Hello everyone,

I’m looking for some guidance regarding the App Store review process.

We submitted our app Desteno (iOS version 1.0.1) for review for the fifth time on Tuesday, and as of Saturday, it has been more than four days. The app is still not live on the App Store, and we haven’t received any update, rejection, or message from the App Review team.

We understand that review times can vary, but this delay after multiple submissions is a bit unclear for us. There are no pending messages or requests visible in App Store Connect.

Has anyone else experienced a similar delay recently? Is there any recommended next step—such as contacting App Review through Resolution Center or waiting longer?

Any insights or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance.

Was there (is there) a known bottleneck in the process? My submission on Friday night is still sitting in "Waiting for Review" status.

Granted, it's only been about 60 hours, but my experience has been that the app is typically "checked out" and "In Review" by now.

I'm only asking because I came across this recent post and I don't want to sit around and wait a few days only discover there is an issue that wasn't fully resolved and I should have reported it.

If everything is fine and there is just a backlog, I get it.

Thank you
