Yes. From the developer agreement(which is more explicit than the submission guidelines), pretty much every app violates this:
2.2 You may not use the APN or Local Notifications for the purposes of advertising,
product promotion, or direct marketing of any kind (e.g., up-selling, cross-selling, etc.), including,
but not limited to, sending any messages to promote the use of Your Application or advertise the
availability of new features or versions.
- gojomo 14y agoThanks for that pointer. I'm surprise that highlighting new versions or existing features is prohibited. I've received quite a few such messages from major apps -- Zynga, Facebook, other leading games. Are they all being kicked out of the App Store?
- idunno246 14y agoI was once tasked almost word-for-word in violation of this(at a small company). I argued and quoted and the executive response was 'everyone else is doing it so we'll do it until we get caught'
- krichman 14y agoYep, just like uploading the entire contacts list. Everyone did it until they got caught.
