Yesterday my app was rejected for having an exit popup. I have a paywall, then if the user clicks X I show a 30% off limited time offer.
Apple rejected it saying :" The app attempts to manipulate customers into making unwanted in-app purchases. Specifically, after users close the subscription screen, another offer appears."
Any idea why? I mean, I see everywhere the exit popup, and we have been using it for a while, but suddenly the last updated was rejected.
Apple actually doesn't allow this pattern. What developers will do is turn on a specific paywall for the review team and then switch their paywall tests back when the new app version is approved. Unfortunately this is one of many games developers have to play in order to try and maximize revenue.
