๐Ÿ˜ž Rejection

Understandably, Apple has rejected this app as it contains information regarding the COVID-19 pandemic.

Only recognised institutions are allowed to create apps relating to the pandemic to help curb misinformation.

We found in our review that your app provides services or requires sensitive user information related to the COVID-19 pandemic. Since the COVID-19 pandemic is a public health crisis, services and information related to it are considered to be part of the healthcare industry. In addition, the seller and company names associated with your app are not from a recognized institution, such as a governmental entity, hospital, insurance company, non-governmental organization, or university.
