@gruber Could you elaborate on how you see subscriptions solving the free trial problem? Do you mean users can cancel after the first month?
John Gruber
@gruber Thanks. Does the app have to be functional without a sub, like with IAP?

@mjtsai Unclear. My comparison: Spotify (freemium) vs. Netflix (useless without subscription). -
-
@mjtsai My understanding is if an app is approved for subscription pricing, it is up to the developer. But that’s not official. -

@Gen_Zer0 why so? - View other replies

@ishabazz or if I want to play a game, do I have to pay every month just to end up playing it 3 times that month? -
@Gen_Zer0 Games likely won’t uses subscription because IAP and Freemium models are already sustainable business models for those.
