The $250 Brain Analyzer iPhone App

It never ceases to amaze us the shit Apple will approve. While they might come off as bad asses, trying to improve the quality of the App Store with statement like these …

We have over 250,000 apps in the App Store. We don’t need any more fart apps.

 

If your App looks like it was cobbled together in a few days, or you’re trying to get your first practice App into the store to impress your friends, please brace yourself for rejection.

 

We have lots of serious developers who don’t want their quality Apps to be surrounded by amateur hour.

… Apple still has some serious issues saying no to “amateur hour” applications.

Take for example … Brain Analyzer. Bargain priced at $250, this application is wrong on so many levels.

With help from Google Translate (Engrish to English), it seems Brain Analyzer analyzes your brain (whoopee). But since the app is in “testing” … the developer is not quite sure if it will work. And Apple’s policy states, “Apps that are beta, demo, trial or test versions will be rejected.” Well, except for Brain Analyzer … Apple plays favorites with them.

"Don’t buy it” … ah yes, clever reverse psychology marketing term. Only to say, “you can buy it but we will not refund any money” … LMAO, WTF.

At $250, we’re not quite sure why Apple gifted us the privilege of purchasing this sack of suck … but at least we get a “thank you for your support” in advance.

*facepalm*

  • looks like it got pulled (at least from the US AppStore). I can just imagine there is someone at Apple tasked with checking KRAPPS daily to see what they should be squashing!

  • Oh the shame! Brain Analyzer actually started at $300+ … so $250 is a helluv a deal!

    Actually, it looks like Brain Analyzer has been in the App Store for just under a month, its price was updated 13 times before they updated it to FREE. It started at $449.99.

    Actually, Apple seems to have reversed its statement about Fart apps and Radio station apps. I have seen new apps for both recently and a new radio station app was added just today. 🙂

    Apple really needs to get its reviewers on the same page. Sheesh!

  • Great info, thank you!

    LMAO … consistancy has never been one of Apple's strong points 🙂
