Hi friends,
This file was rejected due to "similar content". I hope to receive criticism about the file so that I can improve in my future project.
Any suggestions are appreciated.

    Rejection due to similar content isn't solely due to the asset's content.
    Improperly set titles and keywords for assets can also lead to rejection.

    Adobe Stock has a vast number of assets registered.
    Since purchases are made based on search results using titles and keywords, it's essential to set appropriate words for your assets.
    Furthermore, if similar assets exist, you need to consider the theme before creating your design.

    Speech+Bubble returns 3 million results.

    Maybe that’s why yours got flagged for “similar content.”

    https://stock.adobe.com/search?k=speech+bubble

     

    There’s no room for copy inside fruits. So not sure what commercial value these would have for potential customers.

     

    Although there may be multiple reasons for refusal, Stock reviewers are not allowed to check more than one refusal box per submission. So the review ends at problem #1.

     

    Keep that in mind if you decide to resubmit this later.

    Not much we can do to be of help. I would suggest you search the forum for “similar content” to see other posts on the subject and what some have tried to circumvent such rejections. Suffice it to say you are not alone and this issue has been going on for nearly a year.
