After 2 rejects from AppStore, I decided to give up the POLADROID for iPhone release.
The situation is incredible : APPLE doesn't accept POLADROID in the AppStore.
According to APPLE, POLADROID ressembles (too much) or produces POLAROID effects so realistic.
Modifications claimed by APPLE are too heavy : he asks me to modify the frame and the graphic treatment. (sic !)
APPLE reply :
../.. your application named POLADROID appears to include features that associate with POLAROID or resemble Polariod photographs. Polaroid has previously objected to other applications that include such features and believes that they infringe its rights.
POLADROID will be too much efficient ?
But, curiously, several POLAROID-Like softwares (and copies of POLADROID !!!) are already present into the AppStore. The last one was validated the 14th of April. I am not able to understand.
I'm so sorry but it seems that POLADROID for iPhone would only remain a beautiful dream.

This is good site to spent time on .I just stumbled upon your informative blog and wanted to say that I have really enjoyed reading your very well written blog posts. I will be your frequent visitor, that’s for sure.
Thanks for taking the time to discuss this, I feel strongly about it and love learning more on this topic. If possible, as you gain expertise, would you mind updating your blog with more information? It is extremely helpful for me.
There are many online as well as offline stores available from where you can buy discount Gucci shoes.
With the help of internet you can get a complete list of stores offering the discount Gucci shoes.
Louboutin began painting the soles red because "it is the color of love.
It's the color of passion. Even if a woman is wearing all black, she might choose a red lip or red nails."
I'm the same way, I do my best to remain neutral. It's hard, if you communicate with the person the other person dislikes, then you fall out of favor with them! I simple can't dislike a person, just because someone else does, I just can't.
The difference between the right word and the almost right word is really a large matter — it's the difference between a lightning bug and the lightning.
Even though you changed the name, it still implies the resemblance to Polaroid (which is honoring it, not infringing, in my mind). Maybe try "branding" it with a completely different name which doesn't resemble Polaroid, then submit it under the new name -- wonder if it gets accepted then?!
Way cool. Guy Kawasaki just tweeted (on Twitter) about your Poladroid app. He has a following of a small country, so your app should get even more visitors, donators.
I have introduced a lot of friends look at this article, the content of the articles there will be a lot of attractive people to appreciate, I have to thank you such an article.
All over the world there are many places where you can get a car rented, but most of them are located near the airports.
The reason for the car rental to be so popular is the fact that all of the travelers that come from all of the planes there are looking for means of transport and they will most certainly visit them.
The car rentals are very popular to all of the travelers, because they offer quality and all of it comes for a reasonable price.
We can even think of gifting it someone because these replica Rolex watches also provides a wide range of models to choose from like Daytona replica Rolex watch,Swiss Rolex replica watch etc. Particularly when compared to the high price of a genuine Rolex, a Replica fake replica rolex watches watch shows itself to be a true value.
Sad to hear that your proposaL in polaroid app for IPhone was rejected. It is a nice application to feel like a real instant camera. I heard now the ShakeItPhoto. I think it is the same application.

How can Apple reject your app when this just became available: http://www.wired.com/gadgetlab/2009/06/shakeit-brings-polaroid-pictures-to-the-iphone/
What a bunch of shit.

Seriously, I doubt Polaroid give a monkeys - they gave up on the camera business a long time ago and now just sell rebadged LCD tv's.

HMMM
Bummer ... apple are such hard arses!
Go Android Go !
In the mean time there do seem to be one or two polaroid apps that are on the store. The one I have come to like the most is ShakeIt - its kinda cute - and there is a lite version to test it out before you buy.

Other names to consider:
Hemaroid? Naw, that's a picture we don't want to see developed.
It'll be "passing off" that they're worried about.

Rename the iPhone version of the app
Call it iDevelop or RetroCam!
Instead of a white border let users change the colour of the borders (white being one of the selectable colors)

so sad... maybe Cydia. we really love your app.

Rejected from App Store
This appears to be Apple being cautious about what Polaroid claims are its rights -- in a backwards way, this is a high compliment that Apple deems your app to have such high quality. Don't give up! Your desktop version of Poladroid is awesome. See if you can't request more specifics from Apple on why not. Even though you changed the name, it still implies the resemblance to Polaroid (which is honoring it, not infringing, in my mind). Maybe try "branding" it with a completely different name which doesn't resemble Polaroid, then submit it under the new name -- wonder if it gets accepted then?!

Here's hoping for a Pre version!
Polaroid would be smart to buy the app from you and sell it themselves. Of course, Polaroid isn't very smart.
The Apple store would be the best source of revenues for you.
Just figure out what the real issue is. Maybe someone at Apple has a vested interest in promoting a competitor (being paid under the table?) or maybe just plain stupidity - in that case, get a release from whomever holds the Polaroid rights now that it is defunct. If it is Fuji, they would understand that it would be in their interest to revive the Polaroid interest - or offer to share with them the Apple store revenues 50/50 (or negotiate better deal)
In any case, do not give up, your program rocks !

Could it run in Symbian cell phone?
Your application is great!

On To Blackberry Then?
I guess it's on to making an app for the Blackberry then ..
I'm really sorry to hear that, since this would be a real killer application for any iPhone - although I don't even own one. But crippling your code until it's a completely different application doesn't make any sense.
So what about Poladroid on Android? They share so many letters!
