The iPhone Porn App Slips In & Out (NSFW)

January 12, 2010

Here is one that didn't last long, forChan, an "unrestricted" photo browser app (read: for Porn) has made it in and out of the App Store in no time today.

The app, a simple photo browser, was not very harmful actually. You could provide it with the URL of an online photo catalog and it would simply display it the way the iPhone native picture app (or Flickr) does.

The default gallery, full of puppies, was however intended to be quickly replaced by some other content that the user just needed to activate from the developer's website. Here is before, and after :

Charles Rodriguez, the president of forChan's developing company, commented the following way:

It’s important to note that forChan does not contain an Easter egg. There is no code within the actual app which enables the adults only feature. We simply programmed it with dual functionality, all content is delivered by our company’s servers. Using forChan in this capacity is no different than visiting an adults only site with a web browser app purchased from iTunes.

There is another funny bit: the app has been submitted, approved and then pulled in less than 24 hours.
