Apple has pulled the Exodus International app from their iTunes App Store.
Recently, Jeff Buchanan, Exodus International’s Senior Director of Church Equipping & Student Ministries, told The Christian Post, “In no way shape or form is our message about trying to cure or do we try to promote that type of methodology or message… This is a label (gay cure app) that has been put forth by opponents to the application to serve as propaganda in order to stigmatize and really label the application in a false way and provoking a response such as you are seeing with the application.”
Katherine T. Phan reports for The Christian Post, “Over 107,477 people have petitioned Apple to remove the Exodus app from the iTunes store. The petition, launched by Truth Wins Out, a LGBT rights group, calls Exodus’ message ‘hateful’ and ‘bigoted.’ On Monday, Truth Wins Out, whose name is a play on words of Exodus’ Love Won Out conferences, urged more people to sign its petition.”
In addition to releasing a video on why Apple should remove the app, the LGBT rights group also pledged to continue pressuring Apple until the app is removed, even promising to hold a press conference featuring victims of ‘ex-gay’ programs in front of the company’s offices if their demands are not met,” Phan reports. “We are disheartened at the fact that there are activists who are rising up to silence our voice on the Exodus iTunes platform,” said Buchanan. “We want to ask that there would be fair and equal representation of religious belief on this platform as is already existing. We would like the spirit of diversity and tolerance that is so valued within the LGBT community.”

There is also an application out there to cure people from being Apple customers:
it’s called Android.
This spirit doesn't extend to ex-gays, I guess.
Gay is like being a Muzzie. You are not allowed to quit.
Funny you should put it that way. I met a Freeper in DC last weekend (while counter-protesting the Code Pinkos) who got an iPhone because she was very dissatisfied with her Android phone.
Goes both ways...
May the person(s) responsible reverse the decision or fall in the pit they have dug.
May the furor over this decision be far greater than the other furor.
Strong and bitter actions indicate a weak case. There must be something about “homosexuality” the gay mafia is trying to hide. Truth be told, “homophobia” is actually the fear of the truth about homosexuality getting out. Let not the story of homosexuality be told by those who are in the death grip of its addictive and self-destructive nature. Censorship will not stand. You cannot censor liberty from the bondage of homosexuality. Sorry, get used to the “ex-gay” movement. It is not only right but it is a civil-right.
