Sorry, but "others got away with it" is not a good argument. I would personally view your software as invasive malware, no matter how good your intentions may be. The right course of action here is to report all similar apps to Apple and have them taken down as well.
- FunHearing3443 5y agoSo by your logic are you saying it'd be immoral for someone to provide an app or program that a user _specifically wants_ that tracks their device activity and shares it with a designated recipient? No one is forcing anybody to install this app, many apps like this exist on a variety of ecosystems and there are many many many testimonies of these types of apps helping people accomplish their accountability goals. How can something you explicitly agree to and want be considered 'invasive malware'?
- iamtheworstdev 5y agoIt's a perfectly valid argument. Apple always says their rules are for everyone and applied equally. They testify to this in court. And yet, it doesn't seem to be the case here.
- throw10920 5y ago> I would personally view your software as invasive malware Your view is objectively incorrect. Something cannot be "malware" if it is intentionally installed for a purpose beneficial to the installer, doesn't contain hidden anti-features, or doesn't make itself intentionally hard to uninstall (modulo the obvious cases where that's a feature, such as find-my-stolen-device tools, and this one).
