I'm not going to argue that there aren't crap apps on Apple's app store, since there definitely are, but if it were easier to let apps onto the appstore, wouldn't there be even more crap apps? I doubt a loosening of restrictions would mean a massive surge of quality apps. Sure, it might mean some good apps that had been rejected or had avoided the appstore because of restrictions could get on, but the number of those quality apps would be minuscule compared to the crap app surge.
- johansch 11y agoThere's already insane amounts of crap apps in the Apple app store. What Apple should build is robust quality app discovery, filtering out the crap. What I'm seeing at the moment (seven years after the launch of the app store ) is a software architecture that appears to rely on the app store submission process being a guarantee of quality. What a joke...
