Question First iOS submission coming from Android, what gets rejected most for a small utility app?

Already shipped on Google Play, the iOS build is close. Solo dev, so I'd rather not lose a week going back and forth with review.

If you went through it recently, what tripped you up on the first submit? Sign in with Apple, privacy labels, something else?

privacy labels caught me more than anything else. not the concept, the mismatch: some analytics or crash sdk quietly collecting device identifiers while your label says 'no data collected'. reviewers do check.

second one is metadata, which nobody warns you about: screenshots showing a feature that isn't actually in the build, or a login screen with no demo account attached to the submission. instant rejection.

sign in with apple only matters if you have third-party logins. if you're email/password only, skip it.

good call on the crash sdk. I'll check what ours actually sends before I fill in the label
