Ahh - I misread (thought you were talking about the same version). Maybe the we're getting back to "normal" approval times. EDIT: Spoke too soon: 1 week "Waiting for Review" + 3 hours "In Review". That's around the same wait time as I saw in December, but way quicker review time
gone are the good days. Waiting in Review since 5 days... I think there was a holiday yesterday and a weekend, ... my last game and lite version was approved in 2 days at the start of Jannuary...
Sick of Santa 1.0.2 took 2 days... was approved on the 8th of this month. I'm very happy with the turnover time.
Hmmm, interesting to hear. Review has been happening much more quickly recently. I submitted Angel Thy Guardian late Sunday night and heard back from Apple that the app was in review Monday afternoon.
I've noticed similar... Apple seem to be doing an exceptionally good job in minimizing the time the approvals process is taking !
Puzzle Dice Lite http://itunes.apple.com/ca/app/puzzle-dice-lite/id351190513?mt=8 in and out service in 12 hours. Impressive! Reminds me of dry cleaning! Drop it off in the evening and pick it up during the day.
Here are my times from last week. Sheeple Ready for Sale: January 21, 2010 13:51 In Review: January 21, 2010 10:54 Waiting For Review: January 17, 2010 14:17 Sheeple Lite Ready for Sale: January 22, 2010 17:57 In Review: January 21, 2010 08:28 Waiting For Review: January 20, 2010 19:33
Our Flight Deck update has been Waiting for Review for 5 days now. I was expecting better after reading this thread!
I submitted a new app last Friday @ 4pm, it went from Waiting for Review to In Review @ 445pm that same day. It just turned Ready for Sale this morning @ 9am.
That's some pretty good reviewing speed right there! I wonder if it is just that apps get reviewed faster than games.
i request for an expedited review of my app and they replied saying OK.. but when i checked iTC, it still shows 'Waiting for Review'.. they are going back into the slumber mode..
Ironically our game Project 72 that took us 72 hours to develop, took more than 336 hours for Apple to approve. It just got approved today
I uploaded my game on January 25 2010, two days ago. It has been in review since 7:30 (UK time). Does Apple play the games to their limits? Or is it a code check of some kind? My game is fairly small. Would that speed up the review process? Im just interested in what factors effect it. Thanks.
