WhatsApp Meta App Review
Use this skill to convert a WhatsApp SaaS into an approval-ready Meta App Review submission.
Workflow
- Identify the exact permissions in scope and the user's current review status.
- Check whether the product already proves three things inside the app:
- onboarding through Meta Embedded Signup,
- reading real WhatsApp assets,
- sending a real approved template.
- Read the reference file that matches the task:
references/approved-flow.md for the approved screencast structure and narrationreferences/submission-copy.md for permission notes and reviewer-facing languagereferences/rejection-patterns.md for common rejection causes and concrete fixes
- Produce the smallest useful artifact:
- revised permission notes,
- video script,
- review checklist,
- review-only page requirements,
- or rejection remediation plan.
Guardrails
- Do not recommend requesting permissions before the core path is real.
- Require the app to show actual in-product evidence, not only Postman, n8n, or logs.
- Keep the video linear and short.
- Make the written notes match the screencast exactly.
- Prefer English UI, narration, and reviewer notes unless the user explicitly wants another language.
Minimum proof standard
Treat these as non-negotiable for approval work:
- the business connects its own account,
- the app reads the connected phone number and templates,
- the app sends an approved template,
- the recipient device shows the delivered message.
Output style
- Be specific and reviewer-friendly.
- Phrase notes as product behavior, not vague API claims.
- When asked to fix a rejection, map each reviewer complaint to the missing proof in the product or the video.
