Apple does not allow bittorrent software on the App Store

A special iPhone application for remote control of the popular Bittorrent Transmission client was rejected to be placed on the Apple App Store. Apple substantiated its rejection to the program developer by saying that this type of software is often used for copyright infringement, so the company cannot allow the publication of this application on the App Store.

Drivetrain is the name of the software created for controlling the cross-platform bittorrent by the Transmission client via the Internet. The creator of the program Maza Digital says that Drivetrain provides all the details of the web interface in the native iPhone environment, which is very convenient.

This category of software is often used to violate the rights of third parties. Based on this, we do not accept such programs for placement on the App Store.

Not only is any bittorrent client absolutely legal (copyrights are violated by people and not by programs), but Drivetrain is even more so - after all, this is just a shell for remote control of this client.
