We converted our app to using webview, but still uses local device
contacts etc...for the app. Apple rejected it (12:3 Collection of web
links, clippings etc...) and I have it in review, however the exact
same app but with local files was approved. Does anyone have any
advice on dealing with the review board on this type of issue? Our
apps cannot be just web apps as they are for business clients and
security is a key.
So what you are saying is if you package all the files onto the device the app is approved. However, if you try to load the resources remotely Apple rejects it?

Its fine, we can of course load it on the device, but the updates are slower as a result to this approach. we will go this route if the current route is failing.
Thanks anyway. James F.

What I've seen is Apple will reject you if the majority of your application (i.e. code) is hosted remotely. Retrieving data from a remote server is okay.

By code you don't mean html content? I.e. my app is a jQueryMobile
based app with lots of pages and about 80% of the pages pull their
content (goes in to the <dcontent> tags for that page) from external
html pages (that we can edit on our own server) as a lot of the
content needs regular updating. This is ok? So the content is code as
such as it's html code.
A good example might be the images on the external pages...they have
an onLoad function, but the code for that function is pre-built in to
the app (refreshes the scrollbar).

I'm not the Apple App Store expert but from what I understand:
Content: Images, Audio, HTML is okay Code: JavaScript is bad
The other thing you have to be careful of is not keeping too much content in the cloud as Apple could just reject your app saying it does not provide any additional benefit from a web site.

The only code that I get via remote JS is google web font and google maps api. And I think that I cann't insert it into my app.

In this case nothing that use mainly google maps provide any additional benefit from a web site. Like "cibando" app. Or any rss reader.
However thanks.
