September. Emptying apple orchard
This is not a metaphor. The number of applications in the Apple store has decreased dramatically. And this story began on September 1.
On this hot day, Apple received a letter, which I habitually sent in the trash. And in vain. Because it was written there (the author's spelling is changed):
And on Monday, September 12, Apple realized the threat - I received a formidable message:
Such messages came 14 pieces at a time. A letter to the software product.
Mail.ru even got worried and cautiously asked - is it spam? Not.
I checked - the programs that the corporation chose to destroy, have not really been updated since 2010. But not in the date of the case - for example, Apple did not touch a couple of my older applications. Apparently, the Corporation decided to get rid of applications that no one has downloaded in the last 12 months (empirical speculation).
Get upset? In no case! To hammer a bolt? Bolt better take care. Unclaimed paid apps are your diamond reserve fund.
Nobody downloads new apps. Even for free. They are not visible as layers of dust in hidden Markov models. But the old, stale, paid application can download up to 1000 people a day, if it is suddenly declared free.
So I did - I chose one of the games - China Towers - and instead of it, under version 2.0 I used completely different fun (my old pipeline is 91 years old). September 14th was it? Yes, exactly 14, hot day +30. I must say that when I screwed Admod ads to the application, Google perfectly saw the banned application China Towers. With Chartboost, too, everything went fine.
On September 17, the application was reviewed and approved. Woo-lia, I declared it free and got a nice splash of downloads and $ 30 ringing brilliant dollars fell into my pocket.
Today did the same with the next game from the list of deleted. Also a pipeline, but with cats. While testing the game, I made an impassable level and dug myself into it, like a woodpecker, for 12 hours in a row hoping to get through. I know that it is impossible, but I believe ... Strange people, these people ... I will report on the results of the second experiment as they are approved.
See you guys.

Dear developer!
We do not pay you money for creating programs for iOS. Moreover, we take money from you ($ 20 million per year) for you to develop applications for our store.
')
Nevertheless, by September 1, 2016, the number of applications in our store exceeded 2 million. This is too much - users are unhappy, the shelves are crammed. We decided to throw away all the applications that in our opinion were corrupted.
You have 2 weeks to refresh your sturgeon.
Respectfully,
Tim Cook
