> (b) Also avoid piling on to a category that is already saturated; the App Store has enough fart, burp, flashlight, fortune telling, dating, drinking games, and Kama Sutra apps, etc. already. We will reject these apps unless they provide a unique, high-quality experience. Spamming the store may lead to your removal from the Apple Developer Program.
True story. I sub contracted with another agency for a new startup and we wanted to have a pre-release for a small audience and the app was outright rejected by Apple for this same reason. My final milestone for said agency was tied to releasing the app to the store… still salty (and wiser) about that.
I’d love to see that. I’ve never heard of denial for that reason, and the App Store is certainly crowded in every category.
