Apparently Apple announced this 6 months ago, and is now enforcing it. From what I've seen, some templated apps are fine, but most are garbage that obscures real software in the App Store. I wonder if graphical assets will be affected, or if they will be looking at code. A lot of indie developers buy graphical assets for otherwise unique apps.
Report: Apple cracking down on template applications, giving developers January 1 deadline
"Apple has been working diligently over the last year to clean up the App Store and rid it of spam and clone applications. A new report from TechCrunch, however, outlines the effect that Apple’s newfound efforts are having on apps built around templates…
The report explains that Apple is cracking down on applications that are built from a “commercialized template or app generation service.” While Apple had included new rules about these types of apps following WWDC in June, only now is it starting to crack down.
Apple has been sending emails to companies taking advantage of templates, telling them that any new applications will be rejected. It’s unclear, however, what approach Apple will take to existing applications. TechCrunch explains that some developers have been able to continue to update their apps, but now fear that Apple could change its tone at any point."
