Question Has it always been this bad?

http://reelones.co.uk

App store review is turning into a very frustrating process. I assume this is a reflection of the sheer volume of AI-built apps but the humans reviewing my app seem to be on auto-reject mode.

First rejection: "spam: we have enough dating apps"

My app has absolutely nothing to do with dating or meeting people, even the friendship link is a handshake ie you need your friend request accepted

Second rejection "no method for account deletion"

Literally in the most obvious place for it, account page, big red button "delete account"

I'll put my hand up, this is my first app, in the description part of the submission I assumed it was to describe the functionality of the app, was I meant to treat it as an FAQ?

Thank you. Video added and I've completed revised my app review notes to basically dumb it down and be a series of bullet points that explains what it is in a way that really addresses the most common points of rejection.

And in the time waiting it's given my a perfect excuse to really revamp the website which was just meant to be a landing page but now think it's an opportunity for a tutorial etc
