For some time to be part and unfortunately for many users, lMost games have adopted the Fremium mode, a mode that allows you to download the game completely free but full of in-app purchases, purchases that are sometimes necessary to start playing, with many users who fall into this trap attracted by being available for download in a free. But it is not the only method that developers use to attract user interest. Some choose to include the words free or gratuitous in the title of the game or in the icon of the application or game, a possibility that has its days numbered.
Apple has always paid special attention to developers without which it would not be the gigantic company it has becomeBut he also doesn't want them to get on the hump and do whatever they want. The last measure that the company has taken is to reject all applications that include the word free, free in both the name and the icon, the screenshots or the preview, forcing the developer to remove it completely if they want their application to be available on the App Store.
Automatically, iTunes Connect is rejecting all these kinds of new apps and soon it will begin to do so with the applications that are already available in the Apple application store for mobile devices. All applications that have been rejected are receiving the following message:
Your app name, icon, screenshots, or previews displayed in the App Store include references to your app's price, which are not considered part of the metadata. Remove all price references from the app name, icon, screenshots claiming the app is free or offering a discount. If you want to display that information, you must do so in the application description.
Currently some applications of Big developers like Disney or Google, to give a few examples, offer this type of information but it seems that this measure does not affect them, at least for the moment. Where's My Water? Free or Google Drive include the words free and free in the title of the application. Presumably, or should be so, that in the next reviews, the guys from Cupertino will begin to force the developer community to modify if or if the title of the applications that currently contradict this new measure.
The arrival of iOS 10 and its subsequent updates It has been important news in the App Store. The latest novelty comes from the hand of iOS 10.3 and allows, finally, developers to answer the criticism that their games or applications receive, leaving the total defenselessness in which they were up to now.
