Last week, NetShare application allowing the iPhone to be used as a modem (millions of people’s dream!) appeared at AppStore. Couple hours after it was gone. In an hour it was back again. 24 hours later it disappeared permanently. There was no explanation from Apple.
The developer, NullRiver company, is still confused. They wrote on their official website that Apple really put them in a dead-end situation. Unfortunately, neither of us had time to make a review of NetShare, but you can see the detailed description here.
Today, BoxOffice (a program that tells about show times in the nearest cinemas) application disappeared the same way.
Perhaps, NetShare was deleted because of AT&T’s request. They don’t need clients using special internet-tariffs to run off. Nullriver could also be punished for “old sins”: Installer and Summerboad.
Update by SeaBreeze: here is a video showing demo of BoxOffice. I wrote to the developers and got a reply that this e-mail does not exist. I got curious, and went to company’s website. Wow, the hoster has blocked the site. What if Apple started to receive complaints about the developers not answering support letters and hid the program from the list? User support is vital and Apple knows that. But how is Nullriver connected then?
