The ‘Me So Holy’ app for Apple’s iPhone has recently been deemed too devilish to be put on your iPhone. The application lets its users upload a religious figure of their choosing and then place a photo of themselves into the photo—instantly transforming their photo into a saintly version of themselves.
The program was made in good fun; however, apparently the ‘Me So Holy’ iPhone app wasn’t funny to the Apple team, who found it too offensive for sale.
