- signal11 8y agoThe Amazon store app doesn't sell anything which might compete with iBooks or the iTunes store, i.e. - no digital books, music or movies. In my other comment on this thread I've pointed out how this creates hilariously bad UX for iOS users.
- matwood 8y agoAs I edited above, it looks like Amazon changed this (or maybe it was always like that since I always use the website). According the Apple documentation though, a user should be allowed to bypass IAP for purchases that will be consumed outside the application. See: https://developer.apple.com/app-store/review/guidelines/#in-app-purchase https://developer.apple.com/app-store/review/guidelines/#in-... https://developer.apple.com/app-store/review/guidelines/#physical-goods-and-services https://developer.apple.com/app-store/review/guidelines/#phy... Admittedly it has been a few years since I was deeply in iOS development dealing with this.
