Work On Newber To Be Discontinued

If you’ve been reading the news of late, you certainly won’t be surprised to hear of more complaints regarding Apple’s approval process for the App Store, and more specifically, the time it takes to approve applications that are submitted to them. The next victim of such treatment is FreedomVoice, who are the people behind the Newber application, which can transfer calls between the iPhone and other phones. The application was submitted to Apple for approval over 6 months ago, but the company hasn’t gotten any response from Apple yet, and as such, it’s going to discontinue work on Newber, despite spending some $600,000 on it so far, which is seriously very sad news. Hopefully Apple will make some serious effort to speed up the approval process for apps that are submitted to the App Store in the future, so as to prevent this kind of incidents from happening.
