Why the App Store Will Reject Your App 😈 🤥 The App Store could be a perfect face-control dude at the luxury club entrance. You cannot fool him with a fake ID; acquaintances do not matter to him, even if you know the owner. But, seriously, it is the strictest platform for posting apps. The review process takes longer and is stricter than that of Google Play for example. So keep in mind the following aspects to successfully pass the verification process: 👹 Absence of User Agreement Link This link must reside both within the app and prominently displayed on the store page. If the link redirects to the company's website, the agreement must be easily accessible there, and it must work! 👺 Data Privacy Concerns Apps that interact with user data must handle it with utmost care. Any transfer of data to third parties, especially in scenarios like controlling other mobile devices or collecting health-related information, is a major red flag. 🐞 Bugs Performance issues are a definite deal-breaker. An app plagued by a sluggish interface, lengthy loading times, frequent crashes, or login failures stands little chance of passing the quality check. 📐 Crafting UI in Harmony with Guidelines The Human Interface Guidelines serve as the bible for app design on iOS. Deviating from these guidelines can lead to rejection. The UI should be intuitive, user-friendly, and visually cohesive. 👾 Justifiable Access Requests Requesting access to device features must be justified and essential for app functionality. Users should be informed transparently about why their data or device functions are required, with the option to provide or withhold consent! 👯♀️ Guarding User Data Unauthorized access to user data is strictly prohibited. Apps aiming to collect data for advertising or other purposes must seek explicit user permission. 👨💻 Adhering to Apple's Ecosystem Apple's ecosystem comes with specific rules, including restrictions on altering system functions and using FaceID recognition. 📝 Comprehensive App Description Misleading information or incomplete details can result in rejection. Every aspect of the app, from functionalities to updates, must be accurately portrayed to avoid any misinterpretation. 🔞 Age-Appropriate Content Even if an app isn't targeted at a younger audience, all content on the store page must be suitable for audiences aged 4 and above.

The Rise of PWAs📈 & Why Major App Stores Are fighting against it👿? - What are PWAs? A PWA(Progressive Web App) is a type of application software delivered through the web, built using common web technologies including HTML, CSS, and JavaScript & can be added to home screen like traditional app store application. -Advantages of PWAs 1. Cross-Platform Compatibility📱: PWAs work seamlessly across different devices and operating systems. 2. Offline Functionality🛜: They can load icons and fonts like traditional app without an internet connection using cached data. 3. No Need for App Stores🛍️: Users can install PWAs directly from the browser, bypassing app stores. 4. Automatic Updates✅: PWAs are always up-to-date without requiring manual updates as soon as website get updated 5. Reduced Development Costs💰: A single PWA can work on multiple platforms, saving time and resources for developers. -Why Google and Apple Aren’t Thrilled? 1. Revenue Loss💰: App stores generate significant revenue through app sales and in-app purchases. PWAs bypass these stores, potentially reducing this income stream. 2. Control Over Ecosystem🫳: App stores allow Google and Apple to control the quality and security of apps. PWAs, being directly accessible, can circumvent this control. 3. Data and Analytics📊: App stores provide valuable data about user behavior, preferences, and app performance. PWAs can limit the data tech giants can collect. - Apple Tried to ban PWA The European Commission alleges that Apple imposes technical restrictions through its iOS operating system, preventing developers from distributing their PWAs via the App Store if they also provide standalone versions of those same apps. These limitations could potentially stifle innovation and limit consumer choice, thereby harming both developers and consumers alike.

Here's a guide on optimizing your app for Android 13's new privacy features: Understanding the Key Changes: Photo Picker: Users can now grant granular permissions to access specific photos and videos instead of your entire media library. Notification Permission: Apps now require runtime permission to display notifications, giving users more control over what notifications they see. NEARBY_DEVICES Permission Changes: Reduced apps requiring this permission for basic functionality. Optimizing for the Photo Picker: Implement the new Photo Picker API: Transition from traditional storage access to using the Photo Picker API. This allows users to select specific photos or videos your app needs. Provide a Clear Use Case: Clearly explain why your app needs access to photos or videos within the permission request context and within your app's interface. Minimize Data Collection: Only request access to the specific photos or videos necessary for your app's functionality. Optimizing for Notification Permission: Prioritize High-Value Notifications: Focus on sending only essential and valuable notifications that enhance the user experience. Don't bombard users with irrelevant notifications. Provide Clear Notification Categories: If your app offers different notification categories, allow users to choose which ones they want to receive. Respect User Preferences: Dynamically adjust notification behavior based on user preferences. General Best Practices: Target Android 13 (API level 33): Target the latest Android 13 SDK in your app development process to ensure compatibility and access to new features. Test Thoroughly: Rigorously test your app on Android 13 devices to identify and address any compatibility issues or unexpected behaviors related to the new privacy features. Transparent Communication: Keep your users informed about how your app collects and uses data. Update your privacy policy to reflect any changes related to Android 13 permissions.

🚀 Attention Android App Developers! 📱 Are you still requesting blanket photo and video permissions for your app? It's time to switch to a more secure and user-friendly option: the Android Photo Picker! 🔒 Why Use the Android photo picker? No Permissions Needed: Unlike traditional methods that require broad access to a user’s entire media library, the Android Photo Picker allows users to select specific photos or videos to share with your app. Smoother experience: You may have noticed that many users on Android U+ are already opting to limit access to photos and videos. This means that every time they need to use a photo they need to select the photos and videos they want to use twice! By migrating to the photo picker this flow is streamlined. Access to Cloud Photos: Users can pick images not only from their device but also directly from their cloud storage (eg. Google Photos), all within the picker. This integration offers a seamless experience, ensuring that users have access to all their media, regardless of where it's stored. https://lnkd.in/emeBJVs8 Broad Compatibility: The Android photo picker is back-ported to KikKat! That means you don't have to worry about app compatibility with your custom picker anymore. The photo and video permissions are now affected by a Google Play policy. It's possible your app may not be permitted to request it in the future. Read more about the policy here: https://lnkd.in/e8kj3YPG 🛠️ Developer Benefits: By implementing the Android Photo Picker, you not only adhere to best practices in data privacy but also enhance user trust. Users are becoming increasingly conscious of how their data is handled, and by limiting permissions, your app stands out as a champion of user privacy. 💡 How to Implement: Integrating the Android Photo Picker is straightforward. Here’s a link to the official documentation with all the details you need to get started. https://lnkd.in/eX9hGwgr 📣 Call to Action: If your app still accesses media files, it’s time for a change. Upgrade to the Android Photo Picker and give your users the privacy they deserve with an enhanced user experience. Let's build a safer Android ecosystem together! 👨💻👩💻
