But one of them may have copied someone else’s work.

    And looks like the first one is already stolen with a bunch of ad trackers added. That’s disappointing.

    Why is there no easy way to report stuff like this in the App Store? Apple puts almost all its eggs in the preemptive review basket, and that’s never going to be good enough.

    Riley Testut is right, but he’s kind of bitching, he can just release GBA4iOS on the App Store and people will use it instead of that crap filled with ads. What if he just had summited GBA4iOS to the App Store before this developer? Oh I know why, because he’s trying to get his AltStore approved and wanted to have GBA4iOS exclusively there to drive people into it.

        Which he has every right to do so.

        Yes, he does. But he also spend years complaining that Apple wasn’t allowing him to publish the emulator and then suddenly when Apple decides to allow it instead of going for it he seems to be focusing all his efforts into creating an alternative app store.

        To me it looks like he wasn’t expecting anyone for fork and publish his work and instead he could launch his own app store and use the emulator as a way to get people into it… almost as “greedy” as Apple.

        This hurts developers (especially small ones) and shows why competition is needed.

        I totally agree with you, but that besides the point here. Actually I believe everyone should be able to load any app into without any certificates, validation, stores etc.

    This is the other side of OSS. As long as the clones share their source code too, this is completely legal.
