Ask HN: is tester-error in the AppStore review process acceptable?
OSX AppStore review times are through the roof: 26 days just to begin testing. Today, we received a rejection on our app. The tester included a screenshot of the "error" and steps to "replicate." The "steps" were to log in to Facebook in our app, and the "error" was a screenshot of the app telling him he entered the wrong password. Obviously, the ludicrous AppStore policies have been the topic of much discussion. Legally, there's nothing developers can do but suck it up. Yet, I have to wonder: can this not be construed, in some form, of infringing upon a company's ability to do business, when arbitrary mistakes by Apple can cost other companies large sums of money (in the form of time)? What do you think? Is it even worth getting worked up about?
