Apple terminated the developer account behind Nova Wallet, our only app, citing Section 3.2(f). A year of work. An entire community. A livelihood I was building my future around. I’ve since learned how many other developers have faced similar terminations. A source who worked at app review & is familiar with process tells me this clause is routinely used to close developer accounts & usually is thrown by the same internal employee. We dispute the decision. We’ve asked for the specific conduct behind it so we can respond. Even the reporting process Apple directed us to keeps sending us in circles. I have it recorded. I’m 26. I love what I build. But the uncertainty of losing everything I’ve worked toward has taken a real toll on my mental health. And I know I’m not the only developer feeling this. @johnternus @Apple @AppStore, please remember the people behind these accounts, we aren’t all robots. We have families, we have dreams, and ambition to build in today’s age. Give developers clear explanations, working appeals and a fair chance to be heard. When mistakes happen, give us a reliable way to correct them. Let developers continue serving their communities through independent distribution. Give them a future that doesn’t depend entirely on one store’s decision. To everyone who has supported us, please repost this. Not just for Nova, but for every developer who deserves to be heard. You can remove an app from a store. But you should never forget there’s a human being on the other side of that decision.
