I find that devs have a far harder time dealing with apple's policies and fees than with android's fragmentation. One particular case is one startup where all the people involved use iphones but they moved to android to launch their app because they couldn't afford the complications of doing it for iphone, which was originally their plan.
I can find a way through a code problem, but when it comes to bureaucracy sometimes there is no alternative, or they shut it down the moment you find it.
- JTon 13y agoCan you elaborate on the bureaucratic complications said startup faced?
- threeseed 13y agoApple's fees are $99/year which is hardly prohibitive. And I doubt you would see any difference between Apple's bureaucracy and Google's. Anytime you try and embarrass the company, try and take money away from them or be anti-user then of course you will have problems.
