It's been a long time coming. I wonder what the actual delay was seeing as they announced they were allowing them back a while ago.

What? Why would the price rise due to it? It's free app.

Because some traders buy when they read good news and sell bad news, but recently we have seen that the price won't follow them.

Yeah, good news about merchants who are accepting bitcoins as payment. Blockchain.info is just a web wallet / app and it being re added to the app store isnt going to cause a price spike.

Oh look, Apple has "allowed" their loyal slaves to use blockchain app again, the slaves must be overjoyed. For how long I wonder.

I tried to download before and it wouldn't work, but now I have successfully downloaded it and it is working fine. 

My guess is that blockchain found a small glitch and was updating the app so that the old one was removed (thus I couldn't download it) and a new one was being uploaded.

This is a good development, or at least, back to what should have always been.  However, I don't see how this will move the market if something like Dell starting to take them didn't.

It probably won't move the market right away, but over time it should increase the amount of adaption that bitcoin gets from the masses.

It's good to see the app is back on their store but it will take some time for that goodwill they destroyed when they took it off in the first place to be replaced.

Remembers the bounty for shooting an apple phone and receiving a nexus 5 instead.

That's what I was thinking...
Divinespark this piece of news probably effects the price by $1... It's meaningless information and it's a free app...it does nothing for Bitcoin it's just another project that makes it easier to use

That's a bummer. Hopefully they get a true iPad version out soon. I like the iPhone version, but I agree about the logo looking a bit lame (I like the older logo better).
