To be honest this rule is for a reason. Onboarding people without price, then telling them about price certainly will increase your retention, but not the best case from consumer side.
From twitter they say:
“ We've experimented with auto-charging trials in the past and they lead to (1) fewer users trying the product (2) a huge number of refund requests by users who forget to cancel and (3) complete disbelief from those users when we explain that Apple won't allow us to issue refunds.”
By they are also not showing any pricing in the beginning. If they would show try for 15 days free then it is X usd / month. It would be more honest.
- gizmo 6y agoIf the issue is that app developers are not upfront about pricing then the solution is to tell app developers to be more upfront about pricing.
- gumby 6y agoExactly!
- wool_gather 6y agoApple does indeed have rules they enforce about this. Anecdotally, I see quite a bit of chatter/questions about App Store review rejections due to the wording or lack of billing copy, compared to other reasons.
- bluesign 6y agohow they will manage? they will check every day your app behaving correctly? or is it easier to force trials to be on apple subscriptions, and don't have any problem.
