# Apple App Store Submission & Rejection Handling
|
|
23
|
+
|
|
24
|
+
## Overview
|
|
25
|
+
|
|
26
|
+
Parse Apple rejection feedback, implement targeted fixes, update App Store Connect metadata, and resubmit โ covering the complete cycle from rejection email to approved build.
|
|
27
|
+
|
|
28
|
+
## When to Use
|
|
29
|
+
|
|
30
|
+
- Apple review team sends a rejection email
|
|
31
|
+
- App fails automated pre-review checks (binary rejected at upload)
|
|
32
|
+
- Preparing metadata for first-time submission (screenshots, keywords, privacy labels)
|
|
33
|
+
- Resolving App Store Connect errors before submitting for review
|
|
34
|
+
|
|
35
|
+
## Workflow
|
|
36
|
+
|
|
37
|
+
### 1. Parse the Rejection
|
|
38
|
+
|
|
39
|
+
Read the full rejection email. Extract and list:
|
|
40
|
+
|
|
41
|
+
- **Guideline numbers** violated (e.g., 2.1, 4.2.0, 5.1.1)
|
|
42
|
+
- **Code-level issues** โ missing entitlements, incorrect privacy strings, sandbox violations
|
|
43
|
+
- **Metadata issues** โ wrong screenshot sizes, subtitle policy, keyword stuffing
|
|
44
|
+
- **UX issues** โ crashes described by reviewer, broken flows, missing functionality
|
|
45
|
+
|
|
46
|
+
Create a numbered fix plan: one item per rejection point, with the type of fix needed.
|
|
47
|
+
|
|
48
|
+
### 2. Classify Fixes by Type
|
|
49
|
+
|
|
50
|
+
| Type | Location |
|
|
51
|
+
|------|----------|
|
|
52
|
+
| Privacy usage strings missing | `Info.plist` |
|
|
53
|
+
| Entitlement missing/wrong | `<AppName>.entitlements` |
|
|
54
|
+
| Crash or broken feature | Source code |
|
|
55
|
+
| Screenshots wrong size/content | App Store Connect |
|
|
56
|
+
| Keywords/subtitle/description | App Store Connect |
|
|
57
|
+
| Build number conflict | Xcode + App Store Connect |
|
|
58
|
+
|
|
59
|
+
### 3. Implement Code Fixes
|
|
60
|
+
|
|
61
|
+
**Privacy permission strings** (`Info.plist`):
|
|
62
|
+
|
|
63
|
+
```xml
|
|
64
|
+
<key>NSMicrophoneUsageDescription</key>
|
|
65
|
+
<string>Used for voice input during focus sessions.</string>
|
|
66
|
+
|
|
67
|
+
<key>NSCalendarsUsageDescription</key>
|
|
68
|
+
<string>Used to sync tasks with your calendar.</string>
|
|
69
|
+
```
|
|
70
|
+
|
|
71
|
+
**Entitlements** (`<AppName>.entitlements`):
|
|
72
|
+
|
|
73
|
+
```xml
|
|
74
|
+
<key>com.apple.security.app-sandbox</key>
|
|
75
|
+
<true/>
|
|
76
|
+
<key>com.apple.security.network.client</key>
|
|
77
|
+
<true/>
|
|
78
|
+
<key>com.apple.security.files.user-selected.read-write</key>
|
|
79
|
+
<true/>
|
|
80
|
+
```
|
|
81
|
+
|
|
82
|
+
**Sandbox violations** โ remove `NoEscapeBlock` patterns, replace deprecated APIs, use only sandboxed file access via Security-Scoped Bookmarks when needed.
|
|
83
|
+
|
|
84
|
+
### 4. Build and Archive
|
|
85
|
+
|
|
86
|
+
```bash
|
|
87
|
+

```
|
|
104
|
+
|
|
105
|
+
Validate codesigning before upload:
|
|
106
|
+
|
|
107
|
+
```bash
|
|
108
|
+
codesign --verify --deep --strict --verbose=4 build/export/<AppName>.app
|
|
109
|
+
spctl --assess --verbose=4 build/export/<AppName>.app
|
|
110
|
+
```
|
|
111
|

120
|
+
- **Keywords**: 100-char total limit, comma-separated, no spaces after commas
|
|
121
|
+
- **Screenshots**: exact pixel dimensions per device type (check Apple's current spec)
|
|
122
|
+
- **Privacy Nutrition Labels**: must accurately reflect data collected/linked to user
|
|
123

133
|
+
### 7. Submit and Track
|
|
134
|
+
|
|
135

136
|
+
2. In App Store Connect: select the new build, fill notes, **Submit for Review**
|
|
137
|
+
3. Typical re-review: 24โ48h
|
|
138
|
+
4. If rejected again: respond in the **Resolution Center** thread (same case number)
|
|
139
|
+
5. Escalate via Resolution Center for policy disagreements โ do not open a new submission
|
|
140
|
+

|
141
|
+
## Build Number Protocol
|
|
142
|
+
|
|
143
|
+
Apple rejects builds with a duplicate build number. Increment `CFBundleVersion` in `Info.plist` or Xcode target settings before every upload:
|
|
144
|
+
|
|
145
|
+
```bash
|
|
146
|
+
# Bump build number (e.g., 9 โ 10)
|
|
147
|
+
xcrun agvtool new-version -all 10
|
|
148
|
+
```
|
|
149
|
+
|
|
150
|
+
## Verification
|
|
151
|
+
|
|
152
|
+
- [ ] Every rejection guideline number has a corresponding fix in the plan
|
|
153
|
+
- [ ] `xcodebuild archive` exits 0 with no warnings about entitlements
|
|
154
|
+
- [ ] `codesign --verify` passes
|
|
155
|
+
- [ ] App Store Connect shows build status as "Ready to Submit"
|
|
156

# Apple App Store Submission & Rejection Handling
|
|
24
|
+
|
|
25
|
+
## Overview
|
|
26
|
+
|
|
27
|
+
Parse Apple rejection feedback, implement targeted fixes, update App Store Connect metadata, and resubmit โ covering the complete cycle from rejection email to approved build.
|
|
28
|
+
|
|
29
|
+
## When to Use
|
|
30
|
+
|
|
31
|
+
- Apple review team sends a rejection email
|
|
32
|
+
- App fails automated pre-review checks (binary rejected at upload)
|
|
33
|
+
- Preparing metadata for first-time submission (screenshots, keywords, privacy labels)
|
|
34
|
+
- Resolving App Store Connect errors before submitting for review
|
|
35
|
+
|
|
36
|
+
## Workflow
|
|
37
|
+
|
|
38
|
+
### 1. Parse the Rejection
|
|
39
|
+
|
|
40
|
+
Read the full rejection email. Extract and list:
|
|
41
|
+
|
|
42
|
+
- **Guideline numbers** violated (e.g., 2.1, 4.2.0, 5.1.1)
|
|
43
|
+
- **Code-level issues** โ missing entitlements, incorrect privacy strings, sandbox violations
|
|
44
|
+
- **Metadata issues** โ wrong screenshot sizes, subtitle policy, keyword stuffing
|
|
45
|
+
- **UX issues** โ crashes described by reviewer, broken flows, missing functionality
|
|
46
|
+
|
|
47
|
+
Create a numbered fix plan: one item per rejection point, with the type of fix needed.
|
|
48
|
+
|
|
49
|
+
### 2. Classify Fixes by Type
|
|
50
|
+
|
|
51
|
+
| Type | Location |
|
|
52
|
+
|------|----------|
|
|
53
|
+
| Privacy usage strings missing | `Info.plist` |
|
|
54
|
+
| Entitlement missing/wrong | `<AppName>.entitlements` |
|
|
55
|
+
| Crash or broken feature | Source code |
|
|
56
|
+
| Screenshots wrong size/content | App Store Connect |
|
|
57
|
+
| Keywords/subtitle/description | App Store Connect |
|
|
58
|
+
| Build number conflict | Xcode + App Store Connect |
|
|
59
|
+
|
|
60
|
+
### 3. Implement Code Fixes
|
|
61
|
+
|
|
62
|
+
**Privacy permission strings** (`Info.plist`):
|
|
63
|
+
|
|
64
|
+
```xml
|
|
65
|
+
<key>NSMicrophoneUsageDescription</key>
|
|
66
|
+
<string>Used for voice input during focus sessions.</string>
|
|
67
|
+
|
|
68
|
+
<key>NSCalendarsUsageDescription</key>
|
|
69
|
+
<string>Used to sync tasks with your calendar.</string>
|
|
70
|
+
```
|
|
71
|
+
|
|
72
|
+
**Entitlements** (`<AppName>.entitlements`):
|
|
73
|
+
|
|
74
|
+
```xml
|
|
75
|
+
<key>com.apple.security.app-sandbox</key>
|
|
76
|
+
<true/>
|
|
77
|
+
<key>com.apple.security.network.client</key>
|
|
78
|
+
<true/>
|
|
79
|
+
<key>com.apple.security.files.user-selected.read-write</key>
|
|
80
|
+
<true/>
|
|
81
|
+
```
|
|
82
|
+
|
|
83
|
+
**Sandbox violations** โ remove `NoEscapeBlock` patterns, replace deprecated APIs, use only sandboxed file access via Security-Scoped Bookmarks when needed.
|
|
84
|
+
|
|
85
|
+
### 4. Build and Archive

### 5. Update App Store Connect Metadata
|
|
114
|
+
|
|
115
|
+
Navigate: **My Apps โ [App] โ App Store tab**
|
|
116
|
+
|
|
117
|
+
Common metadata fixes:
|
|
118
|
+
|
|
119
|
+
- **App name**: max 30 chars
|
|
120
|
+
- **Subtitle**: max 30 chars, no duplicate keywords from the title field
|
|
121
|
+
- **Keywords**: 100-char total limit, comma-separated, no spaces after commas
|
|
122
|
+
- **Screenshots**: exact pixel dimensions per device type (check Apple's current spec)
|
|
123
|
+
- **Privacy Nutrition Labels**: must accurately reflect data collected/linked to user
|
|
124
|
+
- **Build selection**: select the newly uploaded build before submitting
|
|
125
|
+
|
|
126
|
+
### 6. Write Reviewer Notes
|
|
127
|
+
|
|
128
|
+
In the submission form, fill **Notes for Reviewer**:
|
|
129
|
+
|
|
130
|
+
- Explain each rejection point and what was changed
|
|
131
|
+
- Reference specific guideline numbers: "Addressing 2.1 โ added NSMicrophoneUsageDescription to Info.plist"
|
|
132
|
+
- If a feature requires special credentials to test, provide test account details
|
|
133
|
+
|
|
134
|
+
### 7. Submit and Track
|
|
135
|
+
|
|
136
|
+
1. Upload via **Xcode Organizer โ Distribute App โ App Store Connect**
|
|
137
|
+
2. In App Store Connect: select the new build, fill notes, **Submit for Review**
|
|
138
|
+
3. Typical re-review: 24โ48h
|
|
139
|
+
4. If rejected again: respond in the **Resolution Center** thread (same case number)
|
|
140
|
+
5. Escalate via Resolution Center for policy disagreements โ do not open a new submission
|
|
141
|
+
|
|
142
|
+
## Build Number Protocol
|
|
143
|
+
|
|
144
|
+
Apple rejects builds with a duplicate build number. Increment `CFBundleVersion` in `Info.plist` or Xcode target settings before every upload:
|
|
145
|
+
|
|
146
|
+
```bash
|
|
147
|
+
# Bump build number (e.g., 9 โ 10)
|
|
148
|
+
xcrun agvtool new-version -all 10
|
|
149
|
+
```
|
|
150
|
+
|
|
151
|
+
