If anyone genuinely can't save up $2.99 over 8 weeks I will gift them the app.
Not in the EU.
It's EU law to offer refund within 14 days, no questions asked.
This and you can choose the reason „accidentally“ bought. So...
This looks brilliant, looking forward to trying it out whilst in self imposed isolation !
I’m all in.
This is neat. I don't think it's a bad idea. It's not like trying to register for college classes when you're up at like 12am and scrambling to try to lock in all your classes and whuppppps it's 12:10 and now you're taking fitness walking instead of that rad ass rock climbing elective.
I think most importantly, @analog_matt , if this has re-invigorated your desire to code and work on these kinds of projects, that's what's key. It's a neat idea, 8 weeks is more than enough time to get it together AND you've stated anyone hard up can just reach out. It's a win win win (c) Michael Scott.
Agreed. I apologize if my previous comment was a bit callous, just being straight-up about it. Its hard being a small developer shop for sure. I just have enough nagging anxiety in my life, don't need app FOMO ontop of it.
Just checked which of my apps are AudioKit apps and they’re all in my preferred set, so I’m quite excited about this now.
My big objection was that only a select few were being invited to purchase the app via an invitation email. That seems not to be true. Which is a relief.
The narrow time frame of availability, that definitely creates a sense of urgency. It's basically a sale window.

Not to get super political but American everything is weird..
Yeah, but you like the cheeseburgers, right? And jazz?
@analog_matt
So, I had some time to think it through. It's really cool that you're finding a way to make something cool and exclusive.
Here's some ideas that came to mind:
1. App unlock when you connect a special device (Similar to how Cubasis 2 LE unlocked when I connected my UD-BT01 bluetooth adapter). The app existed, but it was a fun surprise for someone like me who couldn’t afford it to find a way to get it.
2. Making a true iOS Synth (Think AKAI MPK Mini size keyboard & drumpad combi + inbuilt iPhone/iPad + Audio in/out interface+ USB Hub). Would have a few exclusive apps, and can be updated, but is overall very stable as a standalone.
3. Audiokit souvenirs with unique app unlock badges. Wristband, or T-shirt (although could be the same unlock)
4. Custom skins unique to veteran buyers of the app. Think of Korg Monopoly and how there was the unique Monopoly skin. It's an aesthetic, but it felt really nice to have that exclusive skin - that's the reason why I haven't updated the app yet.
so i’m confused. when does this app become available?
Thursday or Friday according to @analog_matt
Nope, that is on purchases, you purchase nothing from the app store, you rent, if you purchased then legally you would be able to resell the app as new, this is not the case because it is a rental
Do you have a source for that? Factually you are of course correct but I’d be interested in a write-up.
Trust me, it is the law, Apple have the best lawyers in the world, the wording in the app store licence is sticking to that law, rental.
@Samflash3 & everyone - great ideas, thank you!
It looks like the app will be coming out tomorrow (Friday) instead of today. Thanks for your patience. 🙏
... "The collabs and this whole experience of building special edition apps has made coding fun for me again." ... this seems most significant for me.
we all want to injoy how we spend our time
artificially scarce music apps (in a sea of sooo much beauty) seems very different to something like this .... https://www.politico.eu/article/europes-hidden-milk-price-lake-threatens-fragile-market-eu-commission/
the need most of us have to commodify our time and output can sometimes way heavy
imagine a world where we all just do it for the joy
and i feel like this will work out well for Matt and all of us - great apps for great prices - an 8 week purchase window surely wide enough for most who occasionally visit here - and an opportunity for those of us prone to appwholism to consider
is it wrong to buy apps for a future ipad ;?)
I love this idea. I can’t wait to see what you guys come up with.
Technically, a license that you acquire from the third party seller. Apple just provides the App Store infrastructure. Terms of the licence are governed by an EULA between the developer and the buyer. So, yes, not sale but not really a rental either.
As to the original question, for the UK the pertinent passage reads:
“ Right of cancellation: If you choose to cancel your order, you may do so within 14 days of when you received your receipt, without giving any reason.”
Not too bad.
”If you bought a product or a service online or outside of a shop (by telephone, mail order, from a door-to-door salesperson), you also have the right to cancel and return your order within 14 days, for any reason and without a justification.”
https://europa.eu/youreurope/citizens/consumers/shopping/guarantees-returns/index_en.htm
Not a lawyer so man-guessing here; on rent vs purchase - I suspect that buying the right / licence to use the product (even for a limited time = rent) would fall under ”product” in the EU directive above. So the ”product” is not the app, it’s the licence - hence Apple need to abide by EU law for refunds on digital purchases.
And a bit of history digging;
https://9to5mac.com/2014/12/29/app-store-itunes-refunds-eu/
Apple introduced the 14-day refund, no questions asked policy for EU countries 6 months after the EU directive was issued. Coincidence?
And they kind of withdrew it only a short while after. After you refund one or two apps, you can no longer purchase apps without renouncing your rights to refund it. That has just become part of the purchasing process.
14 day no questions asked refund for Europe is only valid if you don’t download the app.
Apple are good at surfing.
Looking forward to Friday, thanks for the update @analog_matt
99% certain this isn’t true. How do you buy an app without downloading it?
Simply untrue.
I was mistaken about the policy.
As @nick mentioned, that kicks in once you have refunded an app.
Refunded Z3TA and even free apps gave me that warning popup before install until very recently.
Will be getting all of these to support Audiokit.
it sounds absurd but that‘s actually how Apple phrases it.
