What Are the Design and Usability Requirements for Publishing an App?

All applications, games, or other services that use Vanelton Media's services and products must meet a strict standard of visual quality and usability. This applies broadly, but is especially strict for anything published on the AppHub Store.

Under no circumstances does Vanelton Media allow the publication of:

  • Unfinished or incomplete apps and games.
  • Defective software that doesn't function as described.
  • Anything containing malware.
  • Low-quality games that don't meet baseline usability expectations.

If you're preparing to submit something, it's worth testing it thoroughly and polishing the core experience before requesting review — see How does the approval process for new apps and games work? for what happens after you publish.
