AI is turning Apple's app review process into a nightmare for synth developers

Apple's app review process for iOS music apps is becoming overwhelmed due to a surge of AI-generated applications, with an estimated 10-20 new music apps entering the market daily. While the review process traditionally took 24-48 hours, developers now report significantly longer wait times, as the influx of submissions—many created using AI tools—is pushing the system toward collapse. This creates challenges for legitimate synth and plugin developers trying to get their apps approved and released on the App Store.
