Except Apple's approval process really wouldn't have prevented this. Most iPhone apps phone home without almost any user being the wiser. Who knows what most iPhone IM apps or apps like 1Password (basically any app that allows the user to put in any type of freeform information) are doing behind the scenes.
- Retric 17y agoThey would not have approved an app that was pretending to be written by a different company.
- city41 17y agoNo, but let's pretend a master password app silently sends the password info back home periodically. Apple's process would let an app like that through. It'd be pretty stupid for a developer to do this (I even think it's stupid for an Android dev to do this), as they'd certainly get caught. But Apple's submission process wouldn't be what caught them.
