We just received word that Apple has misplaced/lost the robot demo that we had sent them for review. Hopefully they will relocate it to continue the review. Due to this, the review has been rejected until they can find the robot for testing.
Not sure how it happened - I dropped it off personally and handed it right to them. The status of the App changed back to In Review a few days after giving them the robot. Today it changed to "Rejected" and the reason says

Thank you for your resubmission. However, we have begun the review of your app but aren't able to continue because we need additional information about your app.
1.) Can you please provide additional tracking information in order for us to locate the product?
Not quite sure how that happened - considering I was in California at 1 Infinite Loop, walked in the doors of the main building and handed the parcel to reception. I even had reception verify the internal address - telling her that it is important it gets delivered because we are out stock (at the time of delivery) and this is the only Six available for review at the moment.
I've said a few times "I'm sure it'll be fine" about this review process. It's getting harder to say
That's extremely frustrating, for you and for us. Hopefully they are not creating their own I robots ( pun intended) and sweeping six under the rug.
Let's just hope for the best and it will show up on the right persons desk soon. I was really holding out for this one. I'll keep my fingers crossed too.
Thanks for keeping us in the loop about its progress.
That´s absolutelly unbelievable! I know they receive hundreds of apps everyday.. but they should show more respect about other people work!
I am shure that if Steve Jobs were alive things would run in another way.
if only the Iphone and Ipad was not so great, I would consider to change for Android..
Not to take this in an iPhone vs Android throwdown, but Android has always been more capable than iPhone, and the latest devices from HTC in particular, but also Samsung, LG, and Motorola equal or better the hardware build quality.
I used to advise people that if they wanted to be on the cutting edge of technology they should get an Android, and if they just wanted a smartphone that worked flawlessly to go with an iPhone, but that is no longer true. iPhone has had its share of flaws, and top of the line Android phones are as easy to use and reliable as anything Apple has ever done.
There are only three apps that are available for iPhone that I haven't found Android equivalents for that I have interest in, and they are all niche products and one supports a piece of hardware that isn't available yet, and there will probably be Android support before long.

I told you they only wanted to play with it. Some Apple engineer took it home and they are delaying approval until everyone gets a chance...

If you make the switch, you won't be sorry.

I'd go to press about that tbh. It works for other companies.
