- bitpush 1y agoWhat apple store servers comes into the picture when I use my apps (uber, lyft, amazon, candycrush ..) on a daily basis? I understand a one time fee ($99 or something) for hosting the app and allowing downloads, but why does Apple get an ongoing 30% cut?

They also provide cloud storage for core dumps and other crash logs, persistent iCloud storage for user data, and remote build pipelines. That’s just off the top of my head. And of course the absolutely massive SDK that makes it easy to build all these apps natively without rolling your own computer vision framework or audio processing engine.
