I would be happy to pay more for an app by using the Apple store than using a side loaded version. I like being able to cancel subscriptions without having to email or call someone.
- agloe_dreams 3y agoTwo things: 1: Apple allowing third party stores means that those who only pick the third party store would lose you as a customer. That is how competition should work. You should have that choice. That is it working correctly. 2: In the US, at least, that is nearly at it's end. In California, it is illegal for a company to not allow you to cancel the same way you signed up.
- synetic 3y agoLet’s flip it around a bit. Apple not allowing developers to make side loaded apps means that those who don’t like this situation don’t have to develop mobile apps. It just means those developers lose mobile customers. That’s how competition works. Having a single app store that enforced policies brings consumers peace of mind. I don’t think it’s worthwhile to change that. What will happen is that bad actors will end up having an easier time engaging in shenanigans.
