- bmarquez 4y agoYeah apps for pilots also came to mind, though I took a look and ForeFlight was $400/year on the iOS store, not a one-time fee.
- sneak 4y agoWhy charge $1000 once when you can charge $400 six times? I refuse to use apps like this. None of my Apple IDs have payment information associated with them.
- ralmidani 4y agoI would imagine any medical app/ERP/etc. would have creative ways to get users to not make a one-time purchase via the App Store. Although certain interpretations of the rules might mean they have to offer App Store signup as an option.
- scarface74 4y agoI’m not aware of many apps like those that aren’t done via a B2B licensing agreement outside of the App Store.
- blowski 4y agoEarly on, I remember there being a tactic for apps where the owner wants them to be findable in the App Store, but doesn't want any new buyers, they set the price to $10K. But these days, I think the most expensive apps are $1K - app.cash, vueCAD Pro and Cyber Tuner.
