Apple’s app store App Store has some rules to protect users. In this direction, if the developers increase the subscription prices, the users’ subscription is canceled and they have to subscribe again, thus preventing users from accidentally spending serious money. However, Apple has decided to make a change to this rule.
Developers will be able to increase subscription prices more easily
Apple stated that under certain conditions and with prior notice to the user, subscription prices can be updated without interruption of service. According to the new rules, in some cases, developers will be able to increase subscription prices and users’ subscriptions will not be cancelled. However, this comes with serious user protection rules.

According to Apple’s new rules, the subscription price can only be updated once in a year. In addition, the monthly and annual subscription price cannot increase by more than 50%. If the developers comply with these rules, users’ subscriptions will not be automatically canceled when the subscription prices are updated. However, Apple will warn users via e-mail, notification and message when there is a price change, and will prevent users from overspending unintentionally. Additionally, Apple noted that the new rule may vary according to local laws.
