How is anyone surprised? Parent bought iPad, parent linked card, child uses payment method they are not authorised to use, app or not doesn't make a difference.
- wyldfire 6y agoIt could be more like: (1) ten years ago, parent made an icloud account, (2) six years ago, child is born, (3) five years ago, credit card is added to icloud account to buy music or movies, (4) six months ago ipad is purchased, (5) child uses a game .... I think it's fair for the parent to be surprised. I think it's fair for them to ask apple and/or the app developer to refund it. Apple's app store monopoly requires that they be a better steward for their users. If regulation leverage were applied, app stores could compete in fraud detection algorithms. Instead, they're motivated to look the other way.
