Summary
Freecash, an app that allowed users to earn money by completing tasks and watching videos, was removed from the Apple App Store after TechCrunch reached out for comment. The app was reportedly available on the App Store for several months before its removal. Apple did not provide a reason for the removal, but it is speculated that the app may have violated the company’s guidelines.
Our Reading
The launch follows a familiar script.
Freecash, an app that promised users a way to earn money, was yanked from the App Store after some digging. Because, of course, it was too good to be true. Another “innovative” app that was just a rehash of existing ideas. The fact that it lasted several months on the App Store is more surprising than its eventual removal.
