As Apple gears up for WWDC, developers are questioning why Apple needs to take a 30% commission on in-app purchases.
As Apple gears up for WWDC, software developers are questioning why Apple needs to take a 30% commission on in-app purchases.
"The App Store 30% tax is a massive pain and severely limits our profitability and long-term viability as a business," said one start-up executive who wished to remain anonymous as they're concerned about repercussions from Apple. Some developers have also criticized Apple's app review process, saying it lacks transparency. In order for developers to update apps that run on Apple's products, an Apple employee must review them first.
They added: "What doesn't feel fair is Apple curates the App Store, so if you're trending and charting you still may not be visible unless they want you to."Last week, the European Commission, the executive arm of the EU, announced that it has opened an antitrust investigation into Apple's App Store practices.
