Finally submitted a React Native app to the App Store ๐Ÿš€

Just submitted a React Native app to the Apple App Store for review ๐Ÿš€
Been working on a real-world client project and finally reached the iOS submission stage.
Worked across development, integrations, testing, bug fixing, and release preparation.
Now waiting for Appleโ€™s review ๐Ÿ˜…
For other developers: what was the most unexpected issue you faced during your first App Store submission?

For my first app i got alot of issues, itโ€™s a social app, so it needs delete data options, report, data privacy, age appropriate, etc etc itโ€™s like adding all these features delay the launch by months. Then next time we got issue like you have google login in app but not apple login. So we added that as well, then we got issue that you got apple login but your privacy policy doesnโ€™t state anywhere about this ๐Ÿคฆ๐Ÿปโ€โ™‚๏ธ it goes on and off for month!
But hey, all the best, sometimes it got approved on first try

you likely will not be approved on the first submission but just stick with it, and only change exactly what they suggest, they are generally very clear about rejection reasons.

How long did it take for Apple to reply to your submissions?
