Apple App Store Rejections - Guideline 4.3(a) - Design - Spam

[arron-tamar]

Hi All,

Just reaching out to you to see if anyone has recently come across issues regarding submission of a customized linphone iPhone app to the Apple App Store.

We have modified functionality to bring it inline with our product and colour scheme.

However, when submitting the app to Apple for review, we have received the following rejection from them:

"Regarding Guideline 4.3(a) - Design - Spam, your app shares a similar binary, metadata, and/or concept as apps submitted to the App Store by other developers, with only minor differences."

This is not an issue/rejection we have come across before (we have submitted a Linphone iPhone app before with adjustments).

Has anyone else come across this or have a workaround for it?

Any help/information would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Arron
