This is incorrect. They are rejecting apps that mention other mobile platforms. Pebble is not a mobile platform, it's a smart watch platform. Them reclassifying it seems awfully timely.
This makes the user experience of pebble watch owners worse as they won't be able to search for applications that support Pebble anymore; they'll have to find them elsewhere. Not being able to discover applications in an app store is just stupid.

- BinaryIdiot 12y agoIf we want to be pedantic...I don't think so. Mobile implies a device that is connected to the world, standalone and is small / handheld; smart watches are only accessories for mobile devices that can't stand on their own. I would argue they're different but the word mobile can be interpreted various ways. It would be nice for Apple to be more explicit in their terms.
