I don't understand why this is linkbait? Apple is indeed rejecting apps which use Dropbox.

  No. They are blocking applications which allow you to make purchases without using Apples in app purchasing system. See the difference ?

    ...and using the Dropbox SDK is apparently violating that
    • taligent 14y ago
      THIS version does. And a NEW version doesn't. There is no specific probelem with Dropbox.

        But... there... was? Not too long ago? And it might require action by users of the Dropbox SDK? I get notifications of security updates for apache. Guess I shouldn't though, because by the time I get any it's no longer a problem with apache. Maybe I should tell my security auditor that?

        The new version is hobbled and won't even let you make an account. It is nothing more than a workaround for apple's stupidity.

    The difference is that the title will go over 80 characters and won't make it to HN, this is not Reddit. I don't get the complaints about the HN title, it's reasonably accurate given the space limitations and the forum further clarifies things. Not everything can fit in the title. Also, I see a distinct lack of suggestions of a better title, just complaints that it's link bait.

      A much more accurate title like Apple Rejects Some Apps Using (Old) Dropbox API is only 47 characters.
