ChangeLog

* 2010-12-05 Apple rejected StonerView for iPad. I am sorry for that.

Apple said:
Thank you for submitting StonerView to the App Store.

We've reviewed your application, however, we cannot post this version
to the App Store because the features and/or content it provides were
not found to be useful or entertaining enough to be in compliance with
the App Store Review Guidelines
https://developer.apple.com/appstore/resources/approval/guidelines.html

       2.12     Apps that are not very useful or do not provide any lasting entertainment value may be rejected

We understand there are no hard and fast rules to define a quality
experience, but it can be helpful to take a look at the apps featured
on the App Store to get a feel for the type of experience our users
expect.

We encourage you to review your application concept and evaluate
whether you can incorporate features, content, or both, to enhance the
user experience. For app design information, check out the videos:
“Getting Started video: The Ingredients of Great iPhone Apps” and
“iPhone User Interface Design,” available on the iPhone Developer
Center (http://developer.apple.com/iphone), and the iPhone Human
Interface Guidelines
(http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#documentation/UserExperience/Conceptual/MobileHIG/PrinciplesAndCharacteristics/PrinciplesAndCharacteristics.html%23//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40006556-CH7-SW1);
in particular the section, “Incorporate Characteristics of Great
iPhone Applications.”

Alternatively, you may wish to consider a building a web app using
HTML5. HTML5 is the major new version of HTML and enables audio and
video to play natively in the browser without requiring proprietary
plug-ins. Using HTML5, web apps look and behave like native iPhone and
iPad applications, and using HTML5's Offline Application Cache, your
web applications work even when the device is offline. With web apps,
you have flexibility to deliver as much or as little functionality as
you desire.

To get started with iPhone or iPad web apps, please review "Getting
Started with iPhone Web Apps:"
(http://developer.apple.com/safari/library/referencelibrary/GettingStarted/GS_iPhoneWebApp/index.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40008134).

For a description of the HTML elements and attributes you can use in
Safari on iPhone, check out "Safari HTML Reference: Introduction:"
(http://developer.apple.com/safari/library/documentation/AppleApplications/Reference/SafariHTMLRef/Introduction.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40002049).

In addition, the application name contains inappropriate term, which
is not in compliance with the App Store Review Guidelines:

       3.3     Apps with descriptions not relevant to the application content and functionality will be rejected

The following content in your application name is inappropriate and
should be revised or removed: Stoner

Please feel free to reply to this email if you have any questions
about this information or would like to discuss it further.

If you wish to appeal this review with the App Review Board, visit
(http://developer.apple.com/appstore/resources/approval/contact.html)
to submit a request. Once the App Review Board has completed their
evaluation, they will contact you directly.

Best Regards,

iOS Developer Program
