A statement from the Application Developers Alliance President and CEO Jake Ward in response to Apple’s rejection of Spotify’s newest mobile application:
“For the app marketplace to continue to thrive, users to have choices, and developers to have a competitive opportunity, platforms must give publishers clear and consistent guidelines. Platforms deliberately creating friction and obstacles between publishers and users is bad for business and ultimately hurts consumers.”
