IMG_1587.jpg - not sharply focused and the composition is messy. I don't see any commercial use for such an image.

IMG_9864.jpg - oversaturated, chromatic aberration and lacking sharp detail

IMG_3287_jpg.jpg - blurry and white balance is too blue

Your iPhone swallows details in the images if the shooting conditions are not optimal.

You can look at the 100 million images already in Adobe Stock. But beware! You only see a reduced size preview. Many faults can only be seen by zooming in on the ORIGINAL picture to maybe 200%. Be sure you are doing this, and seeing only perfection, everywhere in your images. Detail should be sharp and clear, without imperfections. It needs even more skill to get a great commercial shot using an iPhone than with a fancier camera. If you don't have commercial experience consider joining a camera club, to learn the special craft of making world class photography for commercial use.

Thank you for the tip! It is extremely useful to apply the scope of inspecting the file at 200%; I'll use this as my new method for testing quality.

The third photo has a white balance issue.

To to add to the links you're given you may also find some useful information that can help you identify and resolve issues with your photos here.

Thank you, Jill_C. I'll be more mindful. Can you share any links to great examples for what is considered acceptable Adobe Stock images?

I would suggest that you just search for images in the Adobe Stock database in your keyword category. Also, join the Stock Discord channel where they host frequent talks on getting your work accepted as well as analysis of rejected images.
