My first submission to the Apple App Store has been rejected due to "Spam".
According to the guidelines: " - Submitting an app with the same source code or assets as other apps already submitted to the App Store - Creating and submitting multiple similar apps using a repackaged app template - Purchasing an app template with problematic code from a third party - Submitting several similar apps across multiple accounts "
I built my app 100% from scratch - including all code, media assets, design, copywriting. Everything was built by me. There is only one dependency which is the AI model weights which runs locally on device... can't expect those to be unique too!
I have only one submission in this one and only account.
I assume they automatically flagged the app's AI model weights - but that should not be flagged!
How can I handle this so I can eventually get my app approved?
Because they didn't even reference to any other similar apps. Does it even matter? The store is flooded with clones of TODO apps, calorie trackers, etc. I believe my app is actually unique.
