App REJECTED - Please Help

TryAgain

Hi Guys,
I sent my new app to Apple for approval on February,12 and today it has been rejected.
The worst thing is that I can't understand where I'm wrong,as in the Resolution Center in iTunes Connect
there's this message:
"10.6

We found the following issues with the user interface of your app:
- Did not include iOS features. For example, it would be appropriate to use native iOS buttons and iOS features other than just web views, Push Notifications, or sharing.

The application currently contains forward and back buttons with input fields, however there are no advanced iOS specific advanced features implemented. "

It's the first time that I send an app for approval,so I really can't understand what they want me to do..Could you guys please help me?I'm going crazy..!

@TryAgain

I don't think they want you using forward and backward buttons that look like they're native Xcode buttons, unless they are actually native Xcode buttons
Keep us updated on what happens after you appeal.
(I'm not saying I agree with them, just telling you what I think the problem was)

I hope they won't me to insert iOS native features or buttons..With Gamesalad you can't..!
Moreover,what do they mean when they say "buttons with input fields"?Maybe that's because those buttons change table values,save tables and attributes?is that a mistake that I made?

Chakku

what do they mean when they say "buttons with input fields"?

@TryAgain
I think they mean the 'KeyBoard Input' behavior, although it'd be pretty sad if they've stopped accepting apps that didn't have the popup keyboard (rather than the fullscreen thing we get right now).
Personally, I prefer the current setup for KeyBoard Input. If this is the problem, and they won't accept any apps with that behavior, then either GameSalad will talk with them, or they'll redesign that behavior.

Well,in my app there's no keyboard input behaviour...I made my own custom keyboard,with a-z and numbers..

Team6Labs

@TryAgain that's probably one of the problems. Maybe use the keyboard input behavior?

Post a few screenshots of your app so we can see what it looks like. I've seen plenty of apps with a custom keyboard, I have one in one of my apps, I doubt that's the issue.

iAds are showed on the bottom,but in the guess scene they are on top

Zenith_Gameworks

There is an obvious grammatical error in one of your screenshots. Can you spot it?

TryAgain

no please tell me..!
Moreover,do you think that a required iOS feature could be GameCenter?

Zenith_Gameworks

"Are you a movie addicted" should be Are you a movie addict. And in answer to your question, i don't think so. Plus there might be copyright infringement involving the images you used. Not sure though...

TryAgain

Well about copyright I made my app for free distribution according to fair use policy...
They didn't say anything about copyright,there's a lack in UI for them..

ShaunElery

If you make money from ads I don't think you can use copyrited material even if you do distribute it for free. But I may be wrong.

TryAgain

Yes you can,just look at tons of trivia apps for logos,shows,famous people etc..It's OT anyway,the app has been rejected due to UI errors.

TryAgain

any suggestion?

@tryagain personally if it were me, I would just go to itunes connect and contact them via email etc. I recently had to ask them a question about publishing and I got a response within 24 hours. Why speculate when you can go right to the source.

TryAgain

Done already when it was rejected,hope they reply soon.
