Apple allowed Current App to keep the zap button on posts
In June, Damus faced issues with Apple's review process due to the "zap" feature on posts. Apple's App Review Support (AARS) stated that any feature offering value should implement In-App Purchases (IAP) per their guidelines. Although the "zap" feature was merely for user engagement, Apple insisted on IAP for compliance. An understanding was reached to make IAP optional. The final solution allowed users to purchase SATS via a $0.99 IAP or transfer SATS from other wallets, retaining the zap feature's simplicity. This approach abides by Apple's rules and aids in introducing users to Nostr, Bitcoin, and Lightning. This write up unveils all the drama that happened with Apple and how we got to keep the zap button.
