App Review process timelines for ChatGPT App Store

ChatGPT Apps SDK

Hi OpenAI Team,

We had submitted our app for review on 1st April 2026, We received an acknowledgement email as soon as we submitted at that time (screenshot attached).

But the App is still under “Review” state since about ~14 days now.

Can you please help us understand the timeline for the review process so we can publish and update our apps accordingly.
I am asking this because usually for mobile apps it takes about ~1-2 days for review and approval process so we can usually release features/bugfixes much faster.

Thanks

Been through it a few times now. It’s very slow and much slower than say the Apple App Store. 30 days or more is not uncommon. Good luck!

I have had apps in review for 90 days.

Hi @shubham.sharma

Review times can vary right now since the Apps SDK and app directory are still in beta, and the process is still evolving.

In some cases, reviews may take longer than expected. If your app has been in review for a while, the team will reach out as soon as there’s an update.

Times vary from 60 days to 120 days in my experience.

Yeah, we have a couple apps in review for over a month easily now. Worst of all is, when your app is rejected normally the reasoning is completely automated and without specifics…

Hi there, how recently did you run into this? We recently tracked this down (like last week) and the underspecification should be fixed.

Answered via DM so I can send the app submission ID.

Data point that looks like a process gap: our app “SEO, GEO & Ads - Ryze AI” was approved back in May (v1.0.0) but we’ve never been able to publish it - publishing is blocked by the updated image requirements, which can’t be fixed on an approved version. Per the error, we created a new draft and resubmitted: v2.0.0, submission ID C-PysrCnPPne3P - in review for a while now, no feedback. Support (case 14472625) confirmed the submission is complete.

Net effect: an approved app, unpublishable for months, with our launch next week. Would hugely appreciate anyone from the apps team taking a look - or confirming it’s in the active queue.
