    I wonder if priority is being given to apps that make use of 3.0 features. Of course, this would only make sense if the release of 3.0 was imminent.

    I just submitted an update to Durak (I'll count this as Saturday)

    I will let everyone know when the update is actually available so we can gauge how long it takes

    Apple rejects apps built for 3.0, and will presumably continue to do so until 3.0 is out.

    Yes, they won't even let you hit continue in the uploading process if you upload for 3.0 devices.


    Also, a small Stick Escape update has been in review for 2 weeks, getting anxious!

    Im am still waiting for the ports of call Lite update to 1.3,

    I assume the reviewers are overloaded by updates due to the expected 3.0 coming out and all need to be compatible (though 3.0 apps are not accepted yet they need to be compatible), or will be rejected. That requires testing on 2.2.1 and 3.0 phones !
     
  10. "The Bell" was released today and I only waited 6 days. Having said that, my app is extremely basic, so maybe not many things needed checking in the review process.

    I wonder if the country you're developing in can make a difference? My review location was Australia.. so maybe there's a shorter queue of apps here compared to Europe and US?

    before it only takes around 7 days if no problems found, so here from germany its about the same usually,

    but the lite free version seems to take longer than the full versions, maybe they sort them out. The last lite took also longer than 7 days (clapboard lite) .

    Anomaly Lite was approved after 4 days... Anomaly Update still waiting 7 days now....

    I was kind of hoping for the other way around but... oh well!

    maybe the lites take longer now, the strange thing is thepoc lite is about the same as the aproved full version (was already 3.0 proved).
