PreflightKit Get PreflightKit — $47 Get it — $47

Your last App Store rejection.

PreflightKit gives the coding agent you already use a real App Review audit. It checks your code and the archive you’re about to upload, then hands back a ranked fix list.

Your agent says it looks fine. App Review disagrees.

Ask a coding agent to check your app for App Store problems and it reads your source. App Review reads something else.

What your agent reads

  • Your Swift source
  • Your project settings
  • The Info.plist in your repo

What App Review reads

  • The signed Release archive you upload
  • The privacy manifest of every SDK you link
  • Your store listing and review notes
  • Your app, on a fresh account and a clean device

So it comes back like this, a day or more after you submit:

  • Rejected Guideline 5.1.1

    Privacy: Data Collection and Storage

    The purpose string for camera access doesn’t explain how the app uses it.

  • Rejected ITMS-91053

    Missing API declaration

    The app calls an API that requires a reason, and its privacy manifest doesn’t give one.

  • Rejected Guideline 5.1.1(v)

    Account deletion

    The app lets people create an account but gives them no way to delete it in the app.

The fix takes minutes. Finding out takes a round trip to App Review, and the next review can find something the first one didn’t.

PreflightKit makes your agent read what App Review reads.

It’s a skill for the coding agent you already use. Run it before you submit: it audits your project and the archive you’re about to upload, then your agent fixes what it finds.

  1. 01

    Install

    One command adds PreflightKit to the agents on your machine.

  2. 02

    Run

    A local scanner reads your code and the Release archive, and your agent works through the review checklist.

    /preflightkit:audit
  3. 03

    Fix

    You get a ranked fix list. Every finding names its file, line or guideline, so your agent fixes the real thing.

Every finding is ranked by what it does to your release:

  • BLOCKER Stops the release. Fix it before you submit.
  • WARNING Draws a question from review. Fix it or record why.
  • MANUAL Needs your eyes — with the exact check to run.
  • PASS Proven with a command or an artifact.

A few of the things it catches, and where App Review finds them:

In your code

  • Camera, location, or contacts used with no purpose string ITMS-90683
  • Google or Facebook login with no Sign in with Apple 4.8
  • UIWebView still referenced anywhere ITMS-90809
  • Background modes declared that nothing uses 2.5.4

In the archive you upload

  • get-task-allow left in a distribution build Signing
  • Local StoreKit test config bundled in the app 2.1
  • Simulator slices in the release executable Upload
  • App Store icon with an alpha channel ITMS-90717

In your privacy declarations

  • Required-reason API used with no manifest entry ITMS-91053
  • Apple-listed SDK shipped without its own manifest ITMS-91061
  • Tracking switched on with no tracking domains 5.1.2
  • No export-compliance answer, so every upload stalls Export

In what the reviewer sees

  • Accounts created in-app with no in-app deletion 5.1.1(v)
  • In-app purchases with no restore path 3.1.1
  • localhost, example.com, or TODO left in release paths 2.1
  • Review notes with no demo account 2.1

  • A scanner, not a checklist

    It opens the archive and reads what’s in it: entitlements, embedded frameworks, privacy manifests, encryption answers. Your agent gets evidence instead of having to remember rules.

  • Every finding shows its source

    A file and line, a path inside the archive, or a guideline number, so you can check its work in seconds.

  • Nothing passes without proof

    A check passes only when a command or an artifact proves it. What a build can’t prove becomes a manual check, with the steps to run.

Tested on 10 apps it had never seen.

We took 10 real App Store apps, found what App Review would flag in each, and asked the same coding agent to audit every one, with and without PreflightKit.

How often the audit caught every problem

A bar is the share of audits that flagged everything wrong with the app. At 100%, nothing went to review unflagged. Below that, some audits would have.

What that costs. A problem the audit misses is something App Review can stop your build for, and a round trip through review takes a day or two. A PreflightKit audit takes about 1.4 minutes and costs about a cent in model usage.

Before you buy.

My agent already reviews my code. Why do I need this?
App Review doesn’t read your code. It reads the signed archive, every SDK’s privacy manifest, your listing and a fresh account. PreflightKit points your agent at those.
Does PreflightKit send my code anywhere?
No. It runs locally and never sends your code, archive or report to us.
What if review still comes back with something?
Every finding carries the command or artifact behind it, and rejection-response support is built in, so you can answer the same afternoon.
What happens when the guidelines change?
The checks move with them. Every update is yours for life, including new major versions.
What do I need to run it?
Your app’s repository and the agent you already use. For the full audit: macOS, the Xcode you submit from, and your App Store Connect metadata.
