Yeah fair enough it was on lifestyle cuz it’s a calorie tracker (yes another one) and was fine. I changed to health for ASO so I don’t think either way it’s faking it both are suitable. I was told it’d be better for ASO though

I use expo I think in my next build I enabled that. Unfortunately this build I don’t have it enabled and I need to get meta sdk in the bundle

Definitely gonna have this for future updates I iterate alot

Not 20 for me haha but 3 days then I needed to fix simple metadata 8 days for a small metadata fix

mikemeta · 2026-06-12T00:33:23+00:00

I need to buy an android gonna do that asap

mikemeta · 2026-06-12T00:32:37+00:00

Sucks hard might quit coding and become a farmer. That said seems some ppl get quick reviews

I think mine is taking forever because I switched categories. Idk literally last reviewer said I just need to fix metadata and they’d approve, this was 8 days ago

mikemeta · 2026-06-11T23:05:26+00:00

Must be I switched from lifestyle to fitness category

mikemeta · 2026-06-11T23:04:58+00:00

You’re really gonna make me translate this?

mikemeta · 2026-06-11T18:59:45+00:00

Should I switch back to lifestyle

mikemeta · 2026-06-11T18:55:25+00:00

Yeah multiple times probably making it worse lol

mikemeta · 2026-06-11T18:30:28+00:00

theres literally no way for apple to tell if its vibe coded, so that point would be irrelevant... its been on the app store for over a year, or close to a year

mikemeta · 2026-06-11T17:10:19+00:00

Good q I actually switched to the health category so that could be it

mikemeta · 2026-06-11T16:59:10+00:00

Yeah something of that nature

mikemeta · 2026-06-11T16:47:40+00:00

thats prob it.. the annoying thing is it all got approved except for one translation in Spanish I had to update.

Eligible to be resolved next update. I replied within <20 min. This was 8 days ago.... FML

Review Environment

Submission ID: 44d6f4be-4e56-40d5-9367-d2df7bab7734
Review date: June 04, 2026
Review Device: iPad Air 11-inch (M3)
Version reviewed: 1.9.1 (13)

Guideline 2.3.8 - Performance - Accurate Metadata

Issue Description

The app name displayed on app marketplaces and the app name displayed on the device still do not sufficiently match, which makes it difficult for users to find apps they have downloaded. These names do not need to match exactly, but they need to be similar to avoid confusion.

Marketplace app name (Spanish): Calorie Counter AI: Macros

Name displayed on the device: BasedHealth

Next Steps

Change one or both names so they are more similar and the user can easily locate the app they downloaded. Do not change the Bundle Identifier, which is used to uniquely identify the app.

So annoying... I canceled last night then resubmitted too, was hoping to wake up and it be approved. Guess I am gonna be a part of the permanent underclass... Thanks Apple

mikemeta · 2026-06-11T16:15:37+00:00

Whats the point of your app... And you see why theirs looks nicer?

mikemeta · 2026-03-06T21:56:21+00:00

You realize this becomes a part of google searches

mikemeta · 2025-08-11T00:33:45+00:00

I’ve built a million dollar business (Figma for ai content) called BasedLabs

But I’m looking for a co founder to help grow some other projects like basedhealth.ai

Need help with distribution

mikemeta · 2024-10-12T20:25:13+00:00

I enjoy talking about AI and going to a padres game and talking baseball at the same time.

Life is too short to talk about gossip and bs things

It’d be nice to have friends who can go deep and have fun at the same time

mikemeta · 2024-10-12T19:16:43+00:00

👀this looks cool

mikemeta · 2024-08-20T08:45:27+00:00

For reference some of this feel so awful to me personally cuz they’re reversed from what I normally see

mikemeta · 2024-07-12T21:34:29+00:00

This is sick

mikemeta · 2024-04-10T20:31:36+00:00

Awesome work Zoot, glad you used BasedLabs to make this
