For the past four years, my app has been live on the Play Store and is also accessible on several other platforms. Despite this, my attempts to publish it on the App Store have been consistently rejected citing Guideline 4.1 - Design - Copycats. Apple has not specified the exact proof of rights they are looking for. To address this, I have recorded my personal Google Play Developer Console account to showcase that I possess all the required rights to manage the app on Google Play. I am seeking advice on the best course of action to resolve this issue.

I have faced multiple rejections for my app due to the same issue. However, the Apple reviewer has not provided any specific information about where the issue lies, making it difficult for me to address it. In the subsequent steps, I was instructed to thoroughly review the app store review guidelines and ensure compliance with them, which I have done.
I have also reached out to the app review team but have not received a response yet. It is frustrating that the email does not mention the exact content that is being considered as copied. It feels like a generic message, and I am unsure about the next course of action.
If anyone has been in a similar situation or has insights into what might be happening, I would greatly appreciate your input. Thank you.
