Yes, got the email today. Breaking the psychological € barriers (0,99, 1,99, etc) may in the end result in less revenue for them (not to mention for us, developers). We'll see..
Exchange rates, schmexchange rates!
The UK price increases have definitely dampened my app buying - I used to buy at least one app per week. So far this year I've bought three.
For me the disappearance of the 'worth a punt for a fiver' deals, less sales, and more apps in the twenty quid bracket have terrified my wallet into hiding.
Before buying I now have to be completely sure that a. the app does what I think it does (no decent vids, no purchase), b. it's by a developer committed to updates and support, c. I will actually use the thing and don't already have an app that can do a similar job and d. Mrs Monzo doesn't find out.
I am going through this right now....I have been deliberating for the last 2 days about spending £20 on Future Drummer because it has MIDi out.....do I really need a jam feature (I could easily download premade MIDI loops to get plenty of MIDI Drum loops) that does MIDI out...and if I do, is it worth £20 to me ?
I'm not knocking the price, £20 is very cheap for a drum machine in comparison to hardware.....just that the price increases are slowing down app purchases, and it isn't the dev's who are getting the benefit of the rise
Definitely. Even though I was buying four or more apps a month over the last few years, my spending was still under £30. 75% of those I'd never open again but it didn't matter as I'd had half an hour of fun on a dull Friday night mucking about with them. Now that same bunch of purchases could easily top £100 per month - a whopping £1200 per year, and I just can't afford it. Even if I could I'm not that confident in the future of the platform to make such a big investment in it.
Shame for the devs who now don't get my money, but at least I'm putting more effort into using the ones I already have.
And don't forget to read the end of the new:
"Apple's App Store price hike in Denmark, Mexico, and countries that use the Euro comes just a few days after Apple announced a significant decrease in its affiliate program commission rate. Sites linking to the App Store used to receive a 7 percent cut when someone purchased an app, but that number will drop to 2.5 percent next week, impacting many websites that rely on App Store commissions."
It seems like Apple need more money. Poor boys.
Remember all those anti-Brexit people on this list blaming Brexit voters for Britisch app store price hike. Well it proves that staying in de EU would have also affected the app prices. Seems Apple always find excuses to make things more expensive. Of course quite interesting this time because dollar and euro exchange rates are quite stable for a while.
By the way in 2012 apps costed 0.79 euro in the EU, 5 years later and we pay for the same app 1.09. That is a price increase of nearly 40% (38% to be exactly) in 5 years time.
Ya just had to post that right before lunchtime here, didn't ya? Lucky for me (and my cholesterol) I'm feeling too lazy to trek on down to Lower Greenville where the decent Dallas Cajun joints are at. But dangit to blazes if that doesn't look darn good...
hehehe, I've never had one, only ever seen them on Diners,Drive-ins and Dives on tv here in the UK
When this happened in the uk I quickly purchased some apps from my wish list and the ones left are still there today. I guess the price hike slowed down my purchasing.
I still bought LayR
The best are next door in Louisiana, but there are plenty of spots here in the Great State (and right here in Dallas) for some mighty fine po' boys. I'd ship ya one, but I doubt it would travel well...
I'm probably one of those anti Brexit people you mention.
The UK have had three increases in the last couple of years:
VAT (20%) added
Exchange rate (Brexit adjustment due to falling pound vs dollar)
And Apples 'rounding up' of prices
Most apps are double what they used to be, and some, like Gadget at forty quid, would be totally out of my budget now.
Greed.
It probably wouldn't, but thanks for the thought anyway
Who decides the price of an app in the first place? Perhaps I'm being naive, but can't developers just reduce the price of their app if they want to? They too must realise that they lose the impulse buyers which seems to be most of us. I'm actually spending less than I ever have since the price hikes by only buying what I really need.
I want to support developers but I can't help but think that I am only really supporting Apple by accepting the price hikes for impulse buys.
Apparently coffee's gone up at Costa in the UK, to keep in line with app's prices.
Why Apple cards cost 15€ if the app cost 14,99? Another cent to Cook's pocket.
The base price is in dollars and Apple adjust it in other countries based upon the exchange rate. You're buying in dollars, but Apple's handing the exchange rate for you. Interesting to see if prices go down when exchange rates reverse..
If you're in the UK, the current prices are going to look like a bargain compared to what will happen when you leave the EU...
Yep
Why don't we wait and see... unless you're psychic and or can predict the future all you can do is guess.
All this scaremongering is getting boring!
If EU and UK don't find common ground in the negotiations both will cry bitter tears after brexit.
If people of the planet don't wake up soon enough we're all gonna get sold without even noticing it.
Soz for OT takeover.
The problem with this argument is that it isn't true at all. Before the random price hike the app store used to consider 1 dollar as 62 Indian rupees. At the time 1 usd was actually 60. So it was relatively close to the actual exchange rate.
But when they hiked the prices for most markets they randomly decided that 1 usd = 80rs. When the actual market value at the time was 67. Currently the value is 64.5 but it's still listing as 80. Which is an exorbitant increase compared to the exchange rate
It is still cheap compared to PC software. You don't need to buy every new app released and could help to only buy apps you really like/need. I'm more worried about fuel prices and health insurance which is almost unpayable these days.
With May and Johnson in charge, I don't think you need a crystal ball to predict things aren't going to get better. I doubt you could find two worse candidates for the important roles they've been given. Maybe a couple of pissed racist tramps.
The pound has bombed since the Brexit vote, stuff costs more already. Regardless of what's going to happen it's worse now, and the majority of experts (I know their opinions aren't popular in this 'post truth' World we live in now) predict post Brexit Britain will be a tougher place than the old one. Not just financially - the removal of human and workers rights, environmental protection, already stressed hospitals struggling to recruit staff from overseas due to new tougher immigration control, the rise of racist attacks. The list goes on.
I'm an old fart so I won't have to put up with it too long, but it's those young people I feel sorry for. There was a joy and freedom in being part of a bigger World, and that's being closed down. The barriers are going up - mentally and physically.
This does not make any sense to me at all. Are you basically saying, that Apple can fuck with the prices, as long as apps are cheaper than desktop software? Or we can just buy fewer apps? The problem is I see it, is that Apple has a monopoly here, and these "corrections" will damage the industry, primarily the devs. Looking forward to see, whether we will se "corrections" if $ rates goes down again at some point?
Btw, your worries about prices on health insurance suggests to me that you live in the USA, meaning that you will not be affected? Correct me if I'm wrong.
Im from the Netherlands. You already knew Apple does whatever it likes before you bought an iOS device. I didn't knew this would also affect the devs for less profit, but trying to say even if prices go up a bit, it's still cheap for what you get.
@proto Sry, i stand corrected about your origin. Actually this was out of order on my side.
Less app sales equals less revenue for devs. Is my point.
I agree and also would love to see devs get more profit instead of apple.
Can't comment on India, but when this has happened in other countries its because the App store had to start paying sales taxes/import taxes. App store prices in the US exclude sales tax.
It's possible that India's different, but every time I've looked at this, this has basically explained the variation in prices.
Perhaps, but I knew
Not true. The only country that will be significantly affected is Germany, and their industrial sector has been quite clear that they don't want the UK to have special treatment. I don't think the British (except those who read the financial press) have any idea how much the Tories have angered the Europeans, and the Germans in particular.
The pound is worth less because Foreign Direct Investment into the UK has slowed down significantly, and because investors are starting to liquidate their existing British assets and move them abroad. Prior to Brexit Britain was also seen as a safe place to park assets by foreigners. That belief has changed. Last year's currency adjustment was initially caused by hot money leaving.
The traders faking shorts thing is impossible btw. Traders are able to manipulate currencies in the short term only when a currency is overvalued (UK in the ERM) and supported by the central bank, or to a lesser degree when it is undervalued (Switzerland during the crisis) and supported by the central bank. But it's a short term tool that is ruinously expensive over the medium to long term. Traders make money out of price movements, once the currency has moved there would be no reason to maintain short positions in the market.
Britain's strongest exports are in services and foreign manufacturing based in the UK. Services will be heavily hit by leaving the EU - everyone in that sector knows this and has been preparing for this. Trade deals for services are extremely difficult to set up, not that the UK has anyone at this point who even knows how to create a trade deal. Foreign manufacturing will be hit by EU tarifs, and so will move to E. Europe, Spain, Portugal. Domestic manufacturing in the UK is basically dead. This means that UK exports, already quite low, will be hit further. So the currency will fall further.
it's all just trash talk,only you know the facts?
