The FCC is still investigating the rejections of Google’s Google Voice application from the App Store. We’ve seen AT&T’s and Apple’s response related to Google Voice but the best part, Google’s letter to the FCC hasn’t been available to the public in its full version until now. The FCC decided to reveal the whole letter and you can check it out for yourself by following the link below.
So why has Apple rejected Google Voice? From the correspondence between Apple’s Senior VP of Worldwide Product Marketing, Phil Shiller and Google’s Senior VP of Engineering & Research, Alan Eustace there only a conclusion to be drawn: it seems that the “application duplicated the core dialer functionality of the iPhone” and that was an unwanted scenario. But wait a minute, didn’t Apple say they are still revising the app? Well it looks like Apple told Google that Google Voice has been rejected from the store. Did Apple lie in its response to the FCC?
We’ll see how this conflict develops in the future as there’s no clear conclusion about the future of Google Voice for iPhone so far.
