Seeking Advice for App Store Approval Strategy for an App with Limited Features
Hello fellow developers, I am seeking advice on the best strategy to obtain App Store approval for our app, which interfaces with a service that we provide through our website. Here’s a brief overview of our situation: Background: • Service Offered: We sell digital business cards that can be customized on our website. We offer both individual and enterprise subscriptions. • Website Functionality: Users can design and set up their digital cards through our website. The full suite of features for designing and managing these cards is available only on the website. • App Functionality: • Current Features: The app currently allows users to log in, view their digital card, and link any physical card they have purchased from us. • No Design Features: The app does not include the functionality to design or extensively manage the digital cards. Challenge: We aim to keep the app straightforward and focused on viewing and minor management, while more complex interactions like designing the card and purchasing subscriptions are handled through our website. Questions: 1. App Store Compliance: Given that we handle sales of digital services (subscriptions) through our website and not through the app, how can we ensure compliance with Apple’s guidelines? Specifically, the app does not facilitate any in-app purchases. 2. App Functionality: Is the limited functionality of our app (primarily viewing and linking cards) sufficient for App Store approval, considering that more complex functionalities are web-based? 3. Strategies for Approval: Are there specific strategies or wording we should use when submitting our app for review to clarify our business model and app functionality without violating Apple’s guidelines? I appreciate any insights or experiences you could share that would help navigate the App Store review process effectively. Thank you in advance for your time and help!
