Apple creates 'explicit' category for App Store

Most iPhone users haven't been able to utilize the device to it's fullest potential in recent days, thanks to Apple's decision of removing/banning all those adult apps.

But a recent development in the App Store process indicates that Apple has plans to introduce a new 'Explicit' category to the App Store which shall serve as the home for all adult and sex-related apps. Though, the category has already been pushed to the developers in the iTunes Connect App submission form, it still has time before it makes an appearance on the iTunes App Store.

If one can see it right, this is a clear indication that Apple takes the potential of adult-apps on the iPhone very seriously in terms of revenue as well as popularity and is providing a chance for developers to add their adult-apps on the App Store, later on for which parental controls may be provided.

Too early to wish for Christmas already, but if Apple finally manages to launch the 'Explicit' category in the App Store for users, it would definitely cheer up some of the desperate souls.
