Free mobile games work via whales subsidizing free users. It may be more than the median user, but it's less than the average spend per user.
- dagmx 11mo agoThe key part is “free to play” These would not be free to play. They would have an up front cost beyond what the free users would be paying otherwise.
- charcircuit 11mo agoIt could still be free to play. Free users would be subsidized by paying users and / or by watching ads.
- dagmx 11mo agoPaying users to use your app is against the App Store rules, I’m pretty sure.
- charcircuit 11mo agoThe term "paying users" referring to users that are paying the app developer as opposed to those who play for free. And with the money they earn from those users they are able to subsidize the cost of acquiring more users which hopefully acquires another paying user to continue the cycle.
