The company permitted NFT marketplace OpenSea to launch an app<\/a>, but only for browsing NFTs \u2014 not for buying and selling them. The same goes for Rarible\u2019s iOS app<\/a>, which is described as an NFT browser for \u201cviewing\u201d blockchain collectibles. Other NFT apps offer similar discovery features. But the lack of official guidelines around NFTs on iOS has made it hard for app developers to know where the line is in terms of what\u2019s permitted and what\u2019s not.<\/p>\n One developer who experienced bumping up against the line first-hand is Alan Lammiman, founder of Daily Apps.<\/p>\n Lammiman created the mobile-native \u201cNFT\u201d marketplace app Sticky<\/a>, which had been live on the App Store for several months before Apple removed it. During this time, Apple approved over half a dozen updates to the app that used the term \u201cNFT\u201d in the same manner that ultimately led to the app\u2019s removal. But Apple eventually told Sticky that it was misleading to use the term \u201cNFT\u201d for digital collectibles than weren\u2019t minted to a public blockchain. It did not give Sticky time to make changes to the app before pulling it down, Lammiman said.<\/p>\n Sticky\u2019s app had been operating in a hazy area, to be fair. It was using a proprietary, private ledger, which it disclosed in the app\u2019s App Store description. The company also explained to users that its NFTs were \u201ccollectibles,\u201d but not \u201csecurities, convertible currencies, or investments.\u201d<\/p>\n The removal serves as an interesting example of how Apple is deciding what\u2019s permitted on the App Store and what\u2019s not. It\u2019s also another indication of how Apple seems<\/a> to be making<\/a> decisions on the fly as it tries to address developers\u2019 use of new technologies and terminologies.<\/p>\n
