My app keep getting rejected after changing complete UI. It's an finance tool app. any advice Guideline 4.3(a) - Design - Spam We noticed your app shares a similar binary, metadata, and/or concept as apps submitted to the App Store by other developers, with only minor differences. Submitting similar or repackaged apps is a form of spam that creates clutter and makes it difficult for users to discover new apps. Next Steps Since we do not accept spam apps on the App Store, we encourage you to review your app concept and submit a unique app with distinct content and functionality. Resources Some factors that contribute to a spam rejection may include: Submitting an app with the same source code or assets as other apps already submitted to the App Store Creating and submitting multiple similar apps using a repackaged app template Purchasing an app template with problematic code from a third party Submitting several similar apps across multiple accounts

Hello brothers, I really need redeem code, please send me this code.🥺🙏🏻

My apple app rejected on 9 of July 2025 but I didn't recieve any confirmation on mail can you please provide any written confirmation why my mail is not approved with all possibe conditions.

We scheduled for a price rise for July 3rd. We have >90% of subscribers on a standard monthly subscription (without trials or offers), and we gave more than the requisite notice (we scheduled these on May 20). We also chose in the price increase flow to apply the new price to existing subscribers. On July 3rd, the price for new subscribers went up as expected. However, we are still seeing all our renewals at the old price. My own subscription to the app renewed today (July 15th) - but at the old price. In my Settings app, I can see that the next renewal (August 15th) will be at the new price. I also haven't had any notifications/email from Apple about the rise (which should happen 27 days before the rise, so will likely happen for me on July 19th....but that should've been June 19th). So it appears that while the new price will be applied to existing subscribers, it is happening a month after the scheduled price rise. Some of our customers are being contacted by Apple about the price rise...for August, when it should have already taken place. Given that we scheduled this way more than 27 days ahead, why would the price rise for existing subscribers not take place at the planned date? Are there other reasons that are not documented? The only two reasons we can see are a) insufficient planning notice and b) trial periods being respected - neither of which apply here. We can see significant cancellations from July 3rd in countries where customers have to opt-in for a price rise, primarily Germany. So it seems that the price rise definitely came into effect for our existing subscribers, causing opt-in cancellations, but the customers aren't actually paying the higher price for another cycle. Any ideas?

Hi, Dear Sir/Madam, I released the Chinese version of my app and it has got approval from Apple reviewer on last Friday. But I can't find it by searching the Chinese keyword of my app in Chinese Apple store market till this Monday. I have checked my app and found that the name and other information of the app has been correctly localized. Why can't I find it? Look forward to your reply. Best Wishes,

Hi guys, I am new to publishing applications on Apple Store. Now, I have a standalone application built by Python and packaged to an .app file by PyInstaller. I used PyCharm as IDE instead of Xcode. So far, I did codesign and notarization processes. How can I prepare it to release it on Apple Store? Is there any guide that I can follow to do it?

I want to transfer a few of my apps from my personal developer account to my company developer account. I registered my company in Hong Kong and registered it with Apple Developer, but now I cannot make the payment. I tried using my Airwallex bank cards (in Hong Kong, VISA) and my Thai bank cards (Mastercard and Visa), but I always encounter payment errors. I emailed Developer Support, but they did not help; they always tell me to try different cards or register again. It does not work. I tried four different bank cards, all of which are 100% functional. I tried everything I found on the internet: saving a card in Apple ID, switching my Apple ID to Hong Kong, and trying different addresses. Nothing is working. Please help!

Hi all, I have WeatherKit working on iOS and watchOS, but am having problems getting it to work on macOS.

Hi all, Has anyone here managed to get a Certificate of Tax Residency (for example, for 2025) from Apple’s Irish legal entity? What is the process to request this certificate? Do I need to contact Apple directly, or is it possible to get it from Irish tax authorities? Any advice or experience would be appreciated! Thanks!

Hi, We have previously created a Appls Ads account before around a week ago. And now everytime we login it brings us to the "create account" sign up page. When we fill this page in again with out details and press "Sign Up" it won't let us, as an account has already been associated with the emails. The problem is I also cannot contact support using the form on the website - Everytime I fill it in it says "please fix errors below" - Even though there are no errors. I have tried messaging various other apple support people to try and put me through specificaly to the Ads support but I am having no luck there.. So we are now stuck, we cannot login or sign up again - Any ideas?

I've been able to submit my app without issue so far until today, but it looks like app icon requirements either changed or being enforced differently? Validation failed Missing required icon file. The bundle does not contain an app icon for iPhone / iPod Touch of exactly '120x120' pixels, in .png format for iOS versions >= 10.0. To support older versions of iOS, the icon may be required in the bundle outside of an asset catalog. Make sure the Info.plist file includes appropriate entries referencing the file.

The others I cannot find slots for, to provide a generic icon even though they wont be used since my app is only for iOS18+ I attempted adding a new icon set "App Icon" with the 120x120 PNG but that did not seem to work so I removed it. Any suggestions? *note I am also using the .Icon file created by Icon Composer (v3)

Hi everyone, We’ve been working on integrating Apple’s App Store Connect API into our internal tools to backfill financial data and came across a couple of roadblocks that we’re hoping the community (or someone from Apple) can help with. Problem 1: FINANCE_DETAIL reports return 404 We’re calling the /v1/financeReports endpoint with the following parameters: filter[reportDate] = 2025-05 filter[reportType] = FINANCE_DETAIL filter[regionCode] = ZZ (also tried other specific country codes like AE, US, etc.) filter[vendorNumber] = <our_vendor_number> Even though the FINANCIAL report type works fine, whenever we use FINANCE_DETAIL, we keep getting: json Copy Edit { "errors": [{ "status": "404", "code": "NOT_FOUND", "detail": "No report is available for the selected date." }] } We’ve tested with different dates and region codes, but no luck. Problem 2: No USD data in the financial reports The reports we do get back (with reportType=FINANCIAL) only contain local currencies (e.g. AED, INR, etc.). We’re trying to figure out: Does Apple publish USD-converted proceeds anywhere via the API? Or, is there any official exchange rate mapping used internally by Apple that developers can access? We’re trying to keep our revenue dashboards consistent with what we see inside App Store Connect, so knowing how Apple handles currency conversion would be really helpful. Would appreciate any help, guidance, or workarounds from folks who’ve dealt with this before. Thanks in advance!

After posting a new version of our app, we used to have 80% of our userbase on the new version pretty quickly (usually 72 hours, sometimes less). Over the past few weeks, we've noticed that the App Store has throttled down app updates, and it now takes much longer for a new version of our app to reach 80% (approximately 15 days, so 5 times slower). He is an update graph before: And a similar update graph after: We've published several versions over the past couple of weeks, and we've seen the same slow update behavior for all of them. What could explain these differences ? At the time of this writing, the update graph has very slowly reached 80% and is now flat. In the past it would easily reach 90% (the last 10% were always slow to get).

We are an Apple Enterprise Developer account holder distributing an in-house iOS application via an itms-services installation workflow. On macOS devices with ARM architecture (Apple Silicon), our app is supported and can be installed as a compatible iOS application. However, when an update is detected, and we attempt to reinstall the app using a .plist manifest file (still via itms-services), the system installs the new version as a separate app—even though the bundle ID is exactly the same—resulting in duplicate app icons appearing on the macOS home screen. We would like to know: Is there a recommended approach to prevent this duplicate icon behavior? Is there a supported way on macOS to programmatically remove or replace the existing version of the iOS app before installing the updated version?

If I sell eSIMs from an Apple App, will I need to implement in-app purchase? Or can I use external payment processors like Stripe, PayPal, etc.?

I'm attempting to distribute a proprietary application (not released to the app store), and everytime I confirm the either validate or distribute in anyway Xcode crashes with no error message. I've seen a few posts regarding the agreements, but I have the free app agreement signed so that can't be it. I haven't had a problem previously with not having the paid agreement signed, but now i'm running into this issue. I've confirmed my ad-hoc profile and cert are all good and valid, so I'm unsure what else could be causing this issue. Not even getting prompted to submit a crash report.

I’m trying to add a free trial to my app. my app is currently offered for sale in the App Store. i just cannot figure my way through App Store Connect/App Information/MONETIZING/Subscriptions can I add free trial to an app that is already available to the public? any help will ba appreciated!

I wanted to add some emojis but when I copy and paste its coming as unicodes . Is it fine to use emoticons ?

Hi everyone, My iOS app performs only a GET request to an external server to receive a JSON with configuration data (e.g., app settings). It does not send any personal data — it's a read-only request used only to adjust app behavior. Since the app only performs a GET request to the server and does not send any data from the user, no data is collected or stored. In App Store Connect > App Privacy, is it correct to select: "No, we do not collect data from this app"? Just want to confirm this is acceptable before submitting. Thanks!

Hi, One of my application doesn't get rating updates on AppStore. On https://appstoreconnect.apple.com/ Ratings and Reviews page I see that app got 19 Ratings with average 3.8 out of 5. But on AppStore it just have 5 ratings with average 3.4 out of 5. See attached screenshots: AppStore: AppStore Connect: . Please help me to figure out with this issue and hope we can fix rating on AppStore page accordingly to AppStore Connect. Thanks, Alex
