So there's this "Wrong Button!"[0] in the app store that just plays a "Wrong" sound clip when you click it. And also it has 5 different ads on the screen, an unskippable ad on opening the app that forces open Safari to view another ad, and a "Share" function presumably so they can bombard your friends with ads too.
Now I thought this was crappy, and I wanted the "Wrong" sound clip as said by Trump, so last week for fun I made a Wrong button that has no ads, plays the actual "Wrong" clip from Trump, and costs $1 as a one-time payment.
I got rejected, because the functionality was too minimal, and they said that I should add features. Hmm. It feels like their approval process is pretty inconsistent, kinda arbitrary. I kinda want to write back to them to figure out what exactly the existing "Wrong Button!" app has that I'm missing, like is ads mandatory? But also I feel like it's not worth my time. Frustrating.

- swiley 5y agoThat sounds like it really should be a web page.
- personjerry 5y agoI see what you're getting at. For me, this was a small toy, and websites have maintenance costs while this has none, and that's the tradeoff I prefer at the moment.
- meowster 5y agoWeb pages require an Internet connection to access, an app doesn't.
- kevincox 5y agoThis isn't true. Websites can cache themselves for offline use.
