Apple denies that it’s taking advantage of the large number of iOS users in China and overcharging them when they have in-app purchases, reports Chinanews.com.
There have been some customer complaints that subscribing to the same services — including online videos, and calling for a taxi through apps — costs more through iOS than Android in China. Many enterprises and app developers blame the 30% App Store commission they pay Apple as the reason for the price difference, according to Chinanews.
However, Apple says that pricing rights for in-app purchases are controlled completely by the developers. If the apps are providing material services, such as selling products or providing a taxi through Didi Chuxing, no commission is charged at all, according to the tech giant.
