iPhone Application Development as Per Apple’s Guidelines for iTunes Acceptance
One question to iPhone app developer, especially those who develop applications for themselves, why develop iPhone applications? Your answer would probably be to sell it on iTunes to make some extra money. While your idea of earning some extra money is good and profitable there are a few things you need to know even before you start iPhone
application development. Apple iTunes has a lengthy process for application submission and its listing. First you need to submit your application to them, than their team of experts will check it thoroughly and decide whether to list or not to list it on the site. This strict process ensures that only few of them get listed.
If your application does not get listed then there is no way you benefit from it. Hence it is important for an app programmer to develop it as per the application guidelines laid down by Apple iTunes. Here are a few things you need to check during the iPhone application development process to ensure that the application is developed as per the iTunes guidelines and is easily accepted for listing: iPhone icons: Undoubtedly you will list your iPhone application or game through an icon, there is no mention of the specific icon diameters in the Human Interface Guidelines (HIG), however it rejects them if they do not match the 57x57 ones as seen on the iPhone. Unique Buttons: Often Apple allows you to use its icons for similar functions, however this is often uncertain, nothing can be said as to when it will not allow you to use its standard icons. Thus it is always better to create your own images for buttons on the app. API violation: Use of private APIs is not allowed, whatever the case may me you cannot use them. Even if you try and hide them for the naked eyes Apple code scanner is sure to find it. One popover: iPhone app development guidelines mention clearly that only one single popover should be shown at a time. Be prepared to face the rejection if you plan to use popover within popover. Make sense: Anything that does not make sense in the application be it the visuals displaying a cracked screen or just any other error, iTunes will not accept it. So each iPhone app developer should make sure to make sense. Often you might have faced a situation where even the best of the applications gets rejected, after going through this post now you should be able to guess where you made a mistake.
