Weird, I thought I got a message that it went through. For that app that I republished, there was a review pending, I re-submitted the binary after changing the metadata, to see if that would work.

So I just republished a different app [https://x.thunkable.com/projects/5f729d22bc316e82d0788fb3/project/properties/designer](https://x.thunkable.com/projects/5f729d22bc316e82d0788fb3/project/properties/designer) that was also rejected earlier today.

Hi there,

Just submitted my app from Thunkable to App Store and received the message that it was sent successfully. It’ll take something like 30 more minutes for Apple to fully process the app, but basically I’m also good to go when you say so.

Out of curiosity by the way, if I can ask, what is it that you’re doing? Would be nice to understand a little more about the root causes of this problem that’s been plaguing us.

No way! no way! I followed yours steps, but no way. Just 4th reject from Apple with same answer. I’m thinking to change tool for publish. I’m leave thunkable. I’m sorry. My time was money. My client was ending contract. I’m gone.

I tell you a little comic and hilarius story:  
Today aftwer last reject I wrote to appstore: _Sorry. This app was created with thunkable web platform tool. We haven’t control on AppTrackingTransparency reference in file. Many thunkable users have same problem, thunkable staff know the problem: we don’t use AppTrackingTransparency nowhere but you find it in app. We hope thunkable staff remove this bug as soon as possible. Many time to many users Apple approve, other time not. This another strange thing. Thanks for your patience. Bye_.  
So appstore team answer me this (read with attention):  
_Hello,_  
_Thank you for your message._  
_Regarding our guideline 2.5.1, if you are not tracking users it would be appropriate to remove the App Tracking Transparency framework from your binary, as well as the related keys in your app’s info.plist and from localized string files._  
_Please note that if this is a bug fix submission and you’d like to have the app approved at this time, you can reply to this message in Resolution Center to let us know. You do not need to resubmit your app for us to proceed._  
_Alternatively, if you’d like to resolve these issues now, please feel free to resubmit. Let us know if you have any questions about the issues we found in our review._  
_You may [appeal your app rejection](https://developer.apple.com/contact/app-store/?topic=appeal) if you believe this decision was made incorrectly. We also invite you to [provide feedback on our review guidelines](https://developer.apple.com/contact/app-store/?topic=guideline)._  
_Best regards,_  
_App Store Review_  
**Question is: my english is so bad?** 🙄  
Tomorrow thunkable staff do a debug session meet. I hope for a solution…
