Has anyone had any experience using Ionic Deploy in an app for IOS?

I was just reviewing the app review guidelines, and came across the following:

**_2.7 Apps that download code in any way or form will be rejected_**

So if you use Ionic Deploy, it seems your app woudl be rejected. Has anyone had any experience, and/or am I missing something?

Apple has an exception for “scripts” running in webkit as long as the main functionality doesn’t change after the update.

This is functionality is allowed, and a benefit hybrid apps have over native apps. At PhoneGap Day EU 2015 Simon MacDonald gave a presentation about ‘contentsync plugin’ which allows you to auto update your app: [https://github.com/phonegap/phonegap-plugin-contentsync](https://github.com/phonegap/phonegap-plugin-contentsync)
