreds of topics if you search for 'Termination,' if not thousands. Why do you want to wait for someone to share their experience that may never come? I could help you find those topics. But I won't. helping someone who doesn't help themselves won't pay my bills.

Reply to Guideline 4.3(a): Spam rejections for music app. App Review seems to be auto-rejecting, not responding to questions.
Keywords: apple music,player,library,playlists,smart playlist,radio,dj,discover,albums,artists,spotify,songs I know it has something to do with music. And I have only heard of its name and have no clue as to how Spotify works. Yet, you are simply asking the reviewer to compare your app with it. It may be too late, but I would remove it if I were you. You should never enter apps that are to compete with yours in the keyword list.
