以下是App应用的几种状态，如果看不到英文，建议复制到网站翻译一下就行，意思差不多能明白的
以上整套流程是在2013年写的，可能有些地方已经不太一样了，只是给大家做一下参考，毕竟再怎么改大概流程还是差不多的
Waiting for Upload (Yellow)
Appears when you’ve completed entering your metadata, however, you have
not finished uploading your binary or have chosen to upload your binary
at a later time. Your app must be in the Waiting For Upload state before
you can deliver your binary through Application Loader.
Prepare for Upload (Yellow)
Appears when you have created a new version, but you have not yet
clicked the Ready to Submit Binary button. This state also indicates
that you can now deliver your binary through Application Loader.
Upload Received (Yellow)
Appears when your binary has been received through Application
Loader, but is still being processed by the iTunes Connect system.
Invalid Binary (Red)
Appears when a binary is received through Application Loader, has been
processed, but your binary is invalid. Examples of an invalid binary
are: your binary icon does not meet our requirements, you have placed
the payload directory at the wrong level in the .app wrapper, you
attempted to use a non-increasing CFBundleVersion, etc.
Missing Screenshot (Red)
Appears when your app is missing a required screenshot for iPhone and
iPod touch or iPad for your default language app or for your added
localizations. At least one screenshot is required for both iPhone and
iPod touch and for iPad if you are submitting a universal app.
Waiting for Review (Yellow)
Appears after you submit a new application or update and prior to
the application being reviewed by Apple. This status means that your app
has been added to the app review queue, but has not yet started the
review process.
Waiting For Export Compliance (Yellow)
Appears when your CCATS is in review with Export Compliance.
In Review (Yellow)
Appears when we are reviewing your app prior to the application being
approved or rejected. It takes time to review binaries so we appreciate
your patience and ask that you allow sufficient time for the processing
of your application. When the status of your application is in review,
you have the option to reject the binary you have submitted by clicking
Reject Binary. This will remove your binary from the review queue and
will allow for another update to be submitted. If you reject your
binary, the status of your app will change to Developer Rejected and
when your binary is re-submitted, the review process will start over
from the beginning.
Pending Contract (Yellow)
Appears when your application has been reviewed and is Ready for Sale
but your contracts are not yet in effect. You may check the progress of
your contracts in iTunes Connect by clicking on the Contracts, Tax &
Banking information module.
Pending Developer Release (Yellow)
Appears when the version of your app has been approved by Apple and you
have turned on the Version Release Control, but have not yet clicked
Send Version Live. You should also see a pending action symbol on the
version. Your version will remain in this state, and thus will not be
live on the App Store until you click Send Version Live.
Processing for App Store (Yellow)
Appears when the version is being processed to go live on the App Store.
Once the processing is complete, the version state will change to
“Ready for Sale.” This is a temporary state (approx. 1 – 2 hours).
Ready for Sale (Green)
Appears once your application been approved and posted to the App Store.
When your application is in this status, you have the option to remove
it from the store by going to the Rights and Pricing page and removing
all App Store territories.
Rejected (Red)
Appears when the binary has been rejected.
Removed from Sale (Red)
Appears when the binary has been removed from the App Store.
Developer Rejected (Red)
Appears when youʼve rejected the binary from the review process.
Existing versions of your application on the App Store will not be
affected by self-rejecting binaries in review.
Important: When you self-reject your binary, you lose your place in the review queue. Your binary will be placed at the end of the queue when you resubmit.
Developer Removed from Sale (Red)
Appears when you’ve removed your application from the App Store.
