Consider that you have a business, and need to hire a certified accountant. You put out in a nationally available newspaper classified ad that you are looking for such a person with some contact information, but stress that only qualified persons with at least a bachelors degree in accounting need apply.
Next morning you discover to your dismay that your HR department has been overwhelmed with calls and emails in the hundreds of thousands, because people ignored your prerequisites, and everyone from housewives with no degree to gardeners and janitors filled out applications or called directly. This is something like what Apple is up against. It's true that at first Apple wanted volume. Now, not so much. One could say the early bird gets the worm. Had this app been developed in the first 6 months of the app store going online, I bet they would have snatched it up right away.
