The App Store is the strictest place to place apps. The review takes longer and stricter than Google Play and Huawei App Gallery. In 2020, the AppStore rejected a million applications that were published for the first time and a million updates.
On the one hand, such a strict policy is good: it is easier for users to choose an application and be sure that it is safe. However, this is a real headache for developers.
For example, you can be refused publication if the application contains copyrighted content - even if it is in screenshots in the Apple store. And if the application is related to health, you will have to provide a description of the algorithms and the level of accuracy of the readings taken by the application.
We have compiled a checklist of obvious and not very obvious reasons why the AppStore rejects applications. In the article, we will reveal each item in more detail.
