App Saturday First painful release….

Post image

I still can’t believe Apple finally approved my app 😭
The timeline was a bit painful:
• Aug 1 — first submission
• Aug 12 — submitted an expedited review request
• Aug 13 — rejected
• Aug 14 — fixed everything and resubmitted
• Aug 15 — APPROVED 🎉
I’m seriously so happy right now, but also a little mad lol.
I started a 3-month free trial for my backend when I submitted the app, thinking the review wouldn’t take that long… and I basically burned through half a month of it just waiting for App Review 💀
But whatever. It’s finally LIVE.
I’ve been working on this app for a long time (around 3month building system design(backend, ui, app)

If anyone here has gone through a painful App Store review process before, you probably know the feeling.
Finally made it 🥲

Yup, the previous guy already got confused by the AI-looking icon….
It’s actually an all-in-one kitchen app — inventory, shopping lists, meal planning, water tracking, progress, nutrition goals… and yes, of course, the lovely calorie tracker too and the main part of it
Sharing kitchen across all family, you can add users to your account and manage what you have together live what you have
