EasyTallys
iOS correction: 1.0.2, build 1.0.1; other platform releases must be assessed using their own submitted builds.
Open app-specific record →Developer-prepared record · September 12, 2026
Seven App Store listings. Distinct editions, platform versions, and evidence boundaries.
The developer reports that the appeal form allows only five app entries. That interface limit must not narrow this account-level appeal. The seven confirmed listings are included below; iOS and Mac entries may be listed separately in the form. The two preserved screenshots show per-app fields and a character limit, not the five-entry cap. This is not presented as an independently verified Apple-wide rule.
EasyTallys appears first because it has a documented prior issue. This ordering does not establish which app caused the account decision.
iOS correction: 1.0.2, build 1.0.1; other platform releases must be assessed using their own submitted builds.
Open app-specific record →Developer-confirmed distributed iOS version: 1.0.8. Advertising-supported configuration manager.
Open app-specific record →iOS 1.0.7 and Mac 1.0.1. Both are distributed PRO versions, not merely local experiments.
Open app-specific record →Paid, ad-free iOS and Mac configuration client; separate from SpellVPN Ultra.
Open app-specific record →iOS edition with advertising and optional StoreKit auto-renewing subscriptions.
Open app-specific record →Free, advertising-supported video editor; a separate listing from ArtCut Pro.
Open app-specific record →Paid, ad-free video editor; separate App Store ID and compile-time distribution branch.
Open app-specific record →Before the September 2 Pending Termination Notice, EasyTallys was In Review. The other six listings — VPN XX, VPN XX PRO, SpellVPN Tool, SpellVPN Ultra, ArtCut and ArtCut Pro — were shown as Distributable.
The developer now reports that all seven apps have been removed from the public App Store, while their status records remain visible in App Store Connect. Storefront removal does not mean that the app records or platform/version statuses have disappeared. A visible status is not evidence of restored distribution or membership.
This clarification was supplied by the developer on September 13. It is not an independent live check of App Store Connect, an Apple receipt, or a change to the preserved September 12 source evidence.
Download status clarification (TXT)We request reconsideration of the pending membership termination and an opportunity to have corrected submissions reviewed. We acknowledge the specific issues and disclosure gaps described app by app below. We ask App Review to assess the entire account, not only the entries selectable in the form, and to identify any additional app, platform, build, feature, content source, or communication relied upon. If conduct involving another listing contributed to the decision, please specify it so we can respond with relevant facts. This is a supplement to the appeal already reported as queued, not a claim of approval or a request to bypass review.
Status is historical, not live: the developer supplied the September 2 notice and later correspondence confirming the appeal was queued. No restored membership, app approval, or termination hold has been confirmed. Updating this site does not modify installed binaries or App Store metadata.
The record combines developer-confirmed release history, current local source excerpts, local metadata drafts, and two original developer-supplied form screenshots. These are different evidence types. No exact historical upload archives, Apple upload receipts, production service authorization documents, or new App Store approvals are included. A SHA-256 digest identifies the captured bytes; it does not certify that Apple reviewed or received them. Selected excerpts are not an exhaustive code or binary audit.
This is a public, sanitized record with identical content for all readers. It omits personal account identifiers, private correspondence, node credentials and working public subscription URLs. It is not password protected. Original materials can be provided privately to Apple through an appropriate channel if requested. Search-engine noindex is a preference, not access control.
Explanatory pages are available in English, Chinese and Russian. Source excerpts and original screenshots remain unchanged in their original languages; translations are not original evidence.
Complete Russian record (TXT)Each downloadable item states its provenance, limitations and hashes. The full record contains the bilingual app statements and all text excerpts; the original PNG files are available separately below.

1 | # Guideline 5.6 Resolution Center Response
2 |
3 | Thank you for identifying this issue. We reviewed the rejected build and found that the production app target incorrectly retained an internal screenshot workflow. That workflow included launch arguments and environment variables that could inject sample records, force a local data store, bypass the privacy lock, and simulate iCloud or App Group availability. We understand that retaining this behavior in a production build was inappropriate and could appear intentionally hidden.
4 |
5 | The new build removes that workflow completely:
6 |
7 | - All screenshot-only data creation, deletion, and injection code has been removed.
8 | - All forced-local-store launch arguments and environment variables have been removed.
9 | - All privacy-lock and automatic-lock bypasses have been removed.
10 | - All simulated iCloud and App Group status results have been removed.
11 | - All language- or region-based app-icon switching, the English alternate icon, and the related system-switch prompt have been removed. Every user now receives the same primary "好记" icon.
12 | - Ledger, account, transaction, collaborator, and cold-wallet screens now display only data actually created and stored by the user.
13 | - The submitted Release binary contains no screenshot route, language override, demo-data, forced-local-store parameter, or alternate app icon.
14 |
15 | The app does not hide or reveal features based on reviewer identity, date, region, device, build source, or server configuration. App Review and all users now execute the same Release code path. All features are accessible through the normal user interface, and the App Store description and screenshots explicitly disclose shared ledgers and the on-device cold wallet vault.
16 |
17 | No backend account is required. iCloud and shared-ledger features can be tested on a device signed in to an Apple ID.

143 | Hello App Review Team,
144 | Thank you for reviewing our app.
145 | As explained in our response dated August 11, we investigated the previous rejection and identified an internal screenshot-production workflow that had been mistakenly retained in the production target. We understand why the presence of that workflow could have appeared to be hidden behavior.
146 | We have now submitted a corrected iOS binary:
147 | Version 1.0.2 (Build 1.0.1)
148 | This build supersedes the previously rejected binary and includes the following remediation:
149 | - All screenshot-only sample-data creation, deletion, and injection code has been removed.
150 | - The Release binary contains no screenshot route, demo-data parameter, forced-local-store parameter, language override, privacy-lock bypass, or automatic-lock bypass.
151 | - All simulated iCloud and App Group results have been removed. The app now displays only the actual status reported by Apple system services.
152 | - No alternate app-icon switching is available in the Release build. Every user receives the same primary “好记” icon.
153 | - Ledger, account, transaction, collaborator, and cold-wallet screens display only information created and stored by the user.
154 | - The app does not change, hide, or reveal functionality based on reviewer identity, date, region, device, build source, network response, or server configuration.
155 | - App Review and all users execute the same Release code path.
156 | EasyTallys (“好记”) is a local-first personal and family bookkeeping app. It has no developer-hosted account or backend, no advertising, no third-party analytics, no remote feature configuration, no in-app purchases or paywall, and does not download executable code or configuration that changes its functionality.
157 | Ledger data is stored on the user’s device. If the user enables iCloud, ledger data is synchronized only through Apple CloudKit under the user’s own Apple ID. No developer-provided login credentials are required.
158 | All features are accessible through the normal user interface:
159 | - Bookkeeping features are available from Overview, Transactions, Accounts, Budgets, Reports, and Library.
160 | - CloudKit shared-ledger features are available under Library > Sharing. Testing requires a device signed in to an Apple ID.
161 | - The on-device Keychain vault is available under Library > Cold Wallets. It only stores information manually entered by the user in the current device’s ThisDeviceOnly Keychain. It does not create cryptocurrency wallets, connect to blockchain services, perform transfers or trading, or upload vault information to any server.
162 | These features are also disclosed in the App Store description, screenshots, and Notes for Review.
163 | We respectfully request that App Review evaluate Version 1.0.2 (Build 1.0.1).
164 | If App Review still observes behavior associated with Guideline 5.6 in this corrected build, could you please identify the specific feature, navigation path, review steps, device conditions, or provide a screenshot of the observed behavior? This information would allow us to reproduce and address the concern immediately.

62 | ### Short Description
63 |
64 | SpellVPN Ultra is a VPN configuration client for iPhone and iPad. It helps you import and manage configurations you are allowed to use, including sing-box, Clash/Mihomo, Shadowsocks, VLESS, Trojan, and other common proxy formats. You can import by URL, QR code, clipboard, file, or iCloud Drive, organize nodes, and start a real iOS Packet Tunnel through Apple Network Extension.
65 |
66 | SpellVPN Ultra is free to download and may show ads while no subscription is active. Weekly, monthly, quarterly, and yearly auto-renewable subscriptions remove ads and keep Ultra benefits active. Purchases and restores are handled by Apple ID and the App Store.
67 |
68 | ### Long Description
69 |
70 | SpellVPN Ultra helps you manage your own VPN configurations, subscriptions, and proxy nodes in one place. It is designed for users who already have lawful access to VPN or proxy configurations and need a clean way to import, organize, test, and connect them on iOS.
71 |
72 | Key features:
73 |
74 | - Import subscription URLs, proxy links, QR codes, clipboard text, and local config files
75 | - Support sing-box JSON, Clash/Mihomo YAML, Base64 subscriptions, and common proxy links
76 | - Organize node groups, search nodes, switch nodes, and run basic reachability checks
77 | - Start or stop an iOS Packet Tunnel with one tap
78 | - View connection status, logs, traffic stats, and basic network information
79 | - Use DNS lookup, HTTP test, TLS test, IP lookup, and other network tools
80 | - Back up and restore app data through iCloud Drive
81 | - Remove ads and keep Ultra benefits active with an Ultra subscription
82 |
83 | Important note:
84 |
85 | SpellVPN Ultra does not provide public built-in VPN server accounts. Users need to import configurations, subscriptions, or nodes they are allowed to use. VPN connectivity and performance depend on the imported configuration, remote server, and current network conditions.
