What that error or status actually means

Developer Rejected means someone on your team pulled the version out of review. Apple did not reject anything. How to withdraw on purpose, and how to resubmit.

In Review means a reviewer has your build open. What happens during it, what you can and can't change, and what the possible outcomes are.

Invalid Binary is a processing failure, not a rejection. There is no Resolution Center message. Six places to look for the reason, in the order that finds it fastest.

Screenshots and metadata attach to a version, and only some version states accept writes. Which states are editable, why pushes 409, and how to create an editable version.

Pending Developer Release means Apple approved your version and it will not go live until you release it. How to release, and how to avoid the state entirely.

Google Play edits are invalidated the moment anything else touches the app, including someone opening Play Console. Why it happens mid-upload and how to avoid it.

Waiting for Review means your submission is queued and untouched. What moves it along, what doesn't, and what you can still change while you wait.

Every App Store version status, Waiting for Review, In Review, Metadata Rejected, Pending Developer Release, what each means and what you can still edit.

Yes, to the App Review Board, through Apple's contact form. When an appeal is worth filing, when it wastes a week, what to write, and what Apple never tells you.

Waiting for Review: some fields are editable. In Review: nothing is. Screenshots freeze the moment you submit. What Apple documents, and what actually cancels a review.

Apple has never published how the review queue is ordered. What Apple does document about replying and resubmitting, what it doesn't, and how to plan around the gap.

Google Cloud IAM roles grant nothing in Play Console. Why the Play Developer API returns 401 and 403, which permissions you actually need, and per-track gotchas.

What completed, inProgress, draft and halted actually mean on a Play track, how the internal to production ladder works, and how to halt a staged rollout.

Google publishes no average review time. It publishes one figure: up to seven days or longer in exceptional cases. What that covers, and why new accounts wait longer.

Apple's expedited review form, the two circumstances Apple names, what a request that gets granted looks like, and what abusing it costs you.

Two routes: remove the version from review, or cancel the whole submission. Both land in Developer Rejected. The exact steps, the five states it works in, and when to wait instead.

What ITMS errors are, where Transporter and altool produce them, how to read one, and a reference table of the common codes with cause and fix.

ITMS-90338 flags symbol and selector names that match Apple's private API list. Why it fires on code you never wrote, how to find the real source, and what fixes it.

Which NSxxxUsageDescription key Apple wants, why you get this for permissions you never use, where the key must live, and how to find the SDK responsible.
