The applications that have been rejected for use on the iPhone.

The App Store has grown to become the world’s largest wireless applications store, with over 65,000 applications in the last  one year. There are several applications that have been rejected on the iPhone for a variety of reasons and most of the rejections are based on the application containing quality issues or software bugs, while other rejections involve protecting consumer privacy, safeguarding children from inappropriate content and avoiding the applications that seem to degrade the core experience of the iPhone usage. Mainly, this has been due to the volume and variety of technical issues as most of the review process is concerned with quality issues and software bugs and feedback provided to the developers so that they can fix the applications for better and easy usage without any hassles to the iPhone user. The applications that are fixed and resubmitted have been approved by Apple to maintain their status quo in the market .

The following are a list of the representative applications that have been rejected as originally submitted and their current status:

• Twittelator, by Stone Design Corporation, was initially rejected because it crashed during loading, but the developer subsequently fixed the application and it has been approved subsequently.
• iLoveWiFi, by iCloseBy LLC, was rejected because it used undocumented application protocols and it has not been resubmitted in the iPhones till date.
• SlingPlayer Mobile, by Sling Media, was initially rejected because redirecting a TV signal to an iPhone using AT&T cellular network is prohibited by AT&T customer Terms of Service and Agreement. The developer subsequently fixed the application to use WiFi only and it has been approved as well.
• Lingerie Fantasy Video (Lite), by On The Go Girls, LLC, was initially rejected because it displayed nudity and explicit sexual content in it, but the developer subsequently fixed the application and it has been approved with the use of it for users over 17 years of age.
