Rejected by App Review: reply, fix or appeal, in order
A rejection from App Review is a message with a guideline number, and that number decides whether you reply, fix and resubmit, or appeal. A sensible order, how resubmitting the same version works, what happens to your in-app purchases, what a 5.6 date means, and what not to do.
