Reply to ITMS-90863: Apple silicon Macs support issue - The app uses symbols that are not present on Mac:
A quick look at Apples Documentation shows that 'FloatingPointFormatStyle' is available since macOS 12. https://developer.apple.com/documentation/foundation/floatingpointformatstyle macOS 12 is still beta, so not much of your customers Macs are now running under macOS 12. And you can't expect them to update in the minute it is released. Greetings Brigitte

Reply to Ask for app feedback as an intermediate step before app review
Well, I can't see any fooling of the rating system. The user can leave a review whenever he wants. Asking for a review when he's in a good mood is simple marketing. Even Apple gives tips and tricks how to get good reviews from within an app. You can ask users to rate and review your app at appropriate times throughout the user experience. Make the request when users are most likely to feel satisfaction with your app, such as when they’ve completed an action, level, or task. Make sure not to interrupt their activity. The SKStoreReviewController API lets you give users an easy way to provide feedback about your app. You can prompt for ratings up to three times in a 365-day period. Users will submit a rating through the standardized prompt, and can write and submit a review without leaving the app. Ensure that your support contact information is easy to find in your app and on your App Store product page. This gives users a direct way to reach you if they encounter difficulties, and gives you an opportunity to resolve negative experiences that may otherwise lead to poor reviews.

Reply to How to grant access to Users Documents folder?
Take a look at Security-Scoped Bookmarks. You can find a short description how they work in the last half of this document: https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/documentation/Security/Conceptual/AppSandboxDesignGuide/AppSandboxInDepth/AppSandboxInDepth.html Nevertheless you have to ask for permission via NSOpenPanel for the file or the folder one time. Then you can persist the Security-Scoped Bookmark for future use. Greetings Brigitte

Reply to Notarized software still gets labelled with `com.apple.quarantine` attribute
I don't think it is a problem about notarization, but about your Developer Certificate.If an app isn't notarized properly, the message is somewhat about 'Isn't checked for malware'.The message you see indicates what it said: Your Developer ID can't be verified.If you want to distribute your app outside the Mac-Appstore you'll have to sign it with the Apple Development certificate, not with the Apple Distribution certificate. The Apple Distribution certificate is for distributing via Appstore.And:Nether sucessfull signing or notarisation will remove the quarantine-flag. The quarantine-flag tells macOS to check signing and notarisation.GreetingsBrigitte
