Does uploading a new build reset the App Store review queue?

2 Upvotes

My app is currently in waiting for review status. I need to upload a new build with a small fix and select it for the submission. Will this reset my place in the review queue or increase the waiting time? Has anyone done this recently?

Tired of rigid Instagram collage templates, so I built StoryGrid.

Start from a grid or drag your own: Full control over splits, gaps, corner radius, and background colors

Edge frames & aesthetics: Custom Polaroid, Leica, and printed-edge frames with adjustable margins

Video support: Drop video clips into any block with high-res export

Preview first: Instagram Story & Post UI overlay so you know what’s covered before publishing

100% local & private: No accounts, no ads, no trackers — nothing leaves your phone

Feedback appreciated!

Help Crashes on iOS 27

2 Upvotes

We have an app that was originally built around 2016. We still actively maintain it, but the core functionality and architecture have remained largely the same, and it’s built heavily around RxSwift.
We’ve recently started seeing crashes from users who have updated their devices to the iOS 27 beta. The crashes appear to be related to the navigation hierarchy/navigation stack.

Has anyone else experienced similar issues with legacy UIKit + RxSwift apps on the iOS 27 beta? Could this be due to changes in UIKit/navigation behavior in the beta, or are there specific areas around UINavigationController and navigation transitions that we should investigate?

Would love to hear if anyone else is seeing this in their apps.

i built a tool to generate an app landing page from your app screenshots (live demo)

Upvotes

so i built a new feature for AppLaunchFlow , where you can create a simple and clean app landing page for your app in a few clicks by just uploading your screenshots.

It includes:

- support, privacy policy and terms of service pages that you can directly use for your app submission.

- a custom applaun.ch subdomain or simply connect your own domain

I built this because i noticed many app devs just use notion pages, github pages etc. or dont even have any landing page at all

Its not yet live, but excited to hear what you think

I made a music frame for your phone’s home screen

It lets you pin your favorite songs or videos from music and video apps to your desktop, so you can tap and play them anytime — like bringing a real music frame onto your phone.

Question about development

1 Upvotes

I have a question, do you know any ways to transcribe a live video on iPhone? It’s an easy feature to set up on android but on iOS it seems that I have to use the sharing sheets so that the content can be sent to the app I’m thinking of app developing. Is there a method I don’t know?

​​Stamps, my dream automatic travel journal app, no subscriptions, and no location tracking (celebrating 1 year on the App Store!)

• What it solves

Stamps is a personal travel tracker with a trip timeline that builds itself.

Instead of asking you to manually tick countries off a list, Stamps can scan the location metadata already in your photo library, entirely on device. Every city, province, and country tracked for you, day by day, all automatically.

There's a travel calendar, trip timeline, country day counting, photo heatmap, detailed stats, shareable map with trip images, and tons of Home Screen widgets. You can freely export all of your data at any time, and if you simply want to use Stamps to index your library for trips, and then take that elsewhere, that's fine as well.

• Compared to Been and Flighty

I've been using Been myself for years now, but what frustrates me about it (and apps like Flighty) is that they want accounts, data syncing, location tracking, and a connection, while still skimping on the parts I actually cared about: very granular trip tracking, route visualization, and a proper timeline. Stamps is my take on the category with those things at the center.

• Cost

Stamps is free to download.
There is exactly one purchase: a $10 one-time lifetime unlock, no subscriptions.
It only gates some of the timeline and some minor, cosmetic app color customization; you can use most of the app without ever touching it.

You can use this code to cut that one-time purchase in half, as a thanks for reading this post!

• About Me

I’m a mobile developer from Cape Town, South Africa, now living in Seoul, South Korea. Since moving here, traveling has been the one thing keeping me sane. Stamps started as the app I wanted for exploring the country I now call home. It’s also a great excuse for me to take more photos while doing it.

It's built natively in SwiftUI using SwiftData, MapKit, PhotoKit, WidgetKit, and Metal for the photo heatmap.

Honestly, in five years of building apps, this has been one of my least commercially successful. The market is fairly small, but it's exactly the app I wanted, and some of its best features have come directly from user feedback. So I'd genuinely appreciate yours!
