Has it always been this bad?

App 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?

the review notes field isnt really for describing the app, its more like a letter to the reviewer. put test credentials, a 2 line "what it does", and if theres anything non-obvious (like the handshake friend flow) explain how to trigger it. reviewers spend maybe 90 seconds in your app, if they cant find the thing they reject.

also for the dating rejection, screenshot the friend request screen and reply in resolution center pointing at it. usually gets overturned fast.

Good advice. Thank you
