iPhone developer? Had your app rejected for unfathomable reasons by Apple? Hey, there's an app - well, actually a website, though we'd have thought it's a logical next step to make it an app - for that.

The site you're looking for is apprejections.com, set up by British iPhone app developer Adam White who describes himself as "games developer specialising in online games... usually at a senior level". (Oh look, we interviewed him on the Gamesblog in 2007.)

Anyhow, he feels that Apple "has a secret, undocumented, unquestionable, random process for deciding which applications to 'allow' onto the deck." The rejection of Google Voice did change things, by prompting an FCC investigation into Apple's business processes for app approval. That, though, meant that "the invisible submission process changed radically shortly after - and in particular the number of truly 'unfair' rejections soared," Martin asserts.

I'm not sure if that is correct; even though we've written about Apple banning Macworld's ebook that had the word "iPhone" in the title, and appearing to delay the 0870 app, there's a fairly clear list of things that get you banned. Using private APIs, that sort of thing.

In fact I wrote back in July about a Tumblr blog that was collecting feedback on precisely this: the Application Submission Feedback blog, which seems to be up-to-date (there aren't dates, but the latest recorded feedback is recent).

Perhaps the two could somehow figure out a way to collaborate so that the "mysterious" rejections can be logged against topics in the App Submission Feedback blog? It might be a plan.

(If you've had your app rejected from the App Store, then tell Adam Martin on Twitter. And tell us, of course.)

In the meantime, we sincerely hope that someone will turn the App Store Rejection site into an app. We'd love to know if that will then be accepted or rejected, and whether that would be like Russell's Paradox - which is whether a book that lists all the books that do not list themselves should list itself (or who shaves the barber who shaves everyone who doesn't shave themself - though that's easy: hire a female barber). Should an app that lists rejections be rejected? Only time will tell.
