While Apple is getting a little softer towards allowing Bitcoin related apps in their store, I think at some point they will clean up quite a bit of these apps with the reasons being "violation of rules"
Which I hope of course not to happen. Why can't Apple just be more open and at some point even allow people to pay with Bitcoin in their app store. Perhaps wishful thinking?
Probably some cleanup will happen at some point in time, with the less used apps. I don't think that's too bad... Lots of trash in the App Store.
They won't allow Bitcoin in the near future. They love their mega profits too much, they aren't up to "rolling" with the markets and possibly taking losses.
Maybe, people should jailbreak their phones and head over to apps like Cydia to download these new bitcoin apps without any problem.
I don't know what apps are you referring to, but in my point of view, jailbreaking does not solve any Bitcoin user's problem on iOS. In fact, it even introduces the user to a new set of problems, mainly privacy related ones (have you ever wondered why the developer of breadwallet warns against installing his app on jailbroken devices? Have you ever wondered why was breadwallet only compatible with an iOS version that has no jailbreaking method?)
As for the news, Abra reminds me a bit of Mycelium local trader (which isn't avaliable on Mycelium for iOS last time I checked) and Wiper seems pretty good for beginners
