After I developped my Firefox OS application, I submitted it on the marketplace. After a few days, my queue position became 10 of xx (and didn't move) :

Created: May 29, 2013 Status: Pending approval Packaged App Version: 0.6.1 Queue position: 10 of 108 Estimated waiting time: 1 working day Price: FREE

Since a few weeks, it became 5 of xx and didn't move neither :

Created: May 29, 2013 Status: Pending approval Packaged App Version: 0.6.1 Queue position: 5 of 108 Estimated waiting time: 1 working day Price: FREE

So, since a lot of weeks, the estimated waiting time is stopped to "1 working day".

When is my app supposed to be released and is it a known issue ?

The app validation is manual. So the time for validating an app can be long.

Mozilla looks for new reviewers for improving this time (Source : https://blog.mozilla.org/apps/2013/05/20/become-a-marketplace-app-reviewer/)

  • So, we can't trust the queue position and the estimated waiting time ? – Flolink Jun 28 '13 at 08:39
  • The review process depends on volunteers and is not quick. I waited three weeks to get my app reviewed and then another week and a half when they found problems with the manifest file, problems that were not picked up by the manifest validator. – Alex Theedom Jun 29 '13 at 16:47
  • I think you can trust the queue position, but not the estimated waiting time, badly :( – Progi1984 Jul 01 '13 at 07:48
  • I can't because a lot of apps appears in the marketplace while my app is still blocked to 10, or 5 or (now) 4. – Flolink Jul 01 '13 at 13:34
