Review

Check review status

ascelerate apps review status <bundle-id>
ascelerate apps review status <bundle-id> --version 2.1.0

Submit for review

ascelerate apps review submit <bundle-id>
ascelerate apps review submit <bundle-id> --version 2.1.0

When submitting, the command automatically detects IAPs and subscriptions with pending changes and offers to submit them alongside the app version.

Resolve rejected items

After fixing issues and replying in Resolution Center:

ascelerate apps review resolve-issues <bundle-id>

Cancel submission

ascelerate apps review cancel-submission <bundle-id>

Preflight checks

Before submitting for review, run preflight to verify that all required fields are filled in across every locale:

# Check the latest editable version
ascelerate apps review preflight <bundle-id>

# Check a specific version
ascelerate apps review preflight <bundle-id> --version 2.1.0

The command checks version state, build attachment, and then goes through each locale to verify localization fields (description, what's new, keywords), app info fields (name, subtitle, privacy policy URL), and screenshots:
