App Store review failure

After waiting 7 days my app went into 'In Review' status. 2 hours later it failed, judging server logs it was obvious the app hadn't even been launched by anyone, the failure was from an automated test.The fail: One of my classes was acting as a delegate to a NSUrlConnection and that was all fine, I implemented the appropriate delegate methods, however I made the mistake of declaring the delegate method on my interface .h file. Force of habit, if I have implemented it, i tend to declare it on…See More

It might appear that you are selling your app in every app store; in Tunes Connect there may be a check next to each of the individual stores, and you have probably ticked “New Territories As Added” too, so that when a new store is added your app is automatically available in the new store.
