![]() ![]() Just slide Yoink over any app you’re in and drag to it anything you need later. Obviously, especially on iPad, Yoink was designed for drag’n’drop use, and using it as a Slide-Over or Side-by-Side app, I’d say that’s the best way to use it. Here’s a quick YouTube video of how it works (check your sound, there’s some music) : This way, your fingers are free for more important things. It accepts almost anything you can drag, copy or share on your iPad and stores it for later use. Yoink strives to improve and simplify drag and drop and speed up your workflow.

In closing, I’d like to say that I have nothing but respect for App Reviewers. Not only would the developer know that it’s going to take longer for the app to be reviewed, they’d also have reassurance that the App Reviewer hasn’t forgotten about the app – anybody who had an app “In Review” for more than twelve hours knows that feeling □ Please stay tuned, we’re working on it.”. ![]() That would be the perfect time to let the developer know in advance that, “look, review is going to take a little longer because we’ve run into an issue with your app. When an App Reviewer isn’t sure about an app, the review is “escalated”, meaning it goes up one instance in the App Reviewer hierarchy to be reviewed by a “superior”. Why not keep going after finding a reason for rejection and see if there are other issues after that? If so, the reviewer could note them all down and give them to the developer all at once, not one by one. That’s *such* a waste of time (not only for the developer, but also for the reviewer. ![]() Yoink was rejected for different reasons and in different areas of the app.īut those reasons were given to me one by one, one submission and “Waiting for Review” -> “In Review” cycle after another. Those are all things that could have been avoided, had TestFlight App Review caught these things. Or the keyboard, for not having a traditional method of input. It would have saved me (and the App Review person) a *lot* of time and nerves had, for example, the File Provider extension been rejected right then and there for not being cloud-storage based. Maybe on the levels of “yea, good luck with that” to “possibly, tentatively not going to be rejected”. Or if that’s unrealistic for some reason, perhaps TestFlight App Review could give sort of a “likelihood of getting through the ‘real’ App Review”. If this is not checked, why have a review for TestFlight apps in the first place? My question, then, is: Why not reject the app right there if it doesn’t comply with the rules in the App Reviewer’s eyes? Now, when you add a new app or a new version of the app to TestFlight, it has to go through a review before testers can download and test it. TestFlight App Reviewįrom the very beginning, I’ve had Yoink available to a couple of (awesome) testers via TestFlight. Long story short, here’s a couple of thoughts I’ve had during all of this. I am fortunate enough to have a couple of apps out already that create a steady income, but still, I spent about two months exclusively on this app, so it’s still scary thinking about how I got rejected over and over. ![]() In the end, I was able to release it, but a month late. Had this been my first app as an indie developer, there’s a good chance I would have had to declare bankruptcy now. As some of you may know, getting Yoink for iOS through Apple’s App Review was, to say it lightly, a bit of a pain. ![]()
