Apple’s App Store is in crisis
September 21st, 2008
Yet another app has been rejected for “competing” with Apple’s own apps, even though it doesn’t. This after the WiFi podcaster downloader also being rejected for alleged competition, and some apps being rejected for “limited utility” (yeah, because a dozen identikit ToDo apps are much more useful). Even Mac fans are unhappy.
I was really interested in the App Store, to the point where I was cursing my lack of a Mac to try it out. Clearly there is stacks of cash to be made. But if I was considering setting up a startup to write iPhone apps right now, I think I’d be reconsidering my business plan.
