Any app requests must conform with the following rules to be added.
- Do not include any copyrighted content that you don't have the rights to use (piracy)
- Loading copyrighted assets externally from the SD card is fine as long as it's not shipped with the application, whether from the script or in the app itself
- This includes apps developed with Unity, as Unity for 3DS can only legally be acquired by signing an NDA that prevents you from developing homebrew
- The app should not be focused around NSFW content
- If it does have NSFW content in it as a minor part, then it should be clearly labeled as such
- There must be some description of what the app does, whether in the README or submitted app description
- Must have some functionality, not just a testing app
These are not strict requirements, but are recommended.
- Make the source code be publically accessible
- Use GitHub Releases for app downloads, this makes update tracking and downloads much easier
- Bitbucket is also supported, but not as well, and other sites can be added if they have a good API for it
- Have a place for public discussion of your app (GitHub Discussions, GBAtemp, Discord server, etc)
- If a online service component exists, try to make it open source and allow the URL which the apps connects with to be changed, in case the service goes down
