I keep running into errors when I submit my app and get rejections I wanted to know if there is someone else who recently submitted their app to AppStore so i could know if it’s my app that’s causing an issue or everyone’s app thanks 🙂

I submitted an app around a month to two months ago. Quite a large app using Firebase and Airtable. No issues at all. I just had some trouble getting screenshots but that was easily solved.

What does your app do? Apple is quite particular about having working apps on their app store. So design wise, with thunkable X you will have a nice design, but the internals of the app could be letting you down. Are there a lot of complex procedures running at once, potentially causing a crash or the app to work incorrectly?

Are you using the **webviewer** component by any chance? If so, that could be the reason.

Hi @jxbclothes69gc7

Can you share some more details on your apps content/blocks or share a copy of your project? On which iPhone and iOS version did you try it yourself? If you want you can also generate a download link and share it with me via PM and I will check if there is any issue running the app on my iOS devices running iOS 13.2 and 13.1

Best, Chris

@Deluxe It is that true? Web Viewer can’t be used in IOS?

Yes. But it’s only if you use **just a webviewer.**

The thing is that Apple “hates” webviews as those imply that the app you are building is basically an icon for a webpage, even if it is not. In my case, removing the webview elements and resubmitting helped but that does not mean that Apple rejects ALL apps that have webviews. Just sharing my experience.

Btw, since your app is basically webviews, are you really sure you should be building an app?

Hi @Leito, make sure you familiarise yourself with Apple’s guidelines if you’re hoping to publish in their App Store
