Apple rejects Hey for second time, threatens removal from App Store

I wonder if it would satisfy Apple if they offered an in-app subscription price at something like 10,000% markup? Eg, something nobody would sign up for. But the option would indeed be there...

People would realize that an email app could not cost that much, and so would look to sign up on the website.

That is actually a very decent idea. Charge it at $9999/ Yr.

I wonder if that would work.

Or bury the subscription so far in the menu that no one would ever find it?

I think that probably violates Apple's guidelines. But I'm not sure how Apple can complain about price, given there are apps that cost $1000 or more.
