The most outrageous rejected iPhone apps
Pundits often fuss over the seemingly arbitrary rejection of iPhone apps by Apple, but, on occasion, the rejections are well-deserved. Here are a few examples of some of the most outrageous applications ever to have received the red stamp.
Bounce Hillary Clinton, Sarah Palin, Obama, pantsless Bill Clinton, and 14 other politicians around the Oval Office on a trampoline to pop as many balloons as possible. Free speech? No, this is defamation! REJECTED.
Remember Dope Wars from your TI calculator? In this adaptation for the iPhone, you play a drug dealer who tries to make as much money as possible in 30 days. Peddling narcotics seemed a bit much for the App Store. REJECTED (but the creators released a G-rated “Candy Wars” version to fill the demand).
If you can afford this app, then it can always be there to remind you that you are indeed wealthy. Or love superfluous spending. “I Am Rich” cost $999.99; eight people managed to buy the app without a function before Apple took it down. REJECTED.
