Every year I fill out this survey from Apple, for Apple developers
Strongly agree with most of the points, but not all.<p>Disagreements :<p>- App updates. I think that the subscription model would be pretty good for apps actually if you could have a micro transaction system. Great quality apps are constantly maintained and often have recurring costs (API, servers, etc). Selling apps for a one time fee does not fit that well in this model. A nominal fee for app updates kinda solves part of the problem .. you just hope that your users love the new feature enough to buy it. It feels a lot like for a lot of apps that would just lead to feature creep instead of good design. I have been hoping to see a micro-subscription model emerge for a very long time. Unfortunately I don&#x27;t think customers want that and Apple&#x2F;Google don&#x27;t seem super interested in pushing it either (Google kinda has that with Google Play Pass, but in typical Google fashion this is dead on arrival).<p>- I don&#x27;t think the web is in a significantly different than it has been for the entirety of iOS&#x2F;Android existences : it has its place but is not going to replace native anytime soon, especially for the &quot;high quality&quot; apps the author talks about.
