Are the kids wrong?
When I look at my app’s stats, Android users are worse in every way.
More expensive to develop for, pay less or none at all, and their halo effect is sometimes negative: they might word-of-mouth my app to more Android users instead of more iOS users.
- williamscales 4y agoAll I can say is that there are dozens of us! who pay for Android apps. > pay less or none at all Maybe just make the app paid only?
- denismurphy 4y ago> More expensive to develop for As iOS developer i disagree, You can develop android app on any platform that support JDK you pay a one-time registration fee of €25, Google Play is faster at approving apps (anecdotal evidence from working on team that support both iOS and Android) iOS apps have to be compiled on recent Mac with latest version of macOS, you pay a yearly fee of €100 and AppStore review process is more in-dept especially for new apps
- lupire 4y agoNot saying Apple deserves the $100, am saying that's not the expensive part of app dev.
- vachina 4y ago> pay less or none at all Maybe because there is always a free alternative that is better than yours. Whereas iOS users only has the App Store, and if they don’t pay they don’t get app.
- samatman 4y agoKeep telling yourself a paycheck has no affect on app quality if it makes you feel better.
- candiodari 4y agoYou can make everyone equal (and thereby eliminate "status") by making everyone worse off. For a lot of things that's exactly the choice society makes.
