How to quickly go through moderation in Appstore and Play Market?

First, let’s talk about the release in the App Store, since the problems most often arise with the placement of applications in this store. First you need to study the rules and restrictions set by Apple. And if your application does not violate these rules, then there will be no problems with the release. With minor deviations, you can try to negotiate with a team of moderators.

The main thing is not to abuse this arrangement and not to allow systematic violations of the rules. This, as well as instability of assemblies, can cause sanctions to be applied to you. And if the app updates also contain violations of the rules of the App Store, the release dates will increase all the time. In general, the company is friendly towards the developers and is often ready to meet them.

• The application should not have realistic scenes of violence, discrimination on any grounds, deception, pornography
• The application must be in working condition, with mandatory testing for bugs. The App Store does not accept applications that contain errors that can unexpectedly “crash” and work extremely slowly (in comparison with analogues). If an error is detected by the command, the application will be rejected.
• The application should be accompanied by a correct description of the functional and work in accordance with it. Hidden features are not allowed. If part of the functionality will be available only after purchase, you need to talk about this.

• Use of private APIs, calling internal iOS system functions, downloading new codes, and even more viruses, is excluded
• The application should be useful to the user and have full functionality
• No violation of the laws of those countries in which the application will be available for download
• The application must not infringe the copyright of the content that will be available to the user through it.
• Note that the Apple team always indicates the reason the application is refused placement.

The order of placement in the Google store has a significant difference from the App Store. It lies in the fact that moderation is carried out after the fact. Each developer can place his application, and its moderation will be carried out after some time. And up to this point, the product will be available for download by users.

This process at Google is automated as much as possible. After you download the .apk file and publish the application, it will appear in the store in just a few hours.

Automated and primary moderation. It is the robot that determines whether the application uses images that are already placed on the network. And if it detects them, then the application will be blocked.

In general, Google is more loyal to developers and the content of applications.

In the App Store, moderation of an application is usually carried out in a couple of days, but in some cases it may take a while (if the developer has not provided all the necessary information in full). Also, the moderation time increases (sometimes up to several weeks) for applications that have already been rejected several times and sent for revision.

When creating an application immediately for both platforms, you need to remember that it will appear on Google Play a few hours after placement, and in the App Store, at best, you will need to wait 1-2 days. And if it is important that the release occurs simultaneously, then first you need to download the iOS version of the application.
