The "BeautyMeter" app, produced by developers Funnymals, shows pictures of women and men in various states of undress and featured a picture of a topless and partially bottomless 15-year-old female, ultimately triggering the removal of the application.

The app featured photos rating by giving stars based on face, body and clothes criteria.

Recently, Apple banned the first iPhone porn "Hottest Girl" App which was approved and then later removed because it featured pictures of topless women.

Hottest Girl and BeautyMeter app did not include nude pictures when it was first approved by Apple.
