Why would this be a problem? If your app costs a certain amount, Apple gives you your 70 percent cut when anybody buys it, regardless of what device it runs on.

So the fact that iPhone apps will now run on the iPad as well seems like a good thing for developers.
- wmf 17y agoThe issue is: If one customer has an iPhone and an iPad, do they have to buy two copies of an app or can they buy one copy and install it twice? Do app developers have any choice about this? IIRC in the past Apple retroactively changed the terms on music after it had been sold (usually for the better, so customers didn't complain).
- allenbrunson 17y agoBased on my experience with the iPhone and Apple, both as a developer and a customer, I'd bet a lot of money that a person who has bought an app for their iPhone will also be able to run it on their iPad without paying for it again. Right now, I'm paying for two iPhones on one AT&T account, one for me, one for a friend. If I buy an app from the app store, it will run on both phones without me having to pay for it twice.
