You can, indeed, but all apps have to pass Apple review. So they can still reject app on vague reasons.

  That’s not true, they get notarized but not reviewed.

    You are right, apps are not reviewed by humans. But there is automatic review in the process of notarization. And you still need to ask apple for all entitlements you need (Critical alerts, CarPlay etc), as in the case mentioned in this blog post.

    guessing it won't be long until they add an LLM type thing into the mix. Then they will "claim" it's automated and fair.

    Bullshit. "Notiarization" for iOS apps in the EU is just App Review by another name, completely different from the automated Notarization they originally introduced for macOS apps. https://mjtsai.com/blog/2024/03/17/ios-notarizations-human-review/ https://mjtsai.com/blog/2024/03/17/ios-notarizations-human-r... https://mjtsai.com/blog/2024/06/14/utm-blocked-outside-app-store-via-notarization/ https://mjtsai.com/blog/2024/06/14/utm-blocked-outside-app-s...
