iOS Lack of basic iOS knowledge from Apple reviewer after rejection...

[maka]

I’m trying to get an app with a widget approved and I’m seeing a complete lack of understanding of how a widget works and how it is edited by the reviewer. I finally had to explain you have to long press the widget in order to customize it with the chosen data...

What the...?

Anyone experiencing anything similar? Maybe they hired a bunch of inexperienced people to help with the overflow of updates for iOS14...

Well... it seems the explanation did it. The app was approved after that 😂

I've have had to make a Federal case over and over with the Mac OS reviewers about the green button that's in the top right corner of a window. It's NOT a full-screen button. An application may or may not support full-screen windows. In a non-full-screen application this button toggles the size of a window between its full size and a size that was set by the user dragging the lower right corner of the window to a user-selected size. Incompetence by app reviewers at Apple is a big problem. There have been a bunch of threads about it on the developer talk site.

That's interesting. Is there any public knowledge as to who does the app store reviews and where they are based?
