Note:

Apple recently changed its iTunes App Store regulations, which can affect some no-code app makers. The regulation says, “Apps created from a commercialized template or app generation service will be rejected.” The purpose is to eliminate clones and spam apps that can be quickly created, but it may have an effect on Apps of small businesses who have not differentiated their Apps enough. Apple doesn’t disclose which apps have been rejected or ejected from the App Store, so there’s no firm evidence that this will affect those using any specific app maker, but it may. This change came unexpectedly, and we understand the potential impact this may have on your business. We are actively investigating alternative solutions and will update you as soon as we have more information.

** Please Note that we no longer submit Apps to Apple App Store, iOS Apps distribution is now done through Apple Developer Enterprise Program for which Apple charges $299 annually.
