Yesterday, after a period of engagement with the App Review Team from Apple, they informed us that TextExpander’s use of Reminders for shared snippet data storage is not an intended use of Reminders and will no longer be accepted. TextExpander touch will not clear review until this is resolved. Apps which implement the current TextExpander touch SDK may not clear review until their TextExpander touch SDK is updated.
I love the people at Smile Software and hate to see this kind of stuff happen to them. They care about their products and customers.
Open! Wait, wrong news article.
I guess the next time Google does something stupid, Dalrymple will have forgotten about this, and will go back to making fun about how Google isn’t nearly as open as everybody pretends they are, even though something like this would never be any kind of problem on Android, because on Android, Apps actually have proper APIs for talking to each other.
This is why I never buy from the App Store if I can get it from the developer some other way.
TextExpander is one of my all-time favorite applications. I could not work without it now.
