I’ve come across an ad for a game which shows a man hitting his wife and then shows her in hospital where you are supposed to treat her. How do I report this as inappropriate? Promoting violence against women.
iPhone 11, iOS 16
unfortunately, Apple doesn’t care. I’ve been reporting ads for over a year and it’s never changed anything until I started rating apps at one star and leaving scathing comments to the app developers. Now do I think it’s fair that they are getting dinged not exactly however, they are the only ones who can control this within the game how that works exactly I don’t know but clearly it’s made a difference because when there’s a consistent presence of these reviews on the games it changes, so if you have a game that you love to give to your kids, do you know other people who are having the same challenge or may not even realize that there’s this issue because they’re not paying enough attention to what their kids are seeing when they’re on their phones inform them and then start reporting it to the developer. Trust me, they don’t want the one star reviews. Again, I don’t say this is fair. I don’t know how to get apples attention because they clearly have to know about it because somebody had to approve the ad to start with. Anyway good luck.
