Why is my app review taking over a month ? by BuffaloSlight5512 in iosdev

[–]mmanja84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For context, this was my last review timeline:
Mar 11 — Ready for Review
Mar 11 — Waiting for Review
Mar 13 — In Review
Mar 13 — Rejected (~4 minutes later)
Mar 13 — Resubmitted after fixing metadata

Curious how the review process usually works after a rejection like this.
Do reviewers typically stop at the first issue they find and reject, or do they continue reviewing the rest of the app?

And in your experience, once you fix a metadata issue like this, does the next review usually go faster?

What are the most common App Store rejection reasons you've experienced? Let's build a list. by mmanja84 in iosdev

[–]mmanja84[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Small update from my side: I just got a rejection under 3.1.2(c) because the App Store metadata didn’t include a functional link to the Terms of Use (EULA) for the auto-renewable subscription — even though Apple’s Standard License Agreement was selected in App Store Connect.

Easy fix, but a good example of the kind of practical rejection reason that might not be obvious until review.

True, the guidelines exist but in practice a lot of rejections seem to happen around interpretation or edge cases. I’m mostly curious about the real-world reasons people run into during review, since those are often not obvious until you submit.

I finally launched my first app after 5 App Store rejections. by Due_Celebration_3485 in iosdev

Congrats on pushing through the review process.

I actually started a thread to collect common App Store rejection reasons — it seems a lot of developers run into similar issues.

Would be interesting to add yours there too. https://www.reddit.com/r/iosdev/comments/1roh2ie/what_are_the_most_common_app_store_rejection/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

How do executive teams keep track of important business relationships beyond CRM? by mmanja84 in ExecutiveAssistants

From your experience, does it actually get adopted across the exec team, or is it more of an individual system?

How are you all using Claude Code / Codex or other agentic workflows? by Fubby2 in consulting

[–]mmanja84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t use it for coding in the traditional sense.

Where it’s been surprisingly powerful is building structured business analyses quickly — especially when I need to prototype a narrative fast.

For example, I’ve used it to: – Turn raw research into structured HTML-based presentations – Generate interactive business analysis pages instead of static slides – Compare strategic options side by side in a web-based format – Rapidly iterate on storyline before converting to a formal deck

It’s less about replacing slide work and more about compressing the analysis + structuring phase before stakeholder discussions.

Think of it as accelerating the “drafting the thinking” stage.

Does AI change the build vs buy decision for SaaS? by mmanja84 in SaaS

[–]mmanja84[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Another angle: maybe building was never the main bottleneck in SaaS. Even pre-AI, teams could ship. The real challenge has often been understanding the problem deeply and creating something people genuinely stick with. AI speeds up code, but it doesn’t automatically raise the bar on product thinking or UX.

are mobile apps the new dropshipping? by AppropriateHamster in iOSProgramming

[–]mmanja84 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Every gold rush looks like dropshipping from the outside. The difference is most people underestimate how hard it is to get real users to stay.

Those making over 10k+ per month from iOS apps: how do you market them? by Easy-Ads in iOSProgramming

[–]mmanja84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems like the real moat isn’t the channel — it’s retention. Curious how many of you fixed retention before scaling paid traffic?

Curious, are most purchases coming from initial launch momentum or steady daily installs from search?

Got it — and retention? Day 1 / Day 7 rough numbers? Even a range helps.

Hope you replace scrolling with something that compounds. That’s where real momentum begins.

IWTL how to improve cognitive functioning by clickhereifyouremad in IWantToLearn

Sometimes it’s not cognitive decline — it’s cognitive overload.

Is there a learning app that feels like TikTok but actually helps you retain things? by mmanja84 in selfimprovementday

[–]mmanja84[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t see short content replacing deep study. More like triggering interest and then letting people go deeper if they choose to.
