Apple banned all hot updates, which is to force the pace of standing in line? The app store audit team recently sent a message to developers that the app store will prohibit all hot updates. What is hot update? What is the impact of Apple's ban on hot update?
App hot update:
It refers to the software data update directly downloaded by the application without passing the app store software version update audit.
Apple's app store audit team recently sent a reminder to developers who have not yet adjusted the hot update code, asking them to submit an update before June 12. If not, the app may be removed from the shelves. Developers need to remove the hot update code from the app within one week, otherwise the app will be offline.
Apple forbids hot update, mainly because it is worried that some hackers may use hot update to modify apps, which will bring security risks to users.
Apple forbids hot update, which can improve the fluency of some apps using mixed language, and can also regain some channel app audit authority.
Apple's ban on hot updates of rival games and live broadcast applications should have a greater impact.
What is the impact on the game itself after hot updates are banned?
1. The game can't update functions and fix bugs frequently. The manufacturer should be more cautious before updating the version;
2. After the game is updated, users need to download the complete game again, which leads to the loss of users and the decrease of activity, especially the big package game. If users can't move, they can download more than 1G games, which is too harmful to the game experience;
3. After the game is updated, it needs to be reviewed by Apple again, resulting in an increase in the review cycle.
Hot update is very necessary in some cases. Apple's app audit speed is too slow. If there is an obvious bug in the system, the new system submission audit is too slow. This speed is unbearable compared with Android's audit. I also hope apple can do a good job in auditing.
It's reported that Apple's attitude is very strict. Give a week to rectify. If you don't cooperate with removing the code, you can get off the app. That is to say, the path of APP trying to bypass Apple's audit through hot update is blocked.
