They have +20M devs paying $100 per year.
- MichaelApproved 6y agoWow, 20 million developers paying $100. I had no idea it was that high. So they make $2 billion a year in just dev fees? Do you have a source for that?
- pier25 6y agoIt was 20M in 2018, so it's probably more now: https://techcrunch.com/2018/06/04/app-store-hits-20m-registered-developers-at-100b-in-revenues-500m-visitors-per-week/ https://techcrunch.com/2018/06/04/app-store-hits-20m-registe...
- jsjohnst 6y agoRegistered developer != paying developer. Think about how many iOS developers a company has, they don’t pay $99/yr for each one, the company instead pays that once (usually) for all of them.
