iOS app with webview that opens a mobile friendly website

Hi all,

Recently there has been some change in the wording of App Store Review Guidelines, previously it stated:

2.7 Apps that download code in any way or form will be rejected


Which I interpreted as iOS apps are not allowed to download js/css/html files from the server, hence an iOS app consisting of a webview that opens a mobile webapp url and adds some native features (push notifications) will be rejected.


In the current text of App Store Review Guidelines, the previous point 2.7 is not included, and instead there is:


2.5.2 Apps should be self-contained in their bundles, and may not read or write data outside the designated container area, nor may they download, install, or execute code, including other iOS, watchOS, macOS, or tvOS apps.


The webapp that we intend to package as an application from webview, is fully mobile optimized and mobile friendly does not contain any external links so that user can not possibly navigate to other webistes from within the application.

Besides the webapp provided functionality push notifications are added into application.


Please advise if you know cases with iOS apps that open a mobile webapp url were accepted or rejected by Apple review team,

or if you think I missed some parts of the new review guidelines by which this kind of apps will be rejected.


Thanks in Advance
