My App Rejected 4.3 Design: Spam

Hello. Appstore is rejecting my app according to article 4.3. But the app is not a copy, what should I do in this case?

It is useful to specify the details; I had previously registered with my personal account and the Appstore stated that unfortunately VPN applications are not accepted with a personal account. Then they told me to register with a company account and make this application from the company account. (When I sent the application for review on my personal account, there were only a few incorrect items and the most important reason why it was not accepted was that it was a personal account).

Now we send the application for review with our company account, but as soon as it is put into in review mode, it is quickly rejected due to 4.3 spam.

The app is not a copy but completely custom created. I don't know how to find a solution. Can you please help with the issue?

Thank you for your post. If you disagree with the outcome of the review, we recommend submitting an appeal to the App Review Board. When filing your appeal, make sure to:

  • Provide specific reasons why you believe your app complies with the App Review Guidelines.
  • Submit only one appeal per rejection.
  • Respond to any requests for additional information before submitting an appeal.

Once you have submitted the appeal we can escalate it to the App Review Board for review. The App Review Board will contact you directly as soon as they've completed their investigation.
