So, what exactly determines whether something is a widget or not?


The quote is "We are not allowing apps that create their own desktops". So, It might be safe if your app didn't display all the system indicators that the iPad normally shows on the desktop (battery, signal, time).

I am at a real loss on this one. It would seem to indicate something coming, but it just seems odd.


That's my question. I'm not sure I even understand what apps would be considered widget-like.
