Hi all,
Roh, thanks for your update. I already went ahead and tried to explain to the Apple Review Team about this thread and they told me to re-submit. Concerned that I would have an Android release and not an Apple release I took the decision to rather remove autoupdate from the settings in Appery, export again to Xcode, build and submit again, except for the new version (1.2) I explained in the notes that I had disabled auto update and that I had taken advice from this thread. This morning I released my hard efforts into the big wide world. Yipee.
So thanks go to the great comments above mine for explaining the bug, thanks Roh for leaving this valuable update of your own experience and thanks to Appery for sorting the bug and having a new release in the coming week or so. I look forward to it.
Cheers
