Can I deploy this kind of app?

Hello,

I have a mobile website that I wanted to place in an app and run through the webView control inside the app. I’m still going to have a startup screen and a few others. But when you go to one scene I want to show my mobile website with it. I have seen other apps like this I believe. Someone told me today that it would not get approved. Is this true? Does anyone know the restrictions for this?

Thanks,

Warren

Apple doesn’t want native apps that are just repackaged websites.  Apps have to have some app like features: tableViews, swiping, tabBar’s etc.  If you create a single view and load in a webView, it will get rejected.  But if the webView is part of the overall app, they will approve it.

Okay. I wasn’t going to package just the website. I was planning to create some pages in the app but have some others run through the website.
