another one making $30k/mo with pretty much the exact same format same niche same hooks just a few variations here and there the list of apps crushing it with these 2-slide posts is getting pretty damn long

Apple seems to allow some things to slide here and there. But when you put these violations on blast on X, it puts these Apple Reviewers in an awkward situation where you pretty much force their hand to rectify a situation. I’d bet it’s personally embarrassing for them to see an app they reviewed being called out for compliance publicly. Optics is important for humans. Obviously we should all try our best to adhere to guidelines and never take our accounts for granted. But if you’re building in public, you should proactively block these people who are repeatedly putting other apps on blast. And everyone celebrating their ban. These are spiritually poor people that want to see you fail, and will seize any opportunity to make it so. Even if you think you’re 100% compliant, all it takes is one accidental slip up in the hands of these type of folk.

✅success: scheduled tiktok posts on remote controlled iOS farm (nicknamed Handler Farm internally) no shadowbans, pushed to US traffic 🔥 all done remotely what we did: > duped a post with handler > scheduled it for 12 am in the night > pipeline: appium, wda, iOS actions result: - 983 views (nowhere close to <300 shadowban territory) - 94% USA, 1.4% UK we wanted to test if tiktok detected the device being controlled through a developer access + if scheduling would work 👉🏽 "scheduling" test because all API schedulers are flagged and insta-shadowbanned (no matter what the founders of those schedulers tell you about posting direct to draft or other secret hacks etc) with this we're getting closer to releasing an OPEN SOURCE version... we will put it up the link on gethandler.ai and anyone can pull it from git and use it free also tagging my cracked engineer who's been working with me on cranking this out: @just_array0111 expect a post next week on it 🫡

This app does $100k/month and every screen of its onboarding breaks a different Apple rule. I went through the Prayer Lock onboarding and I get why one article called it a masterclass. It asked me to rate the app TWICE before I’d done anything. The paywall says FREE in giant letters with “no payment now”. The $39.99/yr you’re actually signing up for is the smallest text on the screen. I declined and got an exit offer: $0.76/week, the real charge is nowhere on that screen. And there’s a discount countdown sitting in my dynamic island and on my lock screen as I write this 😭 Every one of these converts, that's exactly the problem. The devs following the rules are the ones losing.
