General Publication Hints

Rejection because of crash (simulator / emulator)

It may happen that your app is rejected during the publication review. The usual root cause is that Google or Apple reviewers are trying to test the app on a simulator or emulator. As the release SDK actively prevents this, a crash in this case is intended behaviour.

We recommend explicitly stating that the security features of the app prevent it from being run in an emulator or simulator and the app crash in this scenario is deliberate and intended as part of the test information provided to the Apple or Google testers.

In case the app is rejected you have a chance to appeal the rejection and mention the intended behaviour again in the appeal note.
