Hence, you are strongly advised to submit your app for review when it completed and make sure that you have tested your app on multiple Apple devices and fixed all bugs prior to submit your app.
4. Keep it simple
It is extremely important for any app to succeed that the users understand an connect with your app. Users don’t prefer complex things and they end up discarding the apps that are difficult to understand. Hence, your app description and screen-shots must depict the functionality of your app.
5. Quick Load Time

6. Work well on UI/UX
It is to be noted, that Apple gives preference to the apps that are quite simple to use, have proper navigation with an attractive user interface. UI plays a very important role in the litmus test of an app and if this stage goes by, probability of success increases. Therefore do an extensive research on UI and UX and then work on the same.
7. Don’t Submit demo apps
Apple has quite stringent norms and it does not accept demo apps. Even if the app is in the beta stage, Apple doesn’t entertain it. Hence, make sure that your app is complete and is working accurately.
8. Always Respect Apple’s Guidelines
Last but not the least, do follow the Apple interface guidelines. Do you know that about 75% apps are rejected because of not respecting Apple Interface Guidelines? Therefore, adhere to the rules and regulations of Apple and entry to the app store would be a cakewalk for you.
