记录AppStore审核被拒绝经历

背景：

2017年10月17号提交审核，18号审核中，24号被拒绝。

以往提交审核，通常都会在48小时内得到结果，这次审核在审核中状态，停留了6天。（在此期间通过iTunesConnect资源和帮助向Apple发送了2次反馈，并询问了审核进度），最终得到了下面的邮件。👇

2. 3 Performance: Accurate Metadata
2. 5 Performance: Software Requirements
Guideline 2.3.1 - Performance


We discovered that your app contains hidden features. 

The next submission of this app may require a longer review time.

Next Steps

- Review the Performance section of the App Store Review Guidelines.
- Ensure your app is compliant with all sections of the App Store Review Guidelines and the Terms & Conditions of the Apple Developer Program. 
- Once your app is fully compliant, resubmit your app for review.

Submitting apps designed to mislead or harm customers or evade the review process may result in the termination of your Apple Developer Program account. Review the Terms & Conditions of the Apple Developer Program to learn more about our policies regarding termination.

If you believe your app is compliant with the App Store Review Guidelines, you may submit an appeal. Alternatively, you may provide additional details about your app by replying directly to this message.

Guideline 2.5.1 - Performance - Software Requirements

//////////--------------------重要描述--------------------//////////
Additionally, your app uses or references the following non-public APIs:
IOServiceMatching, IOServiceGetMatchingService, IORegistryEntryCreateCFProperties, IOObjectRelease
//////////--------------------重要描述--------------------//////////
  
The use of non-public APIs is not permitted on the App Store because it can lead to a poor user experience should these APIs change. 

Continuing to use or conceal non-public APIs in future submissions of this app may result in the termination of your Apple Developer account, as well as removal of all associated apps from the App Store.

Next Steps

If you are using third-party libraries, please update to the most recent version of those libraries. If you do not have access to the libraries' source, you may be able to search the compiled binary using the "strings" or "otool" command line tools. The "strings" tool can output a list of the methods that the library calls and "otool -ov" will output the Objective-C class structures and their defined methods. These tools can help you narrow down where the problematic code resides. You could also use the "nm" tool to verify if any third-party libraries are calling these APIs.

Resources

For information on the "nm" tool, please review the "nm tool" Xcode manual page.

If there are no alternatives for providing the functionality your app requires, you can file an enhancement request.

Continuing to use or conceal non-public APIs in future submissions of this app may result in the termination of your Apple Developer account, as well as removal of all associated apps from the App Store.

Next Steps

To resolve this issue, please revise your app to provide the associated functionality using public APIs or remove the functionality using the "prefs:root" or "App-Prefs:root" URL scheme.

If there are no alternatives for providing the functionality your app requires, you can file an enhancement request.

一、排查问题

首先，来看一下上面的Apple发送的审核被拒原因邮件，其中提到了两个重要的点：

这次Apple审核，相对以往来说更为严格，以下提到的两个问题，在以往的版本迭代中，没有被拒绝过。

问题 ①：

Additionally, your app uses or references the following non-public APIs:
IOServiceMatching, IOServiceGetMatchingService, IORegistryEntryCreateCFProperties, IOObjectRelease

👉您的应用程序使用或引用以下非公开API：
IOServiceMatching, IOServiceGetMatchingService, IORegistryEntryCreateCFProperties, IOObjectRelease

问题 ②：

Your app also uses the "prefs:root=" non-public URL scheme, which is a private entity. The use of non-public APIs is not permitted on the App Store because it can lead to a poor user experience should these APIs change.

👉您的应用程序还使用 prefs:root= 非公开URL方案，这是一个私有实体。
在App Store中不允许使用非公开API，因为如果这些API发生变化，可能会导致用户体验不佳。

二、解决问题 ①

1. 首先打开终端，cd到项目的当前目录中：

cd (drag and drop your project folder here) Your_Project_Path

2. 分别输入以下命令行，来找到使用了（私有API）的SDK或者.a的静态库：

find . | grep -v .svn | grep "\.a" | grep -v "\.app" | xargs grep （私有API）

grep -lr "（私有API）" * | grep -v .svn | grep -v .md

3. 根据终端的提示找到对应的地方，将SDK替换成官方最新的SDK，然后再用第2步再确认一遍，确认无误后提交代码。

若SDK中依旧包含私有API，根据实际情况做相应的处理。

解决方案：⛳️
目前ATSDK的使用场景，用于帮助开发人员快速查找分析性能，UI等方面问题，暂时在发布环境中弃用ATSDK，其中包含的测试入口，FLEX调试工具，调整到其他位置。

​

三、解决问题 ②

1. 打开项目工程，全局搜索 prefs:root= ，结果如下：

在SJPermissionManager类中，针对iOS8以前的系统，使用了prefs:root=的方案，跳转系统设置页面。

解决方案：⛳️
目前项目兼容iOS8以上的系统，所以直接删除即可。
