Of all the reasons I thought I might be rejected, I never thought this might be a possibility! "The usefulness of the app is limited by the minimal functionality it currently provides. "

My app lets you track where you are in TV shows - you can add a show, tag shows (which appear as tabs), expand a show's seasons, mark an episode as watched, tap an episode to view its summary, and (if you have It installed) open the episode in Callsheet.

You can also get a notification when a new season of a show drops.

**Does anyone have experience with dealing with this kind of rejection? ** I'm wondering if they are dealing with an onslaught of "vibe coded" apps and are being more liberal with this rejection (this is not vibe coded!).

The whole point of this app is that I didn't want a cluttered app with recommendations and other nonsense - I specifically wanted a simple, clean UI.
