Tolkade det annorlunda, men du har rätt (tyvärr). Var säker på att andra tjänster hade länkar för att skapa konto (tex Netflix), men de verkar ha uppdaterat villkoren och tvingat apparna att ta bort länkarna. Kan förstå Apple på ett sätt men det känns ändå märkligt.
Kolla här, Netflix går säkert runt det hela med denna klausul. Jag menar, hur många skapar sitt Netflix-konto genom iOS-appen och även betalar genom appen? Skulle säga att 99% skapar, betalar och använder Netflix genom webbläsaren eller inbyggda appen i TV-apparaten. Spotify å andra sidan är nog 99% som istället kör "in-app purchase".
3.1.3(a) “Reader” Apps: Apps may allow a user to access previously purchased content or content subscriptions (specifically: magazines, newspapers, books, audio, music, video, access to professional databases, VoIP, cloud storage, and approved services such as classroom management apps), provided that you agree not to directly or indirectly target iOS users to use a purchasing method other than in-app purchase, and your general communications about other purchasing methods are not designed to discourage use of in-app purchase.
3.1.3(b) Multiplatform Services: Apps that operate across multiple platforms may allow users to access content, subscriptions, or features they have acquired elsewhere, including consumable items in multi-platform games, provided those items are also available as in-app purchases within the app. You must not directly or indirectly target iOS users to use a purchasing method other than in-app purchase, and your general communications about other purchasing methods must not discourage use of in-app purchase.
3.1.4 Hardware-Specific Content: In limited circumstances, such as when features are dependent upon specific hardware to function, the app may unlock that functionality without using in-app purchase (e.g. an astronomy app that adds features when synced with a telescope). App features that work in combination with an approved physical product (such as a toy) on an optional basis may unlock functionality without using in-app purchase, provided that an in-app purchase option is available as well. You may not, however, require users to purchase unrelated products or engage in advertising or marketing activities to unlock app functionality.
