There are entire classes of applications that solve real problems that people have. They are aimed at adults, which means they might show a bit of nudity. Those applications are absolutely disallowed by the Apple nanny.
It pisses me off to no end that you can't build those applications, but this stuff isn't caught by their filter.
- cma 10y agoFacebook and Oculus are together bringing the same misfeature to Android via GearVR.
- jasoncchild 10y agoPlease, how much legit productivity software comes bundled with "a bit of nudity"
- calbear81 10y agoThere are a whole class of applications that solve REAL problems that require "a bit of nudity" that Apple disallows.
- Infinitesimus 10y agoMind giving us examples?
- CaptSpify 10y agoMedical related apps for one.
- jasoncchild 10y agoThought they existed in the App Store. Either way, I'm still perplexed at what "real problems" would be solved.
- CaptSpify 10y agoAnatomy-learning apps. Medical diagnosis apps. Just because you can't think of a legit reason to use something doesn't mean it doesn't exist.
- jasoncchild 10y agoMy point is these apps exist already, in the App Store...
- CaptSpify 10y agoDo they? Apparently I need iTunes to browse the app-store, so I can't check. If so, then how do they get around the ban?
- calbear81 10y agoLoneliness and basic human desires are a need. Porn solves a real need in the right situation.
- enjo 10y agoFinding sexual partners springs to mind. Particularly in the poly/swinger communities.
- CaptSpify 10y agoThis is my personal problem with the walled-garden approach. If you aren't 100% consistent, you start to lose credibility fast. Everyone knows Android apps are shit, so people are typically wary about what they download. Apple gives the impression that they filter out all the bad stuff, but they don't actually. This, IMO, makes their rules look hypocritical and arbitrarily enforced.
