Hi all.
I made a iPhone camera app. It works well as a stand-alone app.
My camera app is used specially for sports game. It should be installed at a place where it is hard to frequently access, like at the tip of a long pole or at the top of the wall.
Thus, I made another iPad program, which is used to monitor the camera app's screen and also control the app and also download the recorded frames from iPhone app.
I submitted iPad app and it was rejected.
The rejection reason was
Guideline 4.2.3 - Design - Minimum Functionality
We were required to install *** (my iPhone camera app) before we could use your app. Apps should be able to run on launch, without requiring additional apps to be installed.
How can a controller app work without an additional app? It is like a car remote key has its own functionality. Actually a car remote key is useless without a car itself.
Is there anyone who experienced similar tragedy?
Then please advise me what I have to do.
I may add some stand-alone feature in the iPad controller app. But it may mislead both the users and app store reviewers. Also it will make the app worse. I am really reluctant to do that.
