Has anyone successfully got an unlisted app approved? I cannot find reference to anyone that has. We applied over 6 weeks ago and have no response. We have sent several emails to their review support and requested callbacks but still our app has not been reviewed.
There is absolutly no way to track the progress of where the unlisted app approval is

Thanks jon_doyle. Hopefully you can get yours through. We have just gone back to square 1 submitting it all again. Hopefully we will get a response this time around.
Our app has somehow been approved for public distribution (it really shouldn't be). So we are waiting for it to get the unlisted distribution so it can be reflected in the pricing and availability section before we release.
OK. So we got there in the end. The process they document to get an unlisted app listed is not right. We had to make a copy of our existing app that is distributed via ABM and change is icon and package name.
The correct steps to follow are
Submit your app for review (pending developer release). Put in the notes that it is to be an unlisted app
Submit the unlisted app request by filling out the form
Get the app passing review for everything but rejections quoting guideline 3.2 (Our app actually got full approval without the unlisted app status which it shouldn't)
If you get the app past review do not deploy until you get an email saying it has been approved as an unlisted app.
5) Release your app
