You will get your app rejected if you attempt to repurpose buttons on the iPhone. Unity has no functionality for this anyway.

Well, what if you're writing the app for yourself - and on the Android, where Unity Remote is not yet available. Being able to access the physical buttons are useful debug input's even if it's not final deploy.

Yeah, I was waiting for someone to bring that up...as mentioned in that article, "The approval of Quick Snap appears to have been an error by an Apple reviewer." It's against their policies, so while you can sometimes sneak stuff into the store that normally gets rejected, don't count on it....

...And indeed that app has been yanked from the store.
