It's gobsmacking. I hope Apple come to their senses and pull it pronto.

I did like what the Stonewall guy said (in a Guardian article) - something like "we've been using this app since 8am and I can report it hasn't worked"

I'm quite happy as I am thanks. I definitely don't need "curing".
Hopefully Apple will remove it, though it should never have gotten through in the first place!

Isn't Apple's acting CEO described as " "most powerful gay man in Silicon Valley"?

YANBU hideous app by some stupid Christian group and I say that as a Christian. These nutters don't speak for me.
Can't believe Apple let it through.

Bump for the petition link. At least nobody thinks IABU now DaftPunk's gone.

YABU - to be shocked that is - things like it are rife - kids are pasting 'you're sooo GAY' all over FB - seems to be acceptable to be homophobic again. I think society is going backwards in many ways. Apple should be ashamed of themselves.
