There is already an OFFICIAL iOS App for WooCommerce - this was released as v1.0 back in 2014 already. At a time when "WooCommerce" was still under the WooThemes roof. However, the current version is listed as v1.5 and from Automattic.

I guess they want to release new apps for iOS and Android which have the same core?!? This could also be the reason Jetpack is needed.

However, the requirement of Jetpack IS a deal breaker! This will make the whole app unusable.

Jetpack has so many issues, especially regarding privacy/GDPR and also the required WordPress.com connection. These ARE all deal breakers especially for shop owners!
