Doing something good isn´t always easy
My donation ambitions have been severly limited by Apple now 
So basically i wanted to donate something to help organizations doing their job in Haiti and since i´m not exceptionally rich and rely on client work to pay my bills i thought a nice thing to do could be donating my returns of a month for stuntmanbob for the iPhone.
So i bumped up the price a little, wrote a blog post about it and also added a note regarding it in my app description on itunes.
Basically just saying before people get angry about the high price they should consider i want to donate all returns for a month to haiti help organizations and they should read my blog post for more info.
This is how it looked:
i also submitted an update to the game with some new levels hoping that once that got approved the sales would go up some.
Well, then my app update didn´t get approved for a while and then i got informed by Apple that i´d have to change my app description because they “don´t allow donation references in the iTunes description” there.
So yeah, i removed those references now (and the updated description version should be live on the app store soon is on the app store now) and dropped the price down again cause without the explanation that the money will be donated people wouldn´t accept such high prices for most games and write negative reviews.
I understand why Apple does that, they probaby don´t want to deal with donation related stuff or people doing fraud or something, but yeah, its a bummer for people who actually want to donate and well, without being able to say that on the page for the product one can´t really motivate people a lot.
I´ll still donate the returns of the full month, but yeah, its a bummer in a way.
Well, maybe now the update to my app will at least get approved soon.
