I just got word that Android seems to be charging 2.9% + $0.3 per unit sold, which is really good news (it could be wrong though)
So now i’m wondering if apple does the same thing or if it’s actually 30% as i have heard. If someone who has actually had payments could clarify exactly how it works i would be grateful.
Its 30% Apple takes.
But you get a mature platform, consistent hardware (no happy hippo fragmentation like in nokia rulz days) and they check it on their end if it really runs.
The desire and openness to buy applications for $$$ is significantly higher on the apple appstore than it is on android market (google struggles seriously getting users to buy stuff there and after having been unable to install anything due to internal memory limitations and incapability to use SD for the whole app - I’m more and more understanding why)
Ok thanks for the answers.
