New iPhone App Can Be Programmed To Display Porn

It’s a well known fact that Apple does not tolerate porn in the App Store … “Apple will not distribute applications that contain inappropriate content, such as pornography,” said Apple spokesman Tom Neumayer in an official company statement last June. If porn somehow does manage to find a way into an app (we’ve detailed 5 cases of in-app pornography), Apple lowers its mighty ban hammer and the offending application is quickly removed.

But gosh darnit … this is porn. And when there’s a will, there’s a way … just ask Charles Rodriguez, president of iPhone app publishing company, iHustleApps. For months Charles racked his brain, trying to figure out the way to his will … nude female images within an Apple-approved native app, while avoiding the ban hammer. And what Charles came up with is an App Store first … the forChan app.

On the surface, forChan seems unique, interesting and innovative … a web browser wrapped into a photo viewing application. Connect to any imageboard site and forChan presents the content in convenient thumbnail and full-size views. You can emails photos, view as a slideshow, save to your iPhone, shake to refresh images and more. The app’s default URL is set to an imageboard displaying dozens of cuddly canines.

But don’t judge an app by its cover. In a few simple steps …

Step 1: Download forChan
Step 2: Via your iPhone, visit iHustleApps.com/iPhone and press the “forChan” button
Step 3: Select one of the 15 “adults only” categories
Step 4: Copy the displayed URL to your clipboard
Step 5: Paste the URL in the Store URL section of forChan

… those adorable doggies become a bevy of uncensored XXX bliss, with all its flick and pinch glory. YOWZA!

“It’s important to note that forChan does not contain an Easter egg. There is no code within the actual app which enables the adults only feature. We simply programmed it with dual functionality,” said Charles. “All content is delivered by our company’s servers.” Charles continued, “Using forChan in this capacity is no different than visiting an adults only site with a web browser app purchased from iTunes.”

Hmmm … ok, fair enough – a web browser. Like we said … when there’s a will, there’s a way. And since ultimately it’s the user enabling the adult content in forChan, perhaps iHustleApps will indeed avoid Apple’s ban hammer.

  • Nice Boobs, i mean nice App…..i'm not a porn freak but this app is the bomb.

  • brian

    I don't get it. why not just use the browser?

  • forChan presents the images in a “native-style” … meaning thumbnails,
    slideshow, swipe functionality, etc. … so these subtle “specialties” make
    forChan unique

  • Updated 2 p.m. PDT: forChan is no longer in the App Store. That was fast.

  • No_Tie

    Wow. Maybe being highlighted in KRAPPS is dangerous!

    DO NOT TELL ANYONE ABOUT 9,999 Ringtones Uncensored! It lets you type nasty things and use them as ringtones, so that might upset them!

  • LOL … watch out … we'll feature Safari next and really screw up the
    iPhone 😉

  • That's not really a bad thing at all….LOL

  • Nice app, good for viewing images, better than using the browser. But why did they remove it from the App store ?

  • Here's the update we did to the banned forChan app … not only did Apple
    ban the app, but kicked the developer out of the App Dev program entirely ->

    I just don't understand why Apple is being so Puritan with their views on Adult Content. Why can't they just make any adult iphone apps force the user to verify their age before they can browse or purchase? It seems to make more sense than to leave millions of dollars on the table and punish all these developers for making apps that are not violating any policy..
