To audit Info.plist for missing NSUsageDescription keys, scan your iOS project entries and cross-reference code usage patterns to verify required permission keys exist with meaningful descriptions. This identifies inadequate values that trigger App Store rejections under Guideline 5.1.1(ii).

Your iOS app gets rejected for vague permission descriptions because App Store Guideline 5.1.1(ii) requires NSUsageDescription keys to be present and highly descriptive. Third-party SDKs often introduce permissions silently, making automated audits necessary to find insufficient entries.

The best way to check Info.plist usage descriptions against code is to cross-reference Info.plist entries with common code paths. This verifies that declared NSUsageDescription keys align with the actual permissions requested by your app and its SDKs.

Yes, you need to scan common code paths to find missing NSUsageDescription keys introduced by third-party SDKs. Cross-referencing code usage patterns confirms required keys exist and ensures their descriptive values match the actual permissions requested.

Yes, you can generate prioritized remediation findings for iOS App Store compliance before submission. Auditing your Info.plist produces actionable notes detailing exactly which missing or insufficiently descriptive NSUsageDescription keys require updates.

You should run an Info.plist audit for macOS and iOS permission keys before App Store submission. Checking early ensures all required NSUsageDescription keys are present and descriptive, preventing last-minute rejections from missing or vague permission strings.
