Siri?2% Guideline 2.9: Apps that are "beta", "demo", "trial", or "test" versions will be rejected
Bit's a feature and not an app right?

And now paypal has broken it again by not allowing 2 step authentication so anyone who uses that can't use the app. So all this apple rejects apps and checks them to ensure a good user experience is ********.
There's a big difference between Apple bugs which typically affect only a small portion of a very large user base, and the bugs Apple is rejecting apps for which are apparent from the first moment you open an app. When you have 500 million users some of them are going to find bugs.They should put it to good use it on their own apps then!
Honestly they still have bugs in their own software that need fixing, look at some of the threads regarding Mail on ASC.
I for one appreciate most of the reasons, except for the exclusion of apps like Pathfinder...

Yeah that's great and all, but let's be honest... If you look carefully in the dark corners of the Appstore you can find a huge amount of ****. Such as countless Flappy Bird knock-offs, etc.

The lack of demos in the app store is the reason I bought so little from it. I like to try before I buy. Personally I think its a really bizarre rule to have. The app store should have a 'trial' or 'demo' button for developers who want to let users try their apps.
When will apple begin accepting submissions for iOS 8 apps ?
a few days after the event right?
I plan to be submitting my first 2 apps then! and I am really excited
Less than a month ago PayPal broke there app entirely if you were using the 12hr clock (was perfect with the 24hr clock). Couldn't login using a pin or password. I had to revert to an old version in iTunes that worked perfectly.
Took two more updates to correct the issue.
How do these very broken apps pass checks, not one but twice within two weeks.
Even Apples countdown timer has this bug on my 5, 5s and Mini Retina (iOS 7.1.2). Set the time to a 12hr clock and the timer reads as 00:00 on the locks screen, set the clock to 24hrs and the lock screen countdown works fine.
Even Apples own software has very obvious bugs that I really don't know how it passed testing. Actually worked perfectly on the original release of iOS 7. It broke after the first update and it's never worked properly since.
I really wish Apple would allow you to revert to a previous version of an app, when you try to install it you could have a simple list of why you are reverting, if Apple get a lot of the same feedback then they could pull the broken app quickly or force the developer to revert to an older version while it gets fixed.

There are about 50 apps in the App Store that claim to be a Cydia tweak.
I've downloaded apps before which are bugged to the point of being virtually unusuable.
I would like to see ...
Or even a few anecdotes of apps that have been rejected before and how much they had to add or change to gain admittance.

App submissions for apps built against iOS 8 should start to be accepted once the GM build is released to developers so that apps being submitted have been built against the anticipated release version. I would be extremely surprised if the iOS 8 / XCode 6 GMs aren't made available immediately following the iOS 8 / iPhone 6 event next Tuesday.
They need to list "Just plain crappiness".
If your App looks like it was cobbled together in a few days, or you're trying to get your first practice App into the store to impress your friends, please brace yourself for rejection. We have lots of serious developers who don't want their quality Apps to be surrounded by amateur hour. (source)
With hundreds of app submissions per hour, there's only time for a limited number of spot checks for each rule/guideline.
Bleh - I want a Finder alternative but I tried PathFinder and it was garbage. (For the record, I have tried all existing shells/file explorers for OS X and Windows and hate them all. I also hate everything I've tried on Linux. Finder is by far the best of them all, but I still envision something so much better. I started writing my own but I don't think I'll ever have the time to finish it...)
We'll they do have this:
Seems pretty close.
What would you want to see in a finder alternative that is lacking from the others? Genuinely interested.
