Clip Rejected via Notarization

Riley Testut:

The latest Clip update has been stuck in Notarization for 3 days now. I swear if Apple announces a clipboard manager at WWDC…

[…]

Update: it was rejected because the keyboard extension doesn’t do anything if Full Access isn’t enabled 🙄

Even though the previous submissions also didn’t do anything without Full Access enabled…

Recall that iOS’s notarization for apps outside the App Store has a human review component, but that Apple said it would be about “security and privacy and to maintain device integrity.” Apple has been harassing Testut’s apps ever since the debut of App Marketplaces, last year rejecting Clip with a false statement about how it uses push notifications.

Pierre Tzt:

How is it the job of notarization to give this kind of feedback? The abuse of power is insane here.

Simon B. Støvring:

I thought this was the kind of rejection third-party app stores would avoid 😞
