75. IPhone Human Interface guidelines indicates how the basic UI controls should be used correctly. We should follow its requirements to check whether controls such as tab bar, Navigation Bar, and alert view match Apple's taste.
76. Make sure the app does not mimic the style and functionality of the device preinstalled, such as music, the ITunes music Store, and the App Store. This rule appears to be selective, as many browsers and compass applications are approved.
77, do not add too much swearing, no reason for erotic scenes and drug scenes.
