  This story keeps floating around but the reality is Apple saw a $0.99 in-app purchase for a one-day pass, interpreted that as a one-day non-recurring subscription, which they don't support, but they demanded subscription billing be used instead of in app purchases. They conceded this utterly pointless problem they invented for the developer. Developers have been arguing against these for years, stupid rejections were once so common that Apple threatened against revealing them to the press in the official guidelines [1]. It's yet to be seen if they will cave on any issues like emulators, or apps mocking President Xi, or Xbox streaming, or external billing, full web browsers, transparency about their transaction fees, porn etc. [1] https://web.archive.org/web/20141226094343/https://developer.apple.com/app-store/review/guidelines/ https://web.archive.org/web/20141226094343/https://developer...

  Maybe. Their app already wasn't violating the guidelines. I suspect an Apple reviewer misunderstood and Apple's "we'll update the guidelines" is just "we'll clarify the existing policy without changing it".
