Directory Guidelines

Pinoy App exists to celebrate real products built by Filipino makers. These guidelines keep the directory useful for everyone — makers, testers, and folks just browsing for their next favorite app.

What gets listed

• check_circleApps built by Filipino makers or teams — solo devs, barkada side projects, and startups are all welcome.
• check_circleA working product people can actually try. Waitlists are fine; vaporware is not.
• check_circleYour own work. You must own the app or have permission from the team to submit it.

Quality bar

• check_circleNo scams, thin clones, or anything that ships malware. One strike and the listing is gone.
• check_circleClaims must be accurate — describe what your app does today, not what it might do someday.
• check_circleListing content (name, tagline, screenshots) should be family-friendly. Titos and titas browse here too.

Voting and comments

• arrow_rightNo vote rings, bots, or paid upvotes. Earned upvotes mean more anyway.
• arrow_rightBe constructive in comments. Honest critique helps makers grow; pile-ons do not.
• arrow_rightDisclose if you are reviewing your own app or a friend's. It builds trust.

Enforcement

Listings that violate these guidelines may be edited or delisted, and repeat offenders can lose posting privileges. If you think we got it wrong, we're human — appeal through the contact page and we'll take a second look.
