Earlier this month, Apple sent an email out to developers on a new process they're implementing which more or less aims to sweep up some of the old garbage cluttering the halls of the App Store. The goal makes sense, as they want to trim down the amount of broken or otherwise totally unmaintained apps cluttering up the App Store which is still packed with all sorts of games and apps which might not even support the Retina Display (among many other potential problems of abandoning software on a quickly evolving platform). I get it, it's a pretty terrible user experience to have someone searching for a game, and have the possibility exist where the one they choose to download hasn't been updated in five years, resulting in it potentially looking terrible or maybe even not working at all. Apple's mantra has always been "it just works," so keeping these old and often supremely janky apps on the App Store represents a real problem. However, Apple is doing what they seem to love to do: Addressing a problem in a way that creates an even bigger mess than they started with. When I set out to write about this, it was largely spurred by a tweet I saw from Owen Goss who mentioned that both Dapple and Monkeys in Space were going to be removed from the App Store:
