    > it was rejected. They attached a nsfw screenshot of some unidentified app.

    I don’t doubt the author, at the same time this is a serious accusation with no details and little context.

    This could have been presented in a more organized way, with timelines and redacted content.

    Part of the problem is Google not being transparent, having more transparency could help.

      You know, personal anecdotes and all that, but a company I used to work with was applying for their b2b app as well and we got a denied with a screenshot of a completely unrelated app as well, and that was at least 5 years ago. We ended up just replying "That's not our app" and I think it got stuck in limbo after that as I don't recall hearing anything about it afterwards and then I left the company.
