App Store Listing Rules《2016 Latest Version of App Store Application Review Guidelines Full Version》 We are glad that you are willing to invest your talent and time in making applications for iOS. For tens of thousands of developers, this is a very beneficial experience in terms of career and economy. We hope to help you join this successful group. We have released the App Store Review Guidelines, hoping to help you avoid problems in the process of developing apps and speed up the approval process when submitting apps. We think of apps differently than we do books and songs, which we don't make. If you want to criticize a religion, write a book; if you want to describe sex, write a book or the past or create a medical app, it gets complicated, but we decided not to allow certain kinds of content on the App Store. So it may be helpful to understand our broad topics: There are a lot of children downloading apps from our store and parental controls are great for protecting children, but you also need to cooperate, so please be aware that we have policies in place to protect children. We have over a million apps in the App Store, and if your app doesn't have utility, uniqueness, or provide some lasting entertainment, or if your app is just terrible, it probably won't be accepted. If your app looks like it was thrown together in a few days, or if you were trying to publish your first practice app on the store to show off to your friends, be prepared to be rejected. There are a lot of serious developers out there who don't want their high-quality apps to be buried under apps that were made in their spare time. We will reject any content or application behavior that crosses the bottom line. You may ask, what is the bottom line? As one Supreme Court Justice said, 'I know it when I see it,' and we think you will know it when it crosses the line. If your app is rejected, we have a Review Board for you to review, and it won't help if you go to the media and slander us. If you attempt to cheat the system, such as attempting to game the review process, steal user data, plagiarize other developers' work, or manipulate user reviews, your app will be removed and you will be excluded from the developer program. This is a living document. New regulations may be added at any time because new applications may cause new problems, and your application may change the rules. Finally, we love the App Store and your work, and we're really working hard to create the best platform in the world for you to showcase your talents and make a living at the same time. If this guide sounds like we’re control freaks, that’s probably because we’re obsessed with our users and want to make sure they have a great experience using our products, just as most of you do. 1.

Please explain to me, where do the points in the app come from and where do they go? 11. The app said there were ads, but the reviewer said there were no ads after playing the game.

Your software added a mandatory comment function: there is only one button to click to enter the comment, and it must be changed to a prompt box to remind the user whether to enter the comment. 21.

There is a button in the app to save pictures to the album, and in the plist there is an Application supports iTunes file sharing set to yes, so it was ruthlessly rejected. 46. Documents downloaded by users in the application cannot be stored in the Document folder and will be rejected. 47. In order to obtain full functionality of the review application, we need the relevant hardware. I used to record an operation video and upload it and then passed it. This time I recorded it twice and the same reply was the same. I don’t know what kind of wind it was. 48. I made a social software, but I didn’t provide an account and password when it was launched, which led to the inability to enter during the review. reject. ps: Can’t I see such a big registration? Can't see it? 49. The activity post posted by the user in the forum module mentioned that the Android platform and WP platform was rejected. Then I said I had no problem. He said he contacted him by phone within three working days. It has been 4-5 days and has not been in touch yet. 50. The button position does not conform to the ios style. 51. A joke app has the word "comic" on the boot screen. Apple reviewed it and said that it contains vulgar and uncivilized text, and then it was rejected. 52. The QQ login function, but it won’t work without downloading QQ. 53. The first time there is no function to report to the user. I only have Sina and QQ login and do not have their own login registration system (the QQ SDK does not install QQ prompt is download). It seems that there is still a user agreement, but that review took one month anyway. 54. The reviewer cannot load content when opening the app, generally because of domestic server problems. The solution is to record an app operation video, put it on youtube, and send it to Apple, which has been tried and done. 55. The interface was too ugly and rejected, so I changed the background image and passed. 56. iPad is written as iPad. 57. The registration function is not provided, and it is denied... The registration is open to pass; 58. The button image is similar to the iPhone desktop icon and is denied; 59. Because the problem of iCloud cloud backup is denied, the backup function is turned off and passed. 60. When using a third-party SDK, there is a prompt message that blocks the status bar. 61. There is a link on the picture. 62. Because there are android keywords that are rejected, because there are android keywords that are rejected, because there are swfit keywords that are not published, it is rejected. It was rejected because the button click was invalid. 63. The content contains the iPad 64. Pictures with a middle finger 65. The IDFA display ad does not provide videos 66. The registration page does not add the pr avicy declaration file. 67. After iTunes upgraded, the grading has inexplicably changed from 12+ to 4+. 68. When using conspicuous words, they are actually "Beautiful girl", and the content is offensive. 69. The copywriting on the guide page does not match the content. 70. Because the application screenshot was rejected. Art Lazy gave 4 screenshots of Android. Although the content of the app is the same, the status bar at the top is from Android! : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : . . 81. The focus image of the information client releases the news that Pangu cracked iOS8 jailbreak. . 82. A toy penguin appears in the screenshot, and then refuses to say that we found that this marketing screenshot does not fully reflect your application's use. 83. Adult apps can be listed on the AppStore: the content must be "useful" 84.8. The pitfalls on the app store:1. The most recent time, I was rejected because the word "unconventional" appeared in the App interface. The reason is: indecent words make the user uncomfortable. I am really powerless to complain and cannot confront it in person. Well, I changed it to "playing around" and passed the review. 2. Last time, an imperfect feature was added to the App, so the word "beta" was added, and it was called back, saying that the app should not contain the function of the beta version and the word "beta" cannot appear. Okay, I wrote a code to judge that the beta will not be displayed during the review period, and then continue to display it after it is put on the shelves. However, every time I reviewed, no one cared about the beta words inside. It was probably because the reviewers were different and the focus was different. 3. iOS is called back if it is written incorrectly. In the introduction, if Apple's trademark or vocabulary is involved, no letter must be wrong, including the upper and lower case of each letter. 3. Guide users to give positive comments and almost get banned. This is the thing. I posted on Weibo that I would like to comment on the AppStore and I would like to give you a prize. I don’t know if I was reported or what happened. Apple sent an email saying that I would not allow the comments to be encouraged. Then there was a Canadian call to confirm the situation with me. After I told the situation, she said it would be fine if she didn’t use the example, it was still very nice. Chinese communication throughout the process. By the way, in all aspects such as Apple's review and listing emails, even though they use Chinese, they have a dedicated person to be responsible for it. 4. No test account is provided. This was a bit inexplicable at the time. In fact, my app didn't need to test the account, so I just filled in it and passed it. 5. No privacy statement. Because I am an input method, this must be provided. I later copied it from Sogou input method and placed it on my own server. 6. Third-party input methods must provide the function of digital input. I also think this is a bit inexplicable, but it must be added. I didn't look at the terms when I did it before. In the end, because of this, I missed the first wave of third-party input methods. After the official version of iOS8 was released, it was several weeks behind before it was launched. 7. Once, I accidentally appeared in the interface, but my App was 4+ rating, so I was called back. Later, I temporarily improved the rating before I passed. 8. I try my best to recall and remember these for the time being. They are all very low-level mistakes, so everyone can add them together. In addition, let me talk about another trick: when submitting an App, you must make good use of Expedite Review. The so-called Expedite Review is to apply for a quick review. Generally, after passing, you can pass the review on the day of submission. However, the premise is that you can describe a major bug in your online version of the App. You can deliberately leave some bugs, or there is a bug, or deliberately exaggerate your bug description. The chance of passing is quite high. I have passed it at least four or five times in the past six months. Submit address is Sign in with your Apple9. Recommendations for listing app store1. Text description cannot go beyond the boundaries. Apple first looks at the text description. If it fails, refuse directly; leaving Apple's promotion is another matter; 2. Apple adopts the minimum strategy by default: minimize hardware requirements; and the hardware parameters will be closed up to maximize during review, if it is not directly explained in the app. If you use wifi, gps and other devices, you must specify it in the parameters, so they will not care whether you are running on iPad wifi or iPad wifi+3G. If you do not specify it in your parameters, they will ignore everything; if you want to play audio for more than 10 minutes, please note that Apple has other requirements; 3. Pay special attention to various Crash, such as Crash caused by networking exceptions; when using GPS hardware normally, there will always be latitude and longitude data, but Apple does not have it when reviewing. My brother didn't make a judgment, so he crashed. The principle of rejection of 4 or 7 days is mostly 7 days. Although I had the luck of being lucky, I passed it in four hours, but don’t expect it. I once thought that Apple followed the principle of first-in and later-out, so I uploaded the app at 2 o’clock in the evening. Who knows it still doesn’t work; however, each account has two opportunities to apply for expedited processing; 5. Apple is very casual, and the degree of grasping it when different engineers review it; you will see many apps that are more trash than you do. How can I enter the app store? Nothing to say, character problems; 6. If you have applied for listing, you have found bugs or other problems. It is recommended to call it back by yourself and not wait for Apple to refuse; 7. If you want to avoid various rejections, the best way is to read Apple’s regulations!
