My item’s status says "pending review." What does this mean?
Pending review means our automated systems have flagged your item for manual review. Some of the reasons an item could be flagged for manual review include:
The item may have an NPAPI plugin, which requires a signed agreement from you. Check your email account associated with the item for an agreement notification from our abuse team.
The item is suspected to contain or to be distributed by malware or unwanted software.
The item is suspected to violate one of the developer program policies.
The item may have already been previously removed for a legal or policy violation, and has been resubmitted.
Note that both new item submissions as well as updates to existing items are subject to automated system checks and may be flagged for manual review. Unfortunately, it’s hard for us to provide guidance on how long manual reviews will take, as it depends on the nature of the issue. For specific questions or concerns, please fill out our developer support here.
