Easy solution: the app only redirects you to the website via browser intent.

Get this, they don't allow that either. There are multiple clips from LTT talking about dumb things like this that Apple doesn't allow

From my understanding, thats also very much not allowed on the app store, and is something they check for.

That is no good with Apple policy.

App cannot tell user that they get better deal anywhere.

So wait, Apple effectively mandates that users of their store lie to their users? Wonder if that's something that can be tackled legally.
