Is Apple getting tough with scam apps with extortionate subscriptions?
(iMore iPhone)

It`s a long time coming. We`ve been hearing over the last day or so that at least one developer has been on the wrong end of an App Store review rejection because their in-app purchases (IAP) were deemed unusually costly. It turns out that one of those, at least, was rejected in error. But the fact remains that the rejection did happen. Does that mean that Apple really is getting tough with scam apps? Now, it`s important to remember that not every in-app purchase is a scam, nor is every app with a subscription. I`ve been vocal on that front before. But you only need to take a look at the App Store and some of the apps aimed at kids to know there is some predatory IAP pricing going on. And a ton of that revolves around subscriptions. The apps I`m talking about are the ones that try to charge you $9.99 or more per week for access to a coloring app. Or a similar price for what`s nothing more than a clone of Flappy Bird. The coloring space seems to be disproportionally affected here....
