2.11: Apps that duplicate apps already in the App Store may be rejected, particularly if there are many of them, such as fart, burp, flashlight, and Kama Sutra apps

What was your app?

Desert Diva · 02-03-2012, 09:56 PM

It was a sex app.....click on the day...and it spins the dice to choose your sex position....it was quite fun really..
anyhow, they didn't review it properly...cos if they had clicked on every day of the year they would have found some fun surprises on valentines, christmas etc....

Replay to them and explain the extra functionatly in your app

Desert Diva · 02-04-2012, 04:57 AM

I just changed some of the description to include that there are special days, and re-submitted...who knows? I may get a kinder reviewer......I know it is cheezy app stuff, but I actually bothered...and getting the timing right on the stupid dice nearly did my head in, never mind the sprite sheet....GRRRRRRRRRRRRR I only wanted 99c from a few people....

Just not fair that they accept such rubbish and mine was semi-educational.

We found that your app duplicates the content and functionality of apps currently available on the App Store.

Apps that simply duplicate content and/or functionality create clutter, diminish the overall experience for the end user, and reduce the ability of developers to market their applications. This is not in compliance with the App Store Review Guidelines.

The Kama Sutra content can be educational and can serve as a helpful reference. But in spite of that, and even if the imagery you've incorporated is not graphic or erotic in nature, we simply have enough Kama Sutra apps in the App Store.

We encourage you to review your app concept and evaluate whether you can incorporate different content and features that are in compliance with the Guidelines.

Sorry to hear that.
For the heck of it, maybe you can try copy the Temple Jump screenshot,
copy their description, and also copy their icon and change some colors
and resubmit. I SWEAR TO GOD ITS GONNA BE APPROVED!!!!

Thanks Roco
I just have to wonder how the temple app got through and mine didn't.
I have to admit that I have not perused the sex apps, it is not a habit of mine, so when I made mine it was a bit 'chancy'....

Add some stuff to it. Put in sections on exercises and/or a diet that will promote a healthy sex life. (Fun & education!)

I don't mean to be sexist but I'm kinda shocked that a woman from the middle east made a sex app.

Promo Dispenser · 02-04-2012, 09:02 PM

Apparently they are not all living in caves, like the media tries to make us believe

This is what suppression does to people

Emirates' constitution guarantees free speech as far as I know.

well at least formally and at least in English translation it says:

Article 30: "Freedom of opinion and expressing it verbally, in writing or by other means of expression shall be guaranteed within the limits of law."

what are these "limits of law" mean it doesn't say though...
