I am building an app that has hundreds of pages, is there a limit? I think i could have about 400-500 pages. i have heard that if it resembles a book it will get rejected, does anyone know about this? thanks Title Comments I am building an app that has hundreds of pages, is there a limit?

Well if its to similar to a book, not necesarly related to the page number, but the app itself, that might happen. If you have something more in there, it should be ok. Cheers.

If Apple thinks its just an ebook, they're likely to say it belongs in iBooks. Make sure you have some other functionality in there. Comments There is some truth to the rejection theory though.

To write iBooks, there is an Apple-made program from the Mac App Store called 'iBooks Author'. Other ebook companies will have different programs too. However, if you want to chuck in a few extra features (for example, a map of the setting of a novel) then it you'll be fine. If you think that it is visually appealing to your audience, your apps will always be accepted. Comments If you're thinking of an e-book for iOS, I would recommend using the iBooks platform.
