For those with X accounts: I would appreciate any reposts of https://x.com/SparrowWallet/status/2069125045167775896.
Unless Apple’s decision to terminate my Apple Developer account is reversed by June 30, all new installs of Sparrow will fail, and development on macOS will end.

Could you share a screenshot?
I created a placeholder iOS app for the App Store to warn users about scam “Sparrow” apps, of which there have been over a dozen.
The app was never published, but Apple flagged it (a year later) for “dishonest activity” and will terminate my Apple Developer account on June 30 unless the decision is reversed.
This sucks!!! What can be done?
The situation needs to be brought to the attention of Apple’s App Review board. Unfortunately X is probably the best way to achieve this, otherwise my appeal may never be reviewed by a human.
Can’t @jack talk to people?
You need Saylor Balaji and Pomp to retweet to get engagement. Granted it's a retarded idea but it gets the alg working
Wow. This is bad.
Will share.
Fuck!
But thank God for Linux!

Did they give you a reason?
another news to add here https://stacker.news/items/447944/r/Fenix
Getting seen ladsFuck Apple. How a single fucked up company decides what software can I run on my own phone? HOW?
Who the fuck agrees to this?
Used to installed then uninstalled . What happened ?
This sends a very clear message to all developers working on open source: skip MacOS and develop for Linux.
Half a year ago I made the switch from MacOS to Linux.
Move away from MacOS.

Can u just sideload it? Use official stores is for losers
The attack on sovereign self-custody is real. Apple users better download it now if you haven’t already.
Fuck apple. It will not be easy for me but I am switching daily driver to google pixel this fall
Roger that
went back on x just for this.
Apples lack of attention to vetting mobile apps almost cost me my entire stack early in my Bitcoin journey before I knew better.
We dont need Apple’s vetting to install it. All I care about is your signature on the releases. You can still install apps without Apple co-signing we just need to click yes to install in gatekeeper.
Best advertisement for Framework laptop (with Linux), and Fairphone.
Sorry this happened. Texted my friend who is still at Apple 🤞
Man they gotta put Siri back in that gimp box
Open source to the world 🔥
🍻
Done
They're doing that KYC thing for all users soon anyway so it's time to move on. Linux now the only viable option for anyone who isn't a cuck loser.
Will the “apple sparrow wallet” also be removed from the sparrow wallet website?? 👀
Done.
Not safely on MacOS
Team work makes the dream work. I'm sorry you have to go through this, but you have many friends here, Craig!
This is what I’m thinking too. @craigraw please don’t stop development for MacOS if this does happen. Many of us know and others will learn how to install even when the OS warns against it.
Yeah, when installing new versions, mac gives a warning that I'm running something downloaded from the dirty internet and not their clean app store, however it always installs after clicking through. If this were to pass, it'd be different?
OFC I'd want updates, nevertheless.
Craig's signature on the manifest is more valuable than Apple's.
Done.
I don’t have an x account but this is a fucking massive deal 😳 so please ALL HANDS ON DECK to repost the below Sparrow Wallet post 🙏🏼🫡

Done before I read this 🫡
🙏
Update: the App Review Board has confirmed that my Apple Developer account will not be terminated. Sparrow on macOS is safe.
Thank you to everyone who shared and reached out in the past 24 hours - I'm grateful. Credit to Apple for reviewing the appeal and reaching the right outcome - it could have gone another way.
The deeper problem hasn't gone away: apps impersonating Sparrow Wallet are still reaching users and putting their funds at risk. I'll keep working on this, hopefully with Apple's support.
Thanks all.

What KYC thing for Apple?
When you install OSX it's going to make you KYC.
They’re doing this?
Soon
I was going to by an m5 to replace my m1, but holding off to see exact how this KYC thing rolls out
LOL what the hell!?
How it is the only option? FreeBSD is here also
Fairphone hás shitty security
Homebrew
It was your choice to not go and get GrapheneOS
