Judging The Cover
So my 4-year old daughter constantly bugs me … “daddy, can I play with your iPhone” – “daddy, I want my iPhone” … I mean WTH? How is Apple marketing to young children? Did they take out a major media buy on Nickelodeon or something? Does Apple place subliminal messages in Yo Gabba Gabba!? Probably … but whatever. The other day I downloaded this app and thought of my annoying daughter … figured I’d let her try it to stop the bugging. So she’s sitting there all happy and giggling and stuff … then all of a sudden she let’s out a huge shreek … “DADDY, THERE IS POOPIE IN YOUR iPHONE!” Again, WTH? Did Apple stoop to another low and approve a poop app? Obviously wouldn’t be a surprise. So we checked it out and dang, they did … Apple approved a poop app!
EDITORS NOTE: While the above story is purely fiction (it didn’t happen), we can easily see this scenario occurring … people – be careful out there in App Land!
Did Apple approve a KRAPPS cousin – a POOP app? Well sort of. The clever folks at Ziconic recently launched the SoftServe app. An innocent enough app where the user creates a soft serve ice cream … adjusting its curvature, length and thickness. SoftServe can create four flavors: French Vanilla, Strawberry, Chocolate and Chocolate Fudge. And there’s the problem … that darn Chocolate Fudge. Folks … this ain’t no ordinary soft serve iPhone app … this is really the iPoop app – where you can create poops of any thickness, curvature or length. EWWW! GROSS! LOL … exactly! Hey, Ziconic isn’t claiming the gold medal of app creations (just check out their Twitter tweet above) … but you got to give them credit for giving us another opportunity to laugh at Apple’s approval process. Or better yet, like the Japanese blogger below (translation courtesy of Google Translate), laughing at people who just totally missed the boat on this app thinking it has a defective Chocolate Fudge rendering.
And finally, for all those folks out there who thought there was poop floating in the swimming pool while really it was just a Baby Ruth … don’t judge an app by its cover!
