The iOS app Gridlee, a port of a MAME game from 1982, turns out to be a full emulator to accommodate. Apple weert emulators normally from the App Store, but in this case, the disguise worked.

Emulators on iOS devices are generally reserved for users with gejailbreakte iPods, iPads and iPhones. Apple weert emulatorsoftware from the official app-store, because the illegal use of roms in the hand could work. Gridlee is probably due to the control go up, because the app is a regular game seems to be. Under the hood, however, shows a fully-functioning version of MAME4iOS 1.3 Reloaded to run. Users can, with the help of software that can gain access to the iOS file structure zipped MAME-roms to add the app. Gridlee is functioning then just as the emulator for MAME games.

Gridlee is an arcade game from 1982, which ultimately was never released. With the permission of the developers, there is now an iOS app of the game. It is expected that Apple will soon have the game delete it, because the emulator functionality does not meet the conditions that Apple imposes on apps in the App Store. Apple is generally very strict with the admission of emulators. A previously blocked emulator for the Commodore 64 is, after a relaxation of the rules allowed, but game emulators are still out of the question.
