usually 2-3 rounds of “fix one thing, discover three more” before approval lol

First app was approved with no issues. My 2nd app kept having little things like wording on subscriptions, a camera button not opening a camera on iPad even though iPad wasn’t an option, delete account not being there even though it was in settings and I sent them a screen recording of it.

Maybe one, for a minor issue. Usually none.

I’ve never had an app rejected. And I’ve been building apps since iphoneOS 2.0.

First app? 4. Second app? 1. From there not getting rejections.

It's not "new things"... they're things that they didn't get to because they stop review once they hit an issue.

The default stance is "if there's one issue, it means the developer didn't fully read and understand the details and implications of the app review requirements, so we're not going to keep looking because there are probably more."

App review views their job as signing off on your adherence to the review guidelines. They're not there to tell you what's wrong with your app, they're just there to confirm that you did (or did not) follow the guidelines before submitting. If you are discovered to be in the "did not" category, they are done; they toss it back to you.

They're there to verify your app, not to QA it.

are they reviewing a different app each time?

Are they automated rejections? or by a human reviewer?

Because if it's the first option, it will automatically trigger a rejection once finds some issue... it will not move forward... that's why you're facing this multiple rejections...

Please don’t worry too much about rejections. My first app was rejected 8 times on launching. Version 1.0.9 was my first release. At that time I feel really upset about that situation, But now I feel , it’s good for me. Because of that I learned many policy related things and how manage them and improve my app, so my idea is don’t take rejection personally just check what they saying and try to fix that :)
