App Review<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Your app does not comply with:<\/p>\n

11.13: Apps that link to external mechanisms for purchases or subscriptions to be used in the app, such as a “buy” button that goes to a web site to purchase a digital book, will be rejected<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n

Piet Brauer<\/a> (via Benjamin Mayo<\/a>):<\/p>\n

Phil Schiller<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Sorry, you don’t understand. Your app was rejected 3X for the same thing, and a call was made on 3\/21. They will call you again.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n

Update (2016-04-30): Piet<\/a> Brauer<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Had a phone call with someone I could talk but I am still rejected.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

She said she understands and its ridiculous but those are the rules.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n
