App Store Review is obstructing another Basecamp camp, and David Heinemeier Hansson isn’t delighted. It taken place in 2020 with the iOS app for their Hey email service. This time, it’s the standalone Hey Calendar app that Apple states breaches App Store guidelines.

From DHH on X:

Apple simply contacted us to let us understand they’re turning down the HEY Calendar app from the App Store (in present kind). Exact same bullying techniques as last time: Push fragile rejections to a call with a first-name-only individual who’ll gently notify you it’s your wallet or your kneecaps.

Given that it’s clear we’re never ever going to pay them the extortionate 30% ransom, they’re back to the bullshit about “the app does not do anything when you download it”. Regardless of the truth that after last time, they particularly took HEY in App Store Review Guidelines 3.1.3 (f)!
