All my games so far started to be reviewed right after 7 business days and approved on the same day
(Except one game which had a naming issue - conflicted with a TM)

Mine are pretty simple games. Complexity of a game counts, I guess (?)

Default This is how we get an app "In review"

Submitted "Slice to Unlock" July 05 waited patiently for two weeks. Nothing not even in review? Sent an email to app review. Get back some standard email telling me not to worry each app has different review lengths etc. (But the app wasn't even in review?)

Called on the 18 th asked for some help to get the app in review. Finally someone called back saying they would try to get the app looked at.

If i don't call the app will simply sit there for another few weeks just to go "In review"

They definitely are not using the submission date to process apps seems very random. We also find apps just simply get forgotten.

We got bit by this as well, Shatter Crash has been waiting for review for about 9 days. I foolishly expected 6-7 days, lesson learned for future planning.

Thanks for that site jeremy, definitely bookmarking that!

The "word on the street" is that with the Apple's recent change to keyword functionality, there's been a higher volume of re-submissions by developers. It's retarded that you can only edit/update keywords when you update your binary which may be the cause of the longer review/approval times.

They do that so you can't go in after launch and change it all to "angry birds cut the fruit ninja rope".

Our recent GBWG submission took six days but was put on hold for a week to get some review codes out. So they did it slightly faster than average even when there was no pressure on.

Maybe that's the answer?

Same here: it used to take 7 days for an update to get approved, now it took 11 days. Anyway, not a big deal - still better than the usual 14+ days back in 2009...
They must be quite busy with iOS6 / Mountain Lion testing.
