Users want to know why they were even considered
Nearly 25 billion apps have been downloaded worldwide, and while many of them have been good, some of them have flummoxed users. A lot of these apps have already banned or put into question by the company, but users want to know why they were ever even considered.
1. Baby Shaker:
The purpose of the game is as horrible as the name. The app turns the name. The app turns the iPhone motion sensors into a way for the player to torture and silence as animated crying infant on the screen. Apple has pulled it from the store.
2. Smuggle Truck:
This controversial game allows users to drive a truck full of immigrants through the desert. Many found the game to be racist and Apple banned the app.
3. I Am Rich:
This app, basically a fancy screensaver, cost USD 999.99. Once bought, the app makes a glowing red gem appear on the phone screen, followed by the words, ‘I Am Rich’. Eight people bought this no-purpose app before removal.
4. Gay Cure:
This now banned app grossly attempts to help turn gay people straight through ‘biblical teaching’. The insulting app caused 150,000 people to sign a petition asking the company to ban it, and it was done.
5. Beauty Meter:
Originally intended for users to rate the face, body, and cloths of those who uploaded photographs, this free app encouraged superficiality. There was no way to prevent nudity. When a partially nude image of a under 15-year-old iPhone user turned up on the app, iTune pulled the plug.
6. iFart:
This app is useless. It asks for USD one simply to make fart noises.
7. Hold On!:
The concept of this ‘game’ is to press a button in the middle of the screen so that phone can record how long you have been holding it.
8. iNap@work:
This app manages not only to promote laziness, but to also put your career in danger. It helps workers get away with taking a little snooze on the job by playing fake sound effects of typing, stapling, and other office activities.
9. ChickOrDude:
This app ranks you on a gender scale from 0 to 100. All you have to do is scan a photo of yourself and upload it to the app and it determines how feminine or masculine you look.
