App Update submission certification taking longer than it ever has

[DaveGx]

I submitted an app update yesterday morning. Now I know it says it can take up to 5 days, but Ive never had to wait more than a few hours for my app update to be certified. Its been stuck at Pending Certification for a day now. Should I be concerned?

No, 1 day is not long , it used to be days, becomes faster after store police is changed .

Most of my submissions have taken 5 days. What's super frustrating is that it has taken 5 days for a simple descrtption change with the exact same xap.

It could be that my Pebble apps have required exception certification forms since they connect with the Pebble watch but still it seams to take too long.

I thought that I heard MS was now certifying apps now without a human reviewer so hopefully things will speed up.
