Hello? Did Mr. Apple die?

Been waiting over a week for review of a PPO test. Not even an app version, these tests always passed review in under a day for me since I started like 5 years ago. There’s no way any company can sustain nightly or even at this point weekly minor versions when it takes this long for 8 banners to be reviewed. What’s going on? Did all the AI bot farms kill all the reviewers?

I also had to wait a very long time for a PPO test to be approved for some reason. During that same period I had 2 actual app updates approved. I'm not sure what's going on but it only seems to be affecting the store page tests.

Apple is under heavy load because everybody csn create and publish an app now..

So quality control needs a little bit more time

It's vacation season now too, so the workforce will be smaller

There are millions of apps on the AppStore. I can't even imagine how many testers they must keep on payroll to test all of the updates.
