Everything is starting to add up now on why so many developers have reportedly been wrongfully terminated. Phil Schiller reportedly stepped back from running the App Store partly over concerns that Apple’s push for more revenue could deepen conflicts with developers. He raised those concerns, stepped back, and soon after, developers began reporting sudden account terminations and lost livelihoods. Coincidence? @Apple @cue @tim_cook @carsonoliver, developers helped build this ecosystem, yet our ability to reach users still depends heavily on your control over app distribution. If your goal is to boost App Store revenue, compete fairly instead of making developers dependent on your store. Let developers distribute outside the App Store. Competition could make your store better without forcing everyone to rely on it. Internal leadership decisions shouldn't determine whether developers can support themselves and their families. The iPhone remains successful because of the apps developers build and people open every day. Even as you're reading this, you're using an app originally built by fellow developer @jack, once called Twitter. Apple, your leadership needs to recognize that and sit down with the next generation of developers. We deserve a seat at the table to discuss the future of an ecosystem we helped build. Speak to us, not just delete us. We carry more weight than you think. And this conversation is only going to get louder.

Hey John, the iPhone Duo is a beautiful piece of hardware. Matter of a fact, we spent months making sure our app felt right at home on it, only to lose our ability to distribute it. I hope Apple gives the App Store and developer rights the same attention it gives its hardware. The next chapter of the iPhone isn’t just about what Apple builds. It’s about what Apple allows others to build. As the AppStore has not scaled or changed since Jobs started it. Treat developers as partners, and the entire ecosystem wins. - from all the developers who wrongfully lost their right to distribute & build for the ecosystem they love.

We were building for the iPhone Duo. Then @Apple @AppStore wrongfully terminated our developer account, removed our apps, and left our questions unanswered. Apple’s biggest mistake is treating small developers as disposable, the same developers who made the iPhone worth buying.

Just know, @novawallets is heavily investing on Android as much as we are on iOS. Thank you for everyone being patient. Day by day we are making Android better, faster and refreshing. Today we hit #3 on “Solana Wallet” on Android play store in the US
