Tales from the App Store: Minimal User Functionality

Apple has denied an app approval on the app store because it had “minimal user functionality”. The app was apparently an homage to the duck phone on Jersey Shore, and it quacked like a duck. Hell, I missed the whole Jersey Shore bandwagon, because, well, oompa loompas terrify me. But hey, you want to make an app that quacks, why not? There are a million fart apps out there, and I have one that makes the Super Mario Bros. jumping noise whenever you shake it. For Apple to deny it entry because they don’t think it’s functional enough seems a bit arbitrary, no? I wonder if this is the first step in demanding that apps actually, you know, do useful things from now on.
