I have a connected application that retrieves Json (3 or 4 times in a session and 670 bytes on average) from a server based on application data. Apple refused my application by providing me with screenshots with very precise states and crash logs .. that I could only reproduce after 2 hours of testing by asking XCODE to place the iPhone in very specific conditions: 100% of packets lost on the network, which is a very rare case you will agree.

Does Apple's app validation team use this network mode to test applications? It would be usefull for developer to know. Screenshot 2025-03-08 at 16.14.31.png

Apple reviews apps in what are best described as “real world corporate environments”.

While Apple may not be testing your app with this tool, you should, as it can represent a real-world customer experience—just as App Review did.

I very much doubt it.

I guess there is some other networking problem.
