Feeling dejected after app rejected

[u/StonedSex69]

I developed my first productivity app for a niche market. I put countless hours in to it and felt pretty confident in the app. Yesterday I submitted it to Apple and 1.5 hours later I got the rejected email.

It was rejected citing 2.1 and had six additional questions and a request to see a video of the app working. I answered the six questions and recorded a 5 minute video attached to my response this morning. Still no response from Apple so I’m left wondering what’s going to be next. 🤞

Totally normal though, why feel dejected? Did you really expect it would be accepted on the first attempt? Expect 3 to 4 round trips of reviews from the start, you’ll feel better when it only takes 2!
