• Notebook App For Ipad
• App Store For Mac

On December 2 Apple posted a few tips for developers who wish for their Apps to be listed in the upcoming Apple Mac App Store. One of those guidelines regarded the submission of “… demos, trials, or betas…”. With a big exclamation point, literally, Apple said, “NO!”

The copy of the notice reads:

Click next to the app that you want to delete, then click Delete to confirm. The app is deleted immediately. Apps that don't show either didn't come from the App Store or are required by your Mac. To delete an app that didn't come from the App Store, use the Finder instead.

“Your website is the best place to provide demos, trial versions, or betas of your software for customers to explore. The apps you submit to be reviewed for the Mac App Store should be fully functional, retail versions of your apps.”

1. Beautifully simple. Simply the best note-taking app for Mac. Take notes, create checklists, record audio, capture moments with Notebook. All your notes are instantly synced across your devices and to the cloud. The simple, intimate joy of Notebook comes from using the app. We've been meticulous in our design, paying attention to every detail.
2. Mac App Store Mac App Store is the simplest way to find and download apps for your Mac. To download apps from the Mac App Store, you need a Mac with OS X 10.6.6 or later.

Other suggestions included the following:

• Put files where they belong – application folders in the applications folder, no databases in the user’s documents folder, etc.
• Design of interface controls should be consistent with Apple’s built-in controls, like the close and minimize/maximize buttons

The Apple Mac App Store is going to be released some time next year. It will be similar to the iOS App Store in that it will be a curated listing of apps for the Mac OS X operating system. Apps must meet Apple’s guidelines in order to be listed. Their desire is publicly to help new users find useful applications. Cynics also think Apple sees the App Store model as a money grab since they will take a percentage of the app sales price.

This is a positive development as it will help app makers get discovered, if they meet the standards of Apple. Also it will help users find apps. One of the most positive thing about the iOS environment is the App Store. The benefit for Mac OS X users is that the App Store won’t be the only source for applications, for now. Unless a user jailbreaks his iOS device, he or she cannot get apps any other way than the App Store. So long as Apple keeps that opening, this is positive development for users. It will keep junk out of the Mac App Store, hopefully.
