Native iOS Features for BT Server

Hey Guys, My app (which admittently is mainly advertising material for a charity) just got rejected. They gave me the dreaded 12.3. As I'm using BT Server, I'm having issues finding some "native iOS functionalities" that I can add to the app. I'm going to add some "Call Us" buttons to call the Charity Infoline, etc, but apart from that (as there is no quiz option for 2.0), I can't think of much. The app contains the following: ~Link to the charities "pledge" page. ~Resources, such as iPhone & computer backgrounds related to the charity, as well as access PDF (stored locally) to their brochure. ~Access to their videos. ~Links to donate (opening in Safari as per Apple's request). ~More info about the charity. I'm making a few changes, like making the videos open up in the YouTube app instead of the BT browser, but any other help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Javoooooooo, What about a map with driving directions to the charity location? Or perhaps locations of various charity events? Mark

Hey Goooooooo, I like the idea- about the office location, at least. They don't really do events, so do you think there is anything else I could add? I'll put some contacts for them (including their Twitter, Facebook blahdy blah)

Does the charity have a website we can check out to get some ideas?

Not really, because you'll judge me! Anyway, I'm not necessarily looking for specific ideas for the app, I'm just trying to brainstorm some general ideas for additional features in 2.0 :P

No judging here! What about an image gallery? Anything you could use there? Mark

Already got one... for background images... I might add some more though. Just added an app-launching Facebook link using the Facebook API URL thingo.

^^ I take that back. Anyone know how to find the FB-id for a page that has a customised URL? EDIT: *dances* I worked it out. If anyone is trying to find the page ID of a Facebook page, you go to a picture on their page, and take the numbers of the URl after the last dot. bingo!

Good to know that your app made it javooo. What did you add in the end that you think made the difference?
