Dear androiddev15,
The mobile application Gun Sounds
(http://slideme.org/application/gun-sounds-4) has been forbidden on SlideME
(http://slideme.org/) due to following reason:
*INADEQUATE CONTENT OR FUNCTIONALITY: SlideME may deny any application
anytime if it considers an application(s) as lacking in value, quality, or
functionality, or with no functional purpose other than developer monetizing
with Advertisements. Applications that simply link to or display a website, a
single image, stream, video, or sound are no longer being accepted on
SlideME. Applications with screenshots/Wallpapers of
celebrities/'girls'/people, hearts, vehicles, or animals will be considered
lacking in value and quality and such are at risk of being removed.
Other simple applications we are no longer accepting include (but are not
limited to) timer/alarm clocks/countdown, Trolls/Memes, farts/airhorns,
simple or external links to news, simple calculators (real or abstract,
relationship or zodiac), counters, jokes/quotes/SMS, anonymous SMS, SMB
bombing, simple or low-quality prank apps, tap count games, application
lockers, fifteen/slider puzzles, hangman, bubble/popping games, sound
frequency, Flashlight, mirror, compass, memory/concentration, snake,
tic-tac-toe, sudoku, lie detectors, RAM boosters, notepads/to-do lists, tech
demos, or other learning/tutorial-derived applications. Due to the
overwhelming volume of clones or similar submissions to viral or trending
applications being submitted to our store through our free developer
registration, we are not currently publishing or approving any more such
application submissions like those at this time. SlideME is a curated store,
which means our New Release feed is hand-selected for a variety of
applications; and we do not flood it with similar or repetitive content in
any automated fashion.
*EXCESSIVE DESCRIPTIONS: Long descriptions that list every item or feature
available in an application, use copy/pasted definitions such as from
Wikipedia, repeat keywords/tags/names, translated languages that are already
listed in the app's SlideME profile, duplicate translations to other
languages, list version history, add excessive unnecessary flavor text, user
reviews, review quotes, all caps, capitalizing each word, symbols or ASCII
art, SEO abuse, or are simple in function but unnecessarily push the length
within SlideME's SAM app are no longer permitted. Please update and shorten
your descriptions so that they no longer contain these elements.
*ANONYMOUS DEVELOPER PROFILE: Full Name required (e.g. First, Middle, &
Last Name). To distribute applications via SlideME, you are required to
identity yourself to SlideME staff with your actual full name as found on a
government-issued photo ID. This is the person's name that is responsible for
the application(s) being submitted. This is not a company name or your
username. Set the company name in the Organization field. Failure to provide
such information indicates you confirm your application is junk or malware
and you do not wish to be held accountable, and that we should in turn close
your account unless you provide a photo ID with the exact name you typed into
the "Full Name" field.
*SIMPLY AD MONETIZING: Applications with advertisements must provide genuine,
meaningful, and original content other than for the sole purpose of
displaying advertisements. This is not due to the type of advertising used,
but rather due to the functionality of your application being too simplistic,
inadequate, or containing more advertising than actual created content.
According to SlideME Content Guidelines, this application is not the type
that we will accept for our catalog in its current state of functionality.
*SUSPICIOUS OR GENERIC PACKAGE NAME: Per the Android Open Source Project and
the SlideME developer agreement, your application should have an appropriate
and unique package name (not to be confused with the uploaded .apk file
name), as set in the Application Manifest (.xml). Package names that are too
short, not unique, unchanged from tutorial examples, generic, use
unauthorized trademarks, or are suspicious will result in the application
being denied. Package names must follow standard Android and Java practices
for packageName nomenclature or those deemed acceptable by SlideME, i.e.
companydomain.apptitle or companyname.apptitle or
developer/authorname.apptitle. Package names should never use domains or
trademarks owned by other legal entities (such as com.google) and should also
never use the com.example namespace when published. This helps to avoid
conflicts as multiple apps cannot share the same packageName, it indicates
ownership of the application to your account, and it indicates that this
application was not built using tutorials/example source code or web app
builders.
You may want to check our terms & conditions as per Application Upload Form.
