[...] the other hand … Apple has consistently, time and time again, refused to allow this kind of app, both paid and unpaid. Why change that now? Why allow a handful of random developers the chance of [...]

Well… Protecting people from buying/loading an app which clearly is a joke says a lot about the iPhone community.

The app idea itself is funny in my eyes and there are apps in the store which are far worse than this idea.

It seems to late to hold a good quality standard and from that point of view I can’t understand why it is “rejected in advance” while other stupid stuff was allowed.

But the response itself is pretty good… and is what a lot more developers should have been told. But maybe not by apple but by their testers… or clients!

P.S.: I want a rating filter in the app-store NOW…

As long as it says that its a joke before the download, why not?

Its like they are some sort of crappy PC-police. (PC=Politically Correct)

They all die sooner or later.

The idea suks. It’s as bad as the fingerprint reader, fooling idiots. What’s next, an iPhone pregnancy test?

They are inventing a phone where you can charge by shaking. Like those flashlights. They should just put a warning there, and allow it. That would be a good show off thing. Hopefully it gets added onto say cydia or something

I can understand why this one wouldn’t be accepted.

That could be a cool app if worked. I agree with the author, it is much better to get a clear and to the point answer like this.
