The App Review Guidelines have been updated for compliance with courts
- james_marks 1y agoThe App Review Guidelines have been updated for compliance with a United States court decision regarding buttons, external links, and other calls to action in apps. These changes affect apps distributed on the United States storefront of the App Store, and are as follows: 3.1.1: Apps on the United States storefront are not prohibited from including buttons, external links, or other calls to action when allowing users to browse NFT collections owned by others. 3.1.1(a): On the United States storefront, there is no prohibition on an app including buttons, external links, or other calls to action, and no entitlement is required to do so. 3.1.3: The prohibition on encouraging users to use a purchasing method other than in-app purchase does not apply on the United States storefront. 3.1.3(a): The External Link Account entitlement is not required for apps on the United States storefront to include buttons, external links, or other calls to action.
- bearjaws 1y agoAbout damn time. Hopefully the next change is to correct their "bitter" implementation of allowing you to use a third party payment processor while charging you 27%.
- DecentShoes 1y agoSo they're going to continue enforcing these insane rules outside the US?
- theGeatZhopa 1y agonot in the EU ;) and over the time other countries will follow the new regulations.
- knubie 1y agoThe current App Store Guidelines don't mention anything about the EU. They only have a carve out for the US storefront, so I assume you still need to apply for a "StoreKit External Purchase Link Entitlement" in the EU as well. https://developer.apple.com/app-store/review/guidelines/#link-to-other-purchase-methods https://developer.apple.com/app-store/review/guidelines/#lin...
