We just got an app removed from Google Play because the metadata included 
references to other works. That’s 6 years after the app was approved for the 
store. It’s not just Apple that do these things. Here’s the Google article on 
what will lead to a rejection:

I’ve had an app rejected for metadata, too.

I put an app of 20 single verse poems on the store. In my description of the 
app I mentioned that the poems were “under development” and I looked forward to 
feedback and adding new verses. The rejection stated that no “beta” software 
can be on the app store. All I did was remove “under development” from the 
description and then it was accepted.

be well,

I’ve seen similar issues if you add in awards, such as “Best App in Google 
Play”. Pretty sure Amazon are similar about promoting other apps stores, and 
even Google apps go through a review process.

You wouldn’t dream of putting “Support for iOS 12 and iPhone X” in your Android 
submissions, though you might get away with it. Just get used to only having 
meta data that is needed for that particular store.

BR,

I once got rejected for the same thing. When you play with a trillion dollar 
company they call all the shots.

Well, by setting the target to iOS 8. The apps went through. …but then

FWIW
It was rejected:

I got a message saying that "you have unfilter access to YouTube, you must set 
the app for (age) 12+) I had it sent for age 4+

Send for review; wait a day..

Rejected Again!
Guideline 2.3.10 - Performance - Accurate Metadata

We noticed that your app or its metadata includes irrelevant third-party 
platform information.
Specifically, your app includes Android references in the “app news” section.
Referencing third-party platforms in your app or its metadata is not permitted 
on the App Store unless there is specific interactive functionality.

Next Steps
To resolve this issue, please remove all instances of this information from 
your app and its metadata, including the app description, promotional text, 
What's New info, previews, and screenshots.
In the "App News" (which called from the server) I made the mistake of saying 
=== Version 1.3 With version 1.3, we hope to have resolved some issues for 
Android users. The operating system is more robust. The app is less likely to 
quite.]

So, if the see any reference to android, Rejected!
Somehow that feels "just wrong" to me… I use Macs but…. "greed incarnate" keeps
