The article mentions by name (and description) several of the restaurants this guy owns. Pretty obviously he’s doing it for publicity for his existing businesses. His entire premise rests on Apple accepting his keyboard app in the app store, but Apple doesn’t allow apps like different keyboards and probably won’t anytime soon.
And then the listings for the Android app are funny - there are several different versions (for no apparent reason) and they all have 5-star reviews from the same user, and almost nobody has downloaded them.
This guy might be a good restauranteur (who knows), but this is a complete misstep.
All that aside, the article refers to twitter users as “correspondents” - I like that.
