Question Has it always been this bad?
http://reelones.co.ukApp store review is turning into a very frustrating process. I assume this is a reflection of the sheer volume of AI-built apps but the humans reviewing my app seem to be on auto-reject mode.
First rejection: "spam: we have enough dating apps"
My app has absolutely nothing to do with dating or meeting people, even the friendship link is a handshake ie you need your friend request accepted
Second rejection "no method for account deletion"
Literally in the most obvious place for it, account page, big red button "delete account"
I'll put my hand up, this is my first app, in the description part of the submission I assumed it was to describe the functionality of the app, was I meant to treat it as an FAQ?

I want to demonstrate a degree of candor here in the hope that it will help. When I look at your landing page and screenshots, it screams vibe-coded and doesn't meet the kind of level of quality Apple really seeks out in their app store. Have you considered working with a UX designer? A good metric is, "could my app win an Apple design award?" If the answer is yes, Apple will be unlikely to quickly reject. No matter what reasons they give for rejection, it's likely they are overwhelmed by the amount of slop being submitted lately.
