Apple, Google and Microsoft might just stop you as they get a better cut from the multimillion dollar app partners. Or your app might have some libraries that are having security issues.

I'd happily change the libs if there was an issue. I'm not aware of any and Apple hasn't indicated any. I take effort to keep libraries up to date, but certainly don't have everything on latest.

Do you embed any monitoring, performance tracking, revenue-generation, advertising, or tracing tools in the app? Did you at any previous time?

(I think it's just as likely that you're pattern-matching against stalker software that Apple screens for, just by dint of what your app does).

2.5 years ago I had Bugsnag setup as part of the app, but removed it in the redesign because the developer agreement indicated something about analytics/tracking and I felt it'd be safest just to remove it. No advertising tracking in the MacOS app ever.
