Apple faces criticism by Pebble Time for not approving its app review.
Recently Pebble Time started the shipment of is the wearable device. However, the company is dealing with several issues whilst connecting with Apple iPhones. The company is concerned about this issue and to add more value to this, the company has approached Twitter Inc. to make the issue viral on social media.
Pebble Time has asked customers to help it out and has asked consumer to promote ““#FreeOurPebbleTime” since Apple Inc. is making it relatively difficult for them. App store submission is the core problem, which the company is dealing with currently.
According to the company, the developers have sent an app review to Apple on May 18 before the Pebble Time was actually launched. Moreover, Pebble also believes that the company is responsible for the obstruction. Ironically, many customers consider Pebble’s device to be “paper weight” for Apple users since it is not much compatible.
Apple is not the one to be blamed since Pebble submitted the app review and less than 10 days had passed. However, for any app review to publish, minimum 10 days are required. Pebble should have taken this factor into consideration before submission because this is certainly not Apple’s fault if they were not considerate about Apple’s policies.
For the time being, Pebble has asked its clients to access the watch facilities by borrowing an Android phone. The idea is to down load the Watch Faces so that they can enjoy the features of this wearable technology.
Pebble has also acknowledged that they submitted bug fixes for its product, but that also has been pending since 43 days. According to them the issue is the Apple Watch is the reason why Apple has been skeptical about their products. The company wishes to only develop, market, sale and promote its own wearable technology. According to BidnessEtc, “The official statement by the company remains that they have not faced any faults with the Pebble app, with the previous statement of applications not being denied access, on the grounds that they are working with Pebble.”
It is normal for Pebble to react in such a manner, but now they are just trying to create controversy, everybody knows that the Apple Watch is relatively better than Pebble Time in terms of quality, finish, features etc. but the biggest benefit for Apple watch is that it is an Apple product. The company should settle the dispute with authorities in a subtle manner rather than making the entire social media talk about it.
