depending on complexity

content or services that
are not dependent upon
your website.
Apple’s take is 30%, and
there’s no getting around
it.

28. Apple will ask:
Who will use the app?
What is the app about?
What is the primary language?
What is the purpose of the application?
Will you charge a fee?
What color is your grandmother’s hair?

30. New and/or expanded features, revised web
application, branding change
MUCH quicker to submit and get approved
Once you’re in, you’re in.
