“Gliph, a mobile messaging app for iOS, has been asked by Apple to remove its key bitcoin-related feature. The issue at hand is the app’s ability to attach bitcoin amounts to messages. Users on Android still have the ability to attach bitcoin to messages with Gliph. Google’s mobile platform has been much more lenient towards virtual currency-related applications that exists within its Google Play store. Last month, Coinbase experienced problems with Apple when the technology giant removed Coinbase’s application from the App Store. The Coinbase iOS app, which enabled users to buy, sell and send bitcoin, had been live for less than a month before it was removed.”
