The iOS Developer’s Guide To Passing App Review

App Review, Appy Happs Blog, Appy Happs Directory, Appy Happs Partners, Uncategorized

The iOS Developer’s Guide To Passing App Review

 

If you’re a good iOS developer, you know the art and the importance of working well with App Review. Occurring towards the end of every development cycle, this is largely useless (not to mention infuriating) yet essential process that every developer (and their project) has to go through.

Needless to say, being rejected at this stage is very costly and extremely counterproductive, especially since the developer themselves have no say in the process. That being said, there are some things developers can check, which can greatly reduce, if not eliminate rejections.

Read All Guidelines for the App Review

Thanks to Apple’s transparent policy, app rejections generally explain the reason why a certain app was rejected, complete with the guideline(s) violated by the app. The good news here is that you can read almost all of these guidelines in the App Store Review Guidelines, which is a 9000-word write-up explaining App Store dos and don’ts. Although it can get boring trying to read them, they will be useful in the long run.

Bear in mind, though, that many of these guidelines tend to change frequently, You can keep track of these changes with the help of the App Store Review Guidelines History, which shows both the dates-of change and the exact place where a particular guidelines has changed.

It is also good practice to check out the Paid Applications Agreement and the iOS Developer Program information. Both contain useful information and are available on iTunes Connect.

Take note of common app rejections

A great way to learn how to not get rejected is studying the reasons for current rejections. One great Apple-based resource to see App Review rejection is the Common App Rejections tracker, which provides common reasons as well as examples of app rejection.

You can also try the Twitter page of App Review Watch, which searches stories from all over iOS Twitter and talks about rejections that are unfair or otherwise peculiar.

Be consistent with your submissions

No matter how smart, innovative or unique your app may be, you must always keep in mind that you will need to pass the App Review to get your app on the app store. It is only paramount, therefore, that you do everything while keeping the App Store in mind.

A great way to avoid getting your app rejected is to submit early and submit multiple times. For instance, you can try submitting your build the moment you see that it can be released.

This helps in more ways than one – first, you can use the extra time to do some in-house testing, and if you do encounter any issues, can withdraw your submission. In the event that your app passes App Review, you’ll get an early release, while being free to make improvement as per your own time!

Accept your app’s rejection and learn from it

Let’s face it – there will be a time when your release will get rejected. And it will hurt (what with all that money and effort you’ve put into it). That being said, if you get over the hurt and actually try and find why your app got rejected in the first place, you’ll be able to learn a lot.

First up, you’ll be able to see the reason in the App Review Guidelines, from where you can learn about the guideline(s) that you have violated.

Next, search and make a note of what other developers are doing to deal with their rejection. This will give you an insight into how you can redeem your app by simply fixing the problem.

Last but not the least, you can give in to the reviewer’s point-of-view and make the relevant change. While this may need a little pride-swallowing (as you’re allowing a totally unknown person to dictate a change), it might just get your app on market a little sooner.

That being said, if you find that the reviewer’s demands are in fact unreasonable or poorly-informed, you must not tolerate those.

Send a rebuttal

Lucky for you, a rejection is not the end of the road. If your app has been rejected, you will have the option to send the reviewer a message. It may be a simple case of the reviewer misunderstanding your app, or misinterpreting a guideline, and an honest explanation may just clear the problem altogether!

That being said, it may also be that the reviewer is unwilling to see things from your point-of-view. In such cases, it is pretty much pointless to send them a message.

Fix and app and Re-submit

If you have tried all of the above and found yourself with no other option, you can fix and problem and re-submit, and simply hope that you find a new reviewer.

This isn’t the most recommended route though, since new reviewer will probably have access to your earlier rejections and may just get biased by those.

 

Unnecessary and irritating as it is, the App Review process is here to stay. The only silver lining here is that it has become faster in recent years. The best and wisest thing to do, therefore, is to invest some extra time and energy in understanding the process.

 

Planning To Leave WhatsApp? Try These!

Appy Happs Blog, Appy Happs Directory, Appy Happs Partners, Lifestyle Apps, Uncategorized

Planning To Leave WhatsApp? Try These!

There can be many reasons why someone would want to leave WhatsApp. Maybe you want to drop instant messaging. Maybe you just don’t want Whatsapp anymore. Or you may want to do away with Whatsapp due to privacy concerns, now that the app has been bought by Facebook.

In you’re among the many who want to keep instant messaging but don’t want to have anything to do with Whatsapp, don’t fret. There are several new and established (not to mention free) alternatives out there for you. Not only do they offer features similar to Whatsapp, they have some nice quirks of their own which may be the one extra thing you were looking for!

Here are four great choices for replacing Whatsapp:

VIBER

Launched four months after Whatsapp (December 2010, to be precise), Viber is one the best option if you aim to switch to a messaging platform with a large user base – chances of your existing contacts being on this platform already are very high! This app has every feature that Whatsapp, with the added feature of being able to use your cellular data to make audio calls to anyone in your contact list. Along with cool features like group chatting and cool stickers, the app also has a feature that allows you to seamlessly move from a text conversation to a phone call on the same screen, which can really come in handy with friends and acquaintances living out of the country.

Who owns it? Viber is owned by Rakuten, the Japanese e-commerce giant.

Users: Over 100 million monthly active users

VIBER

LINE

One of the few messaging services that actually gained popularity in Asia, LINE was a household name in Asia when it was introduced in Europe. Not only is this messenger app one of the more efficient one, it is also one of the better-looking (and lesser-congested) ones as well. The app has a seemingly never-ending list of features (which keep increasing with every update). Features include audio calls, app-exclusive games, blog services, stickers, and companion apps, among others. While the heavy emphasis on manga and cute cartoons may be discouraging for some sections of the European audience, the app in general has favorable customer reviews from all over the globe. The app’s third-party IP feature also makes it an ideal messaging platform looking to escape parental supervision.

Who owns it? LINE is owned by Naver, a South Korean search giant

Users: Over 300 million monthly active user

LINE

SKYPE

The most popular app for video-conferencing via desktop and mobile also has an instant messaging feature that can be used as a replacement to Whatsapp. It is only an unfortunate coincidence that the app, which is easily available on all platforms has a lower preference rate when it comes to text messaging.

The app has a lot of features, complete with stickers, emojis and GIFs. What really brings the app down, however, is its association with paid calls for a service that is increasing becoming more and more free. And while it has the largest database, people are generally apprehensive of sharing their personal contact info (such as emails and usernames), as compared to apps which use mobile numbers.

Who owns it? After having changed ownership several times, Skype is now owned by Microsoft.

Users: As of 2010, Skype has 663 million registered users, with 280 million monthly active users.

SKYPE

TELEGRAM

Guessing by the kind of popularity this app is gaining, Telegram may soon become WhatsApp’s equal (or at least, the next best thing). The app is high-speed, which is a feature it really prides on. Armed with security encryption and a Snapchat-like auto-destroy messages feature, Telegram definitely poses as a safer choice to most.

That being said, Telegram lacks some of the added features like audio clip messaging and stickers. It is, however, compensated by the 1GB capacity file transfer ability. The interface too, though simple and minimalistic, is quite tasteful and contemporary.

Who owns it? Russian social network giant VK owns Telegram

Users: The app has reportedly received over 5 million signups during the recent WhatsApp downtime

Negotiating Business in Another State With Your L.L.C.

Appy Happs Blog, Appy Happs Directory, Appy Happs Partners, Sponsored Blog, Uncategorized

 

Numerous LLC owners are amazed to discover that forming their LLC is just the start of the legal journey which there are continuously brand-new laws to abide by, licenses to acquire, and so on. In this article, we will talk about a few of the important things you have to do from a legal viewpoint to negotiate beyond the state where your LLC business formation and registration occurred.

If that genuine residential or commercial property produces earnings (is leased out; the LLC offers another party the right to collect lumber on it for a charge; any other business contracts and so on), then it is extremely most likely that the LLC will be thought about to be a negotiating company in South Carolina. Once again, the absence of a clear meaning of “negotiating” leaves a lot of gray spaces in which an LLC might be at threat of breaking laws with regard to foreign LLCs negotiating in a state. As an example, a lot of states will consider a foreign LLC to be negotiating in the state if the LLC has a physical location in the state and is producing some sort of company earnings there.

Essentially, it is a notification filing informing the state that the foreign LLC was developed somewhere else however plans to do service in the state. The charge is $110.00 and a specific type of certificate from the LLC’s house state should accompany the application (this is essentially a file from the LLC’s house state controlling company informing the world that the LLC has actually paid all of it charges, is validly formed, and so on). While getting this business application submitted and authorized in South Carolina permits a foreign LLC to negotiate service constantly (presuming the LLC remains validly formed in its house state), the majority of states will need a yearly cost in order to keep the “Certificate of Authority” in location; so this included cost requirements to consider when budgeting for the out-of-state organization expenditures. If you need advise for any part o this process you can contact McGrath & Spielberger, PLLC; they also specialize in mortgage and foreclosure law services.

In addition to acquiring a “Certificate of Authority” or comparable registration, all other state and regional licensing requirements need to be abided by as if the foreign LLC resembled other LLC’s or companies in the state. As an example, if a foreign LLC desires to offer items from a South Carolina area, it would require to sign up for a retail license (sales tax license) from the South Carolina Department of Income (even if the foreign LLC has a sales tax license in its house state) and acquire any regional service authorizations or licenses needed by the county, city or town in which the foreign LLC is offering its products.

In conclusion, it is important that LLCs not just make sure that they remain in compliance with their house state’s laws however likewise those of other state where it chooses to “negotiate”.
