Apple strictly enforces all coronavirus program criteria in order to guarantee the “credibility” of information on the App Store’s health and safety. The firm explains the audit process for virus-related applications in its Saturday Developer Blog.
“We are rigorously evaluating applications to ensure that the data sources are in good standing, and the developers demonstrating these applications are from recognized entities such as government organizations, health-conscious NGOs, companies with extensive experience in health issues, and medical Or educational institutions, “. “Only developers from one of these recognized entities should submit applications related to COVID-19.”
Apple also bans entertainment applications and games that are themed with COVID-19 or coronavirus.
Developers should select the “time sensitive event” option when submitting allowed COVID-19 related applications to the App Store to speed up the process, as many developers focus on mitigating crisis situations.
The post states that membership fees for non-profit organizations and government agencies that develop applications related to the epidemic will be waived.
