I have a couple of apps, and it's been mixed, sometimes it's as fast as before, 2-2 days, sometimes close to two weeks... (this for apps submitted in close proximity of each other)
Not the first time I hear about this kind of delay. It feels a bit like being held hostage :/ Distributing outside of the App Store definitely has its pros
2 weeks for first review, only to realize I made a mistake and had to resubmit. Then another 2 weeks. Last update was reviewed in 2 days though.
I had my app submitted on 17 October accepted on Friday, so basically 2 weeks. Used to be 1-2 days max.
