An anecdote from today about Apple's App Review Team

4 pointsby BigBalli11 months ago
I submitted an app update with new screenshots to showcase the added functionality. I took these screenshots on both an iPhone and an iPad, then used a service to generate the required variants for all device sizes needed by the App Store. My app was rejected because the generated screenshots for the iPhone&#x27;s 5.5&quot; models (iPhone 6S+, iPhone 7+, iPhone 8+... all dating pre 2017) did not match the app&#x27;s functionality. I was confused and assumed it was a mistake on their part. However, I eventually realized the issue: the screenshot generator had cropped the larger screenshots to fit the smaller device screens, which was fine, but the tab bar at the bottom didn&#x27;t display correctly when the device bezel was added.<p>TBH I was quite annoyed I had go and fix them manually but I find the attention to detail (of some of them) mind-blowing.
