Apple withdraws the Finder for Airpods application from the App Store

On more than one occasion we have been able to verify how the operation of the people in charge of reviewing the applications that arrive at the App Store, usually show different criteria when accepting or rejecting applications. It is not the first time that they accept an application and later withdraw it for not complying with the established rules. The last one that has suffered the misinterpretation of the App Store supervisors is the application that we talked about a few days ago Finder for AirPods, an application that allows us to find our AirPods in a limited area, where we know we have lost it, making use of the bluetooth of the same.

As expected, Apple has withdrawn the application, an application that apparently had achieved very good reviews in the App Store, where it had an average score of 4,5 out of 5 stars. Apparently once this application has become famous, the top managers of Apple have proceeded to expel this application from the store with which we could save the money that we put a new AirPod, if unfortunately we lose it.

Once the application has been withdrawn, the developer has received an email informing him that "his application is not suitable for the App Store". The Cupertino-based company has not offered and will not offer further information in this regard. Perhaps because it does not want users to be able to recover their AirPods (if we think badly) or because the idea of ​​being able to offer this service has not left the thinking minds of its engineers. Or maybe you have the idea in the future to offer a similar service, although we don't know how you would do it.

    Sometimes details like this make me think about not sticking with Apple.
    Sometimes there is no one who understands them.

    I want to believe that it is due to putting a base price on the app that is used to find an Apple product ... Perhaps, if the business model had been different, such as placing advertising within the app and a fee for removing said advertising , it would not have been withdrawn ... but advertising itself as a utility application to find an Apple product, I do not think that those from Cupertino are amused that the end user has to pay for a third-party app that is used to search for a brand product 😛
