Reply to iOS Spotlight indexing seems to be broken on iOS 17?
But what concerns me is that for some apps, on iOS 17 beta Spotlight Search does work, e.g. on both Venmo and WhatsApp you can search for friends on Spotlight. So I'm a little worried that Apple would consider this as not broken since it works for some apps. @baofromsf are you sure WhatsApp and Venmo - on iOS 17 devices - are built with latest Xcode 15 beta? The problem is related to apps built with latest beta SDK only.

Reply to App Store Review Guideline 5.1.1(v): What is understood as OFFERING the account deletion WITHIN the app
Hi @lablanca @MaheshBabu On our side Apple said what i've explained before, so: a) if you allows account creation then you should provide account deletion b) the deletion request should start from the app. WebView and Safari link are not allowed. c) the deletion request does not necessary need to be instant (but you should provide the average time to complete that - in our case 30 days) d) The process must follow the tap on button to delete user data wihtout any other user interaction (like mail, forms, webiew and so on) e) the flow (speaking about UX/UI) should be clear for the user and not hidden inside the application. I can report our example: we're gonna add a new button on user account to delete the user. Once tapped the user lands in a specific controller where our policy reports all the deletion info and once confirmed the user will be informed that our customer care will be in touch with him for confirm details and further checks if needed (pending payments, orders ...). In maximum 30days the user data will be deleted and the user will be signed out from our application. - Apple confirms this flow is acceptable -
