8 Reasons Apple Will Reject Your App
It is not uncommon for iOS developers to think
that just having a brilliant app concept will get
their apps easily published on the App Store.
This is often the case for newbie developers if
not for the experienced ones. They conveniently
forget that there are many hurdles to cross
before their apps make way to the App Store and
earn accolades. While Apple has come a long way
ever since its inception and the launch of the
very first app on the App Store, some things
still havent changed. This includes the
Cupertino-based tech-giants obsession with
quality and finesse. It emphasizes the same when
it comes to apps submitted for review. And even
when everything is done to perfection by the
developers and designers, there is still no
guarantee that the app will be approved or the
exact duration taken by the reviewers to approve
the app. However, certain websites such as App
Review Times, track average App Store review
times for iOS as well as Mac App Store. Created
by Shiny Development, the website gets the data
crowdsourced from developers. According to the
latest statistics on the website, Apple takes as
many as 7 days on an average to approve iOS apps,
which is based on 267 reviews in the last 14
days. This data may tend to vary over a period of
time, depending on various factors and there are
always exceptions such as the app, which was
approved in 2 hours

1. Bugs If there is one thing that can taint
your image as an app developer, then it has to be
bugs in the app and most certainly, Apple will
reject any app that contains bugs or crashes.
Therefore, make it a point to completely and
thoroughly test your app to check for bugs and
crashes before you submit it for review. 2.
Broken links Any link within your app should be
functional. Right from the user support link to
subscription links to your privacy policy, the
links need to work. Any sort of broken link in
the app will ultimately lead to its rejection by
Apple. 3. Placeholder content Before sending
your app for review, make sure that all the
images and text in the app are complete. Apple
will reject apps that appear to be in progress
with not ready to be distributed placeholder
content.

4. Incomplete information Dont forget to
specify all the details required for reviewing
your app in the App Review Information section.
There may be some features in the section, where
you may need to sign in. In such cases, enter a
valid username and password. When it comes to
special configurations, dont forget to include
the specifics. 5. Wrong descriptions Clearly
mention your apps functionalities in its
description as well as in the screenshots. This
is important as it helps users get a better
understanding of the app and gives them a
positive App Store experience. 6. Misleading
users Another crucial thing you need to
understand before going ahead with your apps
submission is not misleading the users. In
essence, the app should deliver all the features
and functionalities mentioned it should live up
to the expectations of the users.

7. Average UI Apple rejects anything that is
substandard, including the apps submitted for
review. Thus, it goes without saying that you
need to make sure that your app has a neat,
user-friendly interface that speaks tons about
its quality. It also needs to abide by Apples
design guidelines as well as UI design dos and
donts. 8. Web content Apple wants each of its
apps to be engaging and useful to the users. It
also expects app developers and designers to make
the best use of the unique features of iOS when
it comes to websites, web content and web
interactions. This is something you need to
remember at the time of submitting your app for
review.
