Exactly what I&#x27;d expect. There&#x27;s also:<p>&gt; Don’t refer to Apple devices generically as &quot;smartphones&quot; or &quot;tablets.&quot;<p>&gt; Don’t list Apple products that are not compatible with your app.<p>&gt; Don’t display a blank screen on an Apple product, or on a television screen when showcasing Apple TV.<p>&gt; The status bar [...] should show a full network icon [...], a full Wi-Fi icon, and a full battery icon.<p>And:<p>&gt; Don’t feature the Apple logo to take advantage of the promotional value of the Apple brand.<p>But:<p>&gt; Don’t obscure or cover the [Apple] logo.<p>It&#x27;s really treading a fine line between the two, figuring out what exactly is allowed.<p>Some of the guidelines are even more neurotic:<p>&gt; Always typeset [iPod] touch with a lowercase t.<p>&gt; For [iPhone XR&#x2F;XS] headlines and copy, use an uppercase X, small cap S, and small cap R<p>&gt; Don’t use the word &quot;watch&quot; or &quot;time&quot; as a pun or verb in your marketing materials.<p>And the final gem:<p><pre><code> Don’t break Apple Watch over two lines. </code></pre> Oops.

&gt; Whenever one or more badges for other app platforms appear in the layout, use the preferred black badge. Place the App Store badge first in the lineup of badges.
