In my experience, being "in review" for a very long time means that something in your app has triggered an internal discussion. Since it's internal, it's entirely opaque to you. Imagine that there is a group of people wrangling their schedules to meet a few times and talk about your app, if it helps. It might even be true. But aside from that possibility, I know that iOS review times have grown lengthy due to the huge number of apps being readied for the iOS 6 / iPhone 5 release. Pure speculation on my part, but I guess it's possible that Mac app reviewers have been temporarily reallocated to iOS app reviews. |

This!
My first iOS app for my previous startup got stuck in the review process for almost a month. In the end, Apple's review team called me about some clarifications. Turned out, they were trying to decide whether they wanted to approve some of the things our app was doing. After a couple of calls, they approved it.
For my current startup, we've again been stuck in the review process for almost a month. I can see from our logs that different reviewers have tried the app over the last month. Yesterday, Apple's review team informed me that they need to talk to me about the app. Let's see what the hold-up is this time.
In any case, I'm just glad that they reach out to us to resolve the issues/get clarifications instead of just rejecting the apps.
