After a more widespread outrage on social media through users that were discovered without WordPress updates, Apple ended its goal of forcing the online blog page to introduce invoices into the app. Apple issued a revelation of the prestige of its discussion with WordPress. “We believe the challenge with the WordPress app has been solved. Since the developer got rid of the app service payment options, it’s now a loose standalone app and doesn’t have to offer in-app purchases. We’ve informed the developer and Sorry for the confusion we’ve caused,” Apple said in a (via The Verge).
Rumors around Apple that allegedly seek to dictate the terms to companies for the 30% percentage of in-app purchases that they usually make from installs and apps to supply their platform began after WordPress CEO Matt Mullenweg tweeted that iOS updates to the blog app were blocked. He also added that WordPress had to make in-app purchases for Arraycom plans and called the move a problem. He also asked Twitter users for advice on how to deal with the issue.
“Be careful why @WordPressiOS updates are missing… we were blocked through the App Store. In order to forward updates and bug fixes, we had to dedicate ourselves to backing up in-app purchases for Arraycom plans. I know why it’s problematic, open to suggestions. Allow PPI? New name?, tweeted Matt Mullenweg, CEO of WordPress.
While things went wrong before the battle, WordPress didn’t sell any plans on iOS and instead allowed users to create an online page to lose on Apple’s platform. WordPress doesn’t even offer features for users to purchase a dot-com domain call or even a singles blog from the iPhone and iPad app.
The Verge reported that Apple stated that in-app purchases were essential to “allow users to access the content, subscriptions, or features they have acquired in their app on other platforms or on their website.
