Freemium is really hard to get right, but Apple is really pushing everyone that direction. The changes in the search results over the last few months have heavily favored free apps. I just tried a free promotion in one of my apps, and sadly didn't take enough advantage of it. I just added ads, and didn't worry about adding an IAP to get rid of them as I was planning on going right back to paid (only showing ads to free users). Sadly I got quite few bad reviews for the ads being "too intrusive" (only 2 ads in the whole app, 1 popup and 1 interstitial, i think they were just too close together in the workflow). I think if I had the IAP there would have been less excuse to give a bad review. Don't like ads, then you should give me money. That being said, I made more money both yesterday and today each than I did in the last month of it being paid. It's also showing up significantly higher in the rankings after 11k downloads instead of a couple paid downloads.
