What the clock measures

- Outcome not guaranteedReview & possible changes
- Separate later stagePublication, if approved
A process map, not your progress. Spacing does not represent duration.
- Starts with
- You submit the app for review.
- Ends with
- Approval, potentially after feedback and further changes; not guaranteed.
What can change the wait
- Waiting for a reviewer and addressing requested changes are different stages.
- Historic backlog notices and individual forum waits are not today’s forecast. Automated self-review does not replace human approval.
