Welp, Short Circuit was rejected, and for no reason. Guess I’m going to spend my morning resubmitting the app and waiting to see if Apple accepts it this time.

Rejected again… for reasons that were already corrected, and another that is clearly not an issue for other apps. 😤

What we’ll probably end up doing is submitting a version of Short Circuit missing one feature and then appeal to Apple, but it’s pretty frustrating that they don’t seem to understand the domain of LLMs enough to understand why what we’re trying to do is helpful to users.

What special hell is this? Short Circuit has finally been approved after six rejections, but the in app purchases are still waiting for review. I mean, come on.

At least I'm using this time effectively rather than twiddling my thumbs. I just added markdown support with the ability to copy code snippets, you’ll be able to use it WHENEVER APPLE APPROVES THIS VERSION.

Got a phone call from App Review and it was… very polite and productive. The Apple employee agreed that it was "a little silly" to use his words that Apple kept rejecting us over perfectly valid wording choices, and they're going to allow us to bring resubmit the Lifetime Unlock feature that was being rejected. We even brainstormed the best ways to accomplish this, and he gave me his phone number that in case we get rejected again. Overall A+ experience after a very, very, very frustrating week.
