Apple just removed Airfoil Speakers Touch 3 from the iOS app store , despite claims from developer Rogue Amoeba that the app follow with all of Apple ’s rules and developer understanding . What gives , Apple ?
Airfoil Speakers Touch is rad , which is why this bothers us . Since 2009 the app has allowed you to pelt audio frequency from your computer — Mac or PC — to your iOS gadget . Last calendar month , Rogue Amoeba released Airfoil Speakers Touch 3 , introduced the ability to push audio frequency from one iOS machine to another . All foretoken direct to the removal being somehow linked to this new functionality . Still , Apple has n’t given Rogue Amoeba Softwarea concrete reason for the app ’s removal :
We first learn from Apple about this decision two days ago , and we ’ve been discussing the pending removal with them since then . However , we still do not yet have a clear answer on why Apple has chosen to remove Airfoil Speakers Touch . uncalled-for to say , we ’re quite defeated with their decision , and we ’re working hard to once again make the software usable for you , our substance abuser .
Rogue Amoeba has appealed the app ’s removal .
In fairness , it ’s possible that Apple has some security concerns about this character of functionality . On the other hand could it be that Apple is using its hand of god to keep Airfoil from competing with its curent or upcoming products ? [ Rogue Amoeba SoftwareviaTechmeme ]
