Apple Spikes Sparrow’s iPhone 5 Update


When Apple launched the iPhone 5 in September, the dev team behind Sparrow was quick to announce that it would be updating its wonderful email client for the new, larger screen — but Apple has rejected the new version of the app.

On Twitter, Sparrow dev Dinh Viet Hoa has announced:

Seems Apple has issues with Sparrow’s Rich Text support — which seems weird — but that means the next Sparrow update will be for iOS 6 devices only. Given Sparrow is now owned by Google, it was surprising to hear that the app was being updated for iOS anyway. Either way, the news is really quite frustrating. [Dinh Viet Hoa via Cult of Mac]
