@CIAGP in the current implementation, the free trial option is tied to the In App Purchases biz model. @danielpunkass did a great job laying out what is wrong with this. bitsplitting.org/2018/06/06/ers…

🚨 App Store Free Trials. So important, it should’ve been in the keynote. (I haven’t 100% confirmed this, but it apparently applies to the Mac App Store too.) pcmag.com/news/361581/ap…

Per usual, @danielpunkass nails it: “…a pretty sweet solution” for offering free trials. bitsplitting.org/2018/06/06/ers…

@DaveWoodX This is a start:

This is big. Apple now explicitly permitting sales through your own website (thereby avoiding Apple’s 30% cut) as long as you don’t promote that option in your app.

This looks like it’s a direct answer to the @TheDevUnion’s petition. An official way to offer free trials (even if it’s the same as the hack we’ve been using so far). At least it’s now officially supported. #wwdc

Great! @TheDevUnion has surpassed 500 supporters, and there’s still plenty of room to grow. Maybe you don’t feel the current push for trials is a game changer, but sure enough we need a way to collectively let Apple know what the developer community hopes for. Join us! Free 🤗

Great write-up by an indie dev who would benefit from free trials.
