App Removed from App Store without Warning or Reason
Apple removed our app from the App Store today stating we need to renew our Apple Developer membership. I have written confirmation that Apple ran our card in late November and we haven't received another follow up stating it was still due or that our account / app was going to expire and/or was up for removal. There also seems to be an odd bug with the Apple Developer Program as I am an Account Holder on this app and a user on our other app (in the CA App Store). When I try navigating to the Membership Details screen it brings me to the CA app which another member of our team is Account Holder of. There's simply no way to get to the Membership Details screen for the app that's been removed and we only noticed this a few days ago. Again, Apple has given us zero warning that our app was up for removal nor that we still owe for our annual membership renewal fee. . .because we paid it back in November of 2025 and have the receipt from Apple confirming as much. Does anyone have any suggestions or perhaps a link I might be able to try to get me to the screen to attempt to pay the renewal fee (again) so we can get the app back in the App Store?

Issues with Apple Developer Account and Revoked Certificates
Hello, I am experiencing a critical issue with my Apple Developer Program account. I successfully enrolled months ago, and my subscription is active as per my account details. However, I am now unable to access my developer membership features, and when I sign into my account it redirects me to the enrollment page as if I had never enrolled. Key details of the issue: Active subscription: My Apple Developer Program membership is active and set to renew on 17 October 2025. The subscription page confirms this, and the payment was successfully processed. REVOKED CERTIFICATES: Certificates I created weeks ago have been revoked without any explanation or notification. No email notifications: I have not received any communication from Apple regarding issues with my account or certificates. Attempts to Resolve: Cleared cookies and cache. Tried logging in on multiple devices and browsers. Signed out of all devices and logged back in. Could someone please assist me in understanding why my account is behaving this way? Is there a specific team or channel I should contact to escalate this issue? Thank you in advance for your help!

Organization enrollment blocked at identity/address step (“Contact Us to Continue”) after prior decline and corrected notary document
Current issue (happening now) I get blocked immediately after entering my identity details and address. Apple Developer app (iPhone) I start the enrollment flow. After identity verification, I enter my address (Street Address, City/Town, State/Province, Postal/Zip, Phone). As soon as I tap Continue, I get: Contact Us to Continue There may be an issue with your account that needs to be resolved before you can continue. Please contact support. I cannot proceed past this point. Web enrollment (developer.apple.com) When I try on the web, I get: Your enrollment could not be completed. Your enrollment in the Apple Developer Program could not be completed at this time. This happens right after providing identity + address (before I can proceed further). Previous timeline (related background) ~3 months ago I incorporated my company in Türkiye (Ltd. Şti.) and tried to enroll as an organization. What happened First attempt on the web: enrollment was approved, but I couldn’t complete payment. Support told me to reset and try via the Developer app. Developer app enrollment then requested identity + “association with the enrolling entity” and company documents: Government-issued photo ID Employment/association verification Commercial registry extract (signed/stamped) Articles of association Tax office + tax number document Signatory circular I uploaded the requested documents. Apple replied that Turkish documents were unsupported and asked for “solicitor-certified English translations.” I uploaded English translations that were sworn-translator stamped. Why the translations were not notarized In Türkiye, due to the current economic situation, notarizing multiple translated corporate documents can cost hundreds of USD. Because of that, I initially provided sworn-translator certified (stamped) English translations rather than notarized translations. The translation office I worked with told me they regularly prepare company document translations for Apple Developer Program enrollments and that translator-certified translations are usually sufficient. My plan was to get everything notarized immediately if Apple explicitly requested notarization again or clarified that notarization was mandatory. About a week later, I received: Your enrollment request for your company has been declined. I followed up multiple times asking what exact requirement was not met (translation certification type, identity/association verification, etc.). Phone support said the decision was final and they could not disclose the reason. Additional detail discovered after the decline (document error fixed) After the decline, I reviewed all documents line-by-line and found a serious issue in my signatory circular: My company was incorporated on 27.08.2025. The signatory circular incorrectly stated that my authority started on 27.08.2023 (two years earlier). This was a notary/document preparation error. I immediately returned to the notary and had it corrected. They acknowledged the mistake, and I can obtain an official written statement confirming the correction if needed. However, Apple has not provided a channel to submit corrected documents, and support is not giving a path forward. What I’m asking the community Has anyone seen the “Contact Us to Continue” message triggered at the identity/address step and successfully fixed it? If yes, what specifically solved it? Is this typically an Apple Account eligibility/restriction flag, or can it be caused by address/region verification format issues? After an organization enrollment is declined, is there a known path to re-apply successfully (e.g., notarized translations vs translator-stamped, or having a different authorized representative apply as the Account Holder)? If documents were corrected after the decline (like the notary error above), is there any supported way to resubmit without starting from zero? Any concrete guidance would help. Thank you.

Apple Developer Enrollment Stuck — Paid Twice, Still Pending
Hello, I am writing this post because the Apple Developer Program enrollment process is clearly malfunctioning, and I have reached a point where this situation is unacceptable. First payment I initially purchased the Apple Developer Program on December 3rd, 2025 at 16:03 (Turkey time). The payment was fully completed, confirmed by my bank, and I received the official Apple Store receipt. • Order ID: W1557478965 • Amount: 1029 TRY • Status: Completed / Posted Despite this, my account continued to show: • “Purchase your membership” • Enrollment status: Pending • No access to App Store Connect After several days with no response from Apple Support and no activation, I assumed something had gone wrong on Apple’s side. Second payment Because I was completely blocked and received no reply from support or the forums, I made a second payment to rule out any payment failure. • Order ID: W1694587309 • Amount: 1029 TRY • Status: Completed / Posted Current situation At this point: • Two separate payments • Two unique Apple Store order IDs • Zero activation • Zero response from Apple Support • Enrollment still Pending • App Store Connect still inaccessible Support case details: • Apple Support Case ID: 102769533427 • Multiple follow-ups sent • No reply • No action taken This is no longer a delay — this is a system-level failure. I have paid twice for a single Developer Program membership and received nothing in return: no activation, no explanation, and no support. I am formally requesting manual intervention by Apple staff to: 1. Immediately activate my Apple Developer Program membership 2. Investigate and resolve the duplicate payment (refund or clarification) 3. Explain why a paid enrollment can remain blocked with no support response If this forum is monitored by Apple employees, this issue requires urgent escalation. This situation should not happen in a paid developer program. Thank you.

LiveKit SDK + VisionPro
I’m developing an app for visionOS and testing it on AVP (visionOS 26), on iOS 17 and 26 devices, and in simulators (visionOS 2.5). The idea of the app is random video calls. For video calls I use LiveKit SDK. At the moment, SDK the version is 2.11.0. Maybe this will help clarify where the problem is: A user presses the "Start" button, which calls matchingViewModel.startMatching(). After that, matchingViewModel.connectionState changes to .searching. Another user presses "Start" and the same thing happens. Then the API returns information for both users (myInfo, partners, roomId, myLiveKitToken). When a user receives the room information, matchingViewModel.connectionState changes to .connecting. At this point, the connection to LiveKit should happen. In the MatchingWrapperView file, the handleChangeRoomIdOrPartners method checks whether it should connect to LiveKit (when partner information and a room ID are available) or disconnect from the room (when the partner ends the call). The connectRoom method handles connecting to the LiveKit room, enables the camera, and runs emitHasConnectedToLiveKit() (matchingViewModel.connectionState changes to .connected, and information is sent to the other partner that the user has joined LiveKit). When testing visionOS device + visionOS device or iPhone or visionOS simulator, most of the time the video from the iPhone is not shown on the visionOS device. Less often, the video from the visionOS device is not shown on the iPhone or in the simulator. When testing iPhone + iPhone + visionOS simulator, everything usually works fine. Occasionally the video doesn’t appear, but this happens much less often. Maybe you know why this issue occurs much more frequently on visionOS? Here is all the code for the core functionality. If you need any additional code, please let me know. RoomModel.swift

stuck in apple business connect
We want to add a Book button to our customer Apple Maps annotation and need a business account for this. We previously purchased the developer account using a Google email. Now, Apple Business Connect requires moving it to an email under our company domain. We've tried several times, submitted all required data (domain verified, with verification evidence), but we've been stuck on this step for about 8 months. Does anyone know how to reach a support agent to discuss and resolve this issue? Our company is in Greece.

how long does it take to get apple developer account approved?
I'm at my wit's end with Apple's ridiculous timeframes! They promise 2 days but then completely ghost you for weeks. Here I am, literally trying to give them my money and get things moving, but it's like hitting a brick wall over and over. I've tried everything - even set up a whole separate account - and what do I get? Just more 'pending' status. No updates, no explanations, just endless waiting. How is it possible for a trillion-dollar company to make something as simple as accepting payment so infuriatingly difficult?

Stuck in Notarization Queue for 6 days
Hi all, I hope you are doing well. Just wanted to reach out to see if anyone could help me with my macOS app which has been stuck in the notarization queue for 6 days so far. I had two other apps that were approved pretty much instantly but this one is the biggest and most complex by far. createdDate: 2026-01-06T17:42:21.396Z id: bc5d110c-42e8-4654-a14f-95be9249ddd4 name: S1_notarize.zip status: In Progress createdDate: 2026-01-06T23:51:30.914Z id: 4587bced-fefc-4d79-bc07-cdb1655b2304 name: S1_notarize.zip status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2026-01-06T20:38:44.636Z id: 4df21b51-61f6-42f1-89cd-226c8fd35100 name: S1_notarize.zip status: In Progress These three are essentially the same with small bug fixes. I appreciate your help. Sincerely, John
