    Well, to be fair, Android users have a good range of ad blocking options available, and they are among the most popular apps on the store.

    And in further news, I admit that I'm not developing an app for the Apple Watch, nor will I be buying it. I won't be selling ads on it, and I potentially won't be allowed to sell ads on it.

    Directly from the article:

    Both Apple's WatchKit SDK and the TapSense SDK are in Beta and APIs are subject to change.

    As and when Apple makes the WatchKit guidelines available, we will review it carefully to ensure our SDK is both in compliance and approved by Apple.

    While Apple has released initial WatchKit APIs for developers . . . , it has not yet detailed how full screen WatchKit apps will work.

    Apple has also released no details on its plans to enable or allow any type of advertising on Apple Watch.


     

    I don't know everything about how it works, but I do know that the watch does not support Apple Pay in apps. Look on Apple's website if you don't believe me. Anyway, the functionality they describe sounds more like Passbook than Apple Pay.

     

    Announcing something then backtracking the next day isn't about developing beta software; it's promising something you can't deliver in order to get publicity.

    This crazy sheer fcukwitedness(TM) of an implementation from TapSense should tell everyone what they need to know about this company.

    Is TapSense gambling Apple will see merit in their ad platform and make them an offer?

     

    The curation process could be one way to get your foot in the door, or at the very least, get the company's name into the headlines and then milk it dry. If the work is rejected consider it an endorsement and get back into the headlines and,

     

    Then go foist your platform on an Apple competitor.
