The reason the app didn't work when you downloaded it is because of Apple's own policies. Also: https://youdownloadtheappanditdoesntwork.com https://youdownloa

  And BaseCamp was free to offer in app purchases at a 43% markup to make up for the 30% cut. BaseCamp is not a non profit anymore than Apple is.

    Can you? I am pretty sure that the rules about IAP make it very clear you have to charge the same price on and off the app store.

      No it doesn’t. In fact, when Spotify was still allowing in app purchases, they did exactly this. https://www.theverge.com/2015/7/8/8913105/spotify-apple-app-store-email https://www.theverge.com/2015/7/8/8913105/spotify-apple-app-...

      That was Apple's initial attempt, but the pushback was fast and furious. Spotify, especially, led the charge that this was ridiculous and Apple relented pretty quickly, IIRC. Now you can charge more to cover their 30%.
