What applications get approved by Apple?

From our conversation with the App Review Team (Apple) we came up with a list of guidelines you need to follow when building your iPhone application.:

Build Content Rich iPhone applications

Content rich is all about providing information that is considered valuable to your target audience. Information that users might find useful could consist of product or industry facts, statistics, reviews, tutorials, or educational information related to a specific industry.

When creating a content rich iPhone app, do not be afraid to think outside of the box. Unique ideas will generally garner more attention than the mundane and more common content concepts.

Here are some ideas on how you can build content for your iPhone application:

Calendar of Events

If your application appeals to a specific audience manage and maintain a calendar of events. The events should relate to a specific region or topic.

Product Reviews and Testimonials

Consumers will often refer to product reviews to discern what product they should purchase, what books they should read, what movies they should see etc. Product reviews with candid the reviews are most credible if both the product negatives and positives are illustrated.

Maps

Use Google Map Link(toolbox) to show users a visual representation or directions to surrounding communities or local events.

Photo Contests / Art Contests/Poetry Contest

Contests can be a great way to interact with your audience. Contests also make an iPhone app sticky, because contestants will frequently revisit the app to check their standing, or determine if they are an actual contender. All in all, contests can result in extra attention.

Writing Articles / How to Guides

When writing your articles, think about what your iPhone app users want to know, not what you want to tell them. In other words write for your audience not for yourself.
