If 30,000 Users Say This App Sucks, Why Is It #1?
Last week we featured Punk’d apps … iPhone applications that are so freaking stupid, they seem to be playing a practical joke on Apple – will Apple really approve this total piece of garbage? Typically, Punk’d apps have extremely limited functionality … like the “Friday?” app … push a button and depending on what day of the week it is, the app displays “Yes It’s Friday” or “No It’s Not Friday”. Yeah it’s lame … but what’s lamer is that Apple approved it.
Not to beat a dead horse, but we came across what might be the ultimate App Store bottom feeder … an app that’s so bad, it makes you want to smack both Apple and the developer upside the head for offering such krapp.
From the makers of such fine apps as “BullCrap Lie Detector”, “My Sexy Watch”, Bloody Razor” and “Burping Farting Piano” … Inner Four, Inc. presents … the Mirror Free app. This app is simply a game changer! Launch Mirror Free and your iPhone screen goes completely blank (except for a frame) … then you’re supposed to carefully tilt the iPhone to see your reflection in the black background (patience, it takes practice). Flippin’ brilliant!
Oh and by the way, did you notice the amount of ratings this sack of shit has received … over 30,000 in the span of 2-weeks since it was released July 1 – proudly displaying its
1 and a half star. Most developers would kill just to receive a quarter of Mirror Free’s ratings (sans the 1 and a half stars). It’s mind boggling that this app could generate such public outcry, that a consumer would actually feel compelled to take the time and apply a low rating. LOL … Mirror Free has the special ability to piss people off.
Now the story gets even better. Take a quick minute to jump in the App Store, click the Top Free Apps category and have a look … (go ahead, check it out, we’ll wait until you get back)
Ok, back now? – good. Yeah, our feelings exactly … WTF IS THAT?!? …
Mirror Free Is The #1 Free iPhone Application!
How the hell can an app receive over 30,000 krappy ratings be the #1 app? Apple’s user rating “secret formula” is seriously jacked up if this is the kind of nonsense it generates as #1. HELLO APPLE – over 30,000 users say it sucks – Mirror Free should be buried in App Store hell, not flipping the bird at hard working developers as it reigns King of free apps. Check your math Apple – it blows big time.
Oh and let’s not even discuss Mirror Free’s in-app advertising … so who knows how much bank Inner Four is making. Is this really what the Revolutionary App Store is coming too … piss off enough people with your useless trash and be rewarded as #1? Good thing Baby Shaker was pulled, little sucker would still be sitting in the top spot.
Change the “secret formula” Apple! Obviously quantity does not equal quality …
Mirror Free is a bad joke and so is your rating system.
