Apple Bans Android Magazine From The App Store [AppStore]

Apple Bans Android Magazine From The App Store [AppStore]

It’s not that surprising (given previous bans), but Apple recently rejected a small Danish Android magazine app from the App Store. It’s unlikely that a lot of people would’ve bought the magazine within the first place, which makes it a strange-ish ban.

According to the CEO of Mediaprovider, a small magazine publisher based in Denmark, Apple didn’t let his magazine about Android become available inside the App Store. Consistent with him, his conversation with Apple went like this:

” So what’s the difficulty?” Dixon asked, knowing full well what the difficulty was.

” You know… your magazine,” replied the Apple rep, who identified himself only as Richard. ” It’s with regards to Android…. we will’t have that in our App Store.”

If they’d approved it, it’s likely nobody would even find out about it. But now that it’s banned, it’s almost free publicity for the magazine. [ Media Watch via Fortune ]
