Apple raises prices Apps

The Cupertino company has seen rising rates of applications, justifying itself with the decline of the euro against the dollar.

 Inflation wins the App Store. Thursday night, Apple revealed a new pricing structure. The minimum price rises from 0.79 euro to 0.89 euro, an increase of 13%. All other prizes were also revised upwards (see chart below).

It is the same for extensions sold within the software ("in-app purchase") and set up subscriptions for content publishers, such as newspapers.

As a reminder this is not the developers set the price for their apps, but Apple completely defines its gate.

The Cupertino company also raid 30% of each sale in the Store. This price increase is very juicy for the manufacturer, but also for developers, however, receive a few cents more on each sale.

In a very brief statement, Apple justifies this increase in rates by the decline of the euro against the dollar, indicating that these changes also concern the Danish krone and the Mexican peso.
