My app is rejected ! / 10.6

Hi, A Week ago, my app went into "review", but became rejected by Apple for the following reason: 10.6: Apple and our customers place a high value on simple, refined, creative, well thought through interfaces. They take more work but are worth it. Apple sets a high bar. If your user interface is complex or less than very good it may be rejected We found the user interface of your app is not of sufficient quality to be appropriate for the App Store. Apps that provide a poor user experience are not in compliance with the App Store Review Guidelines. Specifically, we noticed the app lacks iOS integration and features. Please evaluate whether you can make the necessary revisions to improve the user experience of your app. Alternatively, you may wish to consider 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 apps, and using HTML5's Offline Application Cache, your web apps work even when the device is offline. With web apps, you have flexibility to deliver as much or as little functionality as you desire. If you wish to build an HTML5 web app, you can do so and distribute it directly from your web site. It is not appropriate to submit an HTML5 web app to the App Store. To get started with iPhone or iPad web apps, please review Getting Started with iPhone Web Apps. For a description of the HTML elements and attributes you can use in Safari on iPhone, check out Safari HTML Reference: Introduction. I don't know why it is rejected. So I am just using standard UI controls. Can anyone please give me some advise? Here are some screenshots: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7969904/Schermafbeelding%202012-05-13%20om%2012.48.14.png http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7969904/Schermafbeelding%202012-05-13%20om%2013.10.32.png http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7969904/Schermafbeelding%202012-05-13%20om%2012.48.19.png http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7969904/Schermafbeelding%202012-05-13%20om%2012.48.22.png http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7969904/Schermafbeelding%202012-05-13%20om%2012.48.25.png http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7969904/Schermafbeelding%202012-05-13%20om%2012.48.54.png http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7969904/Schermafbeelding%202012-05-13%20om%2012.49.01.png http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7969904/Schermafbeelding%202012-05-13%20om%2013.12.07.png http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7969904/Schermafbeelding%202012-05-13%20om%2013.09.26.png Thanks.

A common rejection. Many threads about it. To summarize: -Wait and submit again, hoping to get a different reviewer -Add a quiz -Add some kind of location map with driving directions -Add photo uploader These are some of the suggested strategies for getting past the rejection. Good luck

Your app has a good style so it depends the reviewer, and for me wait and change some icon / color was enough. To add some location map it´s an interesting option to improve your app. Luck!!! and remember to be patiente with apple!!!

Yep, I have to agree with both @Stobe and @guisante. You could also protest the rejection and have them tell you exactly what is lacking. It looks to me like you have integrated a few iOS features! Mark

i am working on the ideas of @stobe , @guisante I was rejected for 12.3 but when i asked for clarification - they gave three a) Round Icons ( Solution - to make it square and bigger ) b) 10.6 c) RSS feed / Web Aggregates My First version - had a Quiz.. So my second version after rejection will have 1) Image Emailer 2) few HTML content Will update once I getthrough...

Hello! I have the same problem with my application (10.6) ... It has been rejected many times. I've made several improvements suggested by the App Review Team, but unfortunately returned today to reject. I ask you to help solve my problem. You can see screenshots at: http://www.inforneris.com/screens/screenshots.html Thank you! Emanuel

can any one please tell me solution for iPhone app is rejected due to 10.6 following is reason which they reply.!!: 10.6 We also found the user interface of your app is not of sufficient quality to be appropriate for the App Store. Apps that provide a poor user experience are not in compliance with the App Store Review Guidelines. Specifically, we noticed your app: - did not integrate with app content and/or iOS features Please evaluate whether you can make the necessary revisions to improve the user experience of your app. Keep in mind that Apple and Apple customers place a high value - and have high standards - on the user interface and the experience an app provides. Apps should be engaging and exciting, enabling users to do something they couldn't do before; or to do something in a way they couldn't do before or better than they could do it before. And apps should be specific to the iOS platform to take the fullest advantage of iOS in delivering a robust user experience. following is link of screen shots; http://s1262.photobucket.com/albums/ii607/wasimalpha/ please help me..1!!
