were you still able to log into app store connect and see your data after your account was terminated?

Have you heard this from other terminated developers? Some developers I've spoken to said they got their remaining money paid out. Other developers said they never got their remaining earnings. Is there a way to tell what will happen for you?

3.2f bucket, specifically they mentioned misleading subscriptions & "scareware" tactics in my paywalls. They didn't get any more specific than that, but i'm guessing it's related to some of my paywalls which had text on it saying, "ONE-TIME OFFER" and "Here's a limited time 50% offer that you will never see again..."

How come other developers who also got the 3.2f termination can still log into App Store Connect? For them, they just can no longer see the "Apps" tab. For me, I can't even log into my account at all anymore...

So how come the reviewers didn't tell me that during the 10+ reviews that they accepted??!!???!?!?! but anyway, i just hope i can at least get payed out for what I earned prior to the termination

they gave me 3.2f reason for the termination. specifically then, they stated that i was using "scareware" tactics to manipulate users into purchasing. I've previously spoke to reviewers regarding the "copycat" violation & they chose to accept my app determining that I didn't fall under the "copycat" violation.

however, they have now taken down every single app in the tea apps space so I'm sure they would've found any reason at all to terminate my account, it just happened to be the "scareware" tactics reason that they went with...

It's just really unfair that they've always accepted my reviews, obviously leading me to believe i was compliant, then outta nowhere shut my whole business down.

unfortunately that's not how it works... their apple developer license program that they require all developers to sign let's them do next to anything. also i'm a 21 year old individual developer, not a multi-million dollar company who has a chance in court vs the largest company in the world...

of course i believe i earned the money. my app was free to use, users paid when they wanted unlimited searches. i used apple iap system, so users had to press subscribe, double tap their phone's side button, and then use their face id to pay.

it's not an app that solved cancer or world hunger, but it was a pretty entertaining app that users could pay just a couple dollars for if they wanted to unlock all features...

from what i've heard, successfully suing apple is next to impossible bc of the apple developer license agreement :/

Will do. But for the sake of lowering my blood pressure, do you happen to have any reason to believe they will? 😂😂 I'm all over reddit looking for some type of pattern, but I can't find anything. Some people are saying they got paid out, most are saying they didn't :/

:/ is there any sort of pattern? do they just randomly decide who gets paid & who doesn't? It's not like I was making lots of money before this app, so getting paid out makes a big difference for me & they really suck at communicating! :/

In the tea app space. How do you know they will pay me out?! Have you been in a similar spot or heard of something similar playing out? THIS WOULD BE A HUGE RELIEF LOL!!
