I searched the apps store tonight for Aurora Feint after some great reviews from Macbreak Weekly. After a few searches and scanning I couldn’t find it at all, apparently it was kicked off the iPhone app store - for security issues.
Luckily I was able to find a link from a “customers also bought” list.
I wont be able to give any reviews but I’m for sure not going to use any of the community features, since it scans your address book and sends it to their servers unencrypted to find your friends playing at the same time. A fantastic idea but poorly implemented. At least the developers knew it was wrong in the first place but they felt rushed to get it out for the launch.
aside: I do think apple did the right thing, I don’t think anyone in their right mind would think different. But Apple is supposed to be looking at all these apps first andI’m sure they wont let something like this fly by them again - especially since it sounds like they’re taking more time to review.
This is why I think an app store is a good idea, Apple doesn’t care to “control you”, they want to make sure you don’t experience something insecure or faulty. Then again, neither of which is happening to perfection just yet, whether its due to the rushed approvals for launch or not.
Update: That was fast. They’re back in the store with “apple’s endorsement”. Check out Jason’s comment below.
