I actually added that after most of the price discussion (which now seems to have been voted to the bottom of the thread). I would really like to be able to say "pay as much as you want", but unfortunately the App Store doesn't support that. Overall, my goal is not to make a ton of money here. I just want to make as much as people want to give me, with other ways to get it if I don't.
(Again, though, I'm new to this: I'll definitely take your advice for the future, if I do another "open source but paid" app.)
- swombat 15y agoLol... Oh well, in that case, I guess I'll fall back on the trusted Reddit meme: Haters will be hatin'.
- MaysonL 15y agoI wonder: would Apple allow you to submit a few different copies of the app, with different prices?
- wahnfrieden 15y agoNo. Not unless they had different feature sets.
- ralfd 15y agoThey did at least once. I used to use an App called Zuginfo which was splitted into a normal free and a "Donation" version which was advertised to further development. (This app by an Indie was later killed by Deutsche Bahn.)
- PascalW 15y agoMaybe you could do this with in-app purchases. Make the app free and include different items that people can buy for different prices. I'm not sure what that items should be, but I'm sure you can figure out something.
- sovande 15y ago> I just want to make as much as people want to give me The usual way to do this is to release the app for free and put a (PayPal) donate button on your page...
