Seems a bit weird to me that they link to fake examples to real apps in their "Featured apps". Unless they got permission?

EDIT: They are legitimate testimonials.




Hey this is Dalton. I absolutely got permission from every single app developer on the featured apps page.


Oh, very good. Maybe featured apps should be renamed to Featured Examples?

Just because if I google for Evernote iphone app, it takes me to the "legitimate" website of Evernote, not http://app.net/evernote


I never knew that Google takes you directly to the official website of a product. What I know is that google ranks websites based on keywords, links, content... (SEO) and show you (typically) the 10 first most pertinent results.

Being the first on Google doesn't mean that you are the official/legitimate website of that product.


No apology? You just made a completely baseless accusation and are passing it off as a conclusion that other reasonable people should have made.


We're one of the featured apps (ColorSchemer). We granted permission and appreciate the support.
