Is that true? I thought it is one app store, they just filter the content according to your region, language, etc. After all I don't have to install another app store app (unlike Amazon shopping which has different apps for different regions) when I go to another country.
- sumuyuda 3y agoYou are correct in that you don’t have to install a separate front end app, but the apps are segregated on the backend. Apps are region locked creating different versions of the AppStore. Plenty developers only release their app on a specific region.
- perryizgr8 3y ago> but the apps are segregated on the backend This is kind of subjective isn't it then? I can argue that any app that shows different content to different users is actually a separate app for each user, since all the data is "segregated in the backend". IMO the proper measure of this has to be the user-facing actual app. Not some abstract concept of an app in the backend.
