Apple reverses course: app must pay 30% App Store fee on tips sent to teachers

Again, why do you keep bringing up personal experiences as a benchmark? It’s completely irrelevant. We are talking about a store with 100s of millions of users, you’re just 1. How about checking what apps are the most downloaded for a start to get an idea what people actually want in an app.

Customers, users… just interchangeable terms to mean the same thing. The whole issue is this particular developer does not build fully featured apps with Apple as they would take too much money out of any generated income (if any). So yeah, this is just about money.

I think I have to requote the part I responded to

> People want fully featured apps, not companion apps

I gave multiple example on why this is false. I thought one example was enough to prove something is false, but okay.

Orwin I advice not engaging further as you'll waste your time. I don't think your parent commenter is interested in a honest debate.

From my experience in a sibling discussion.

Their language is emotional and loaded, and include ad hominem attacks.

Perhaps they are going through some difficult times or something.
