The iPhone will support third-party payments in the US, but don't expect apps to get any cheaper - here's why.

    The average app price on the App Store is 88 cents. https://www.statista.com/statistics/267346/average-apple-app-store-price-app/

    Is that using free apps to bring the average down?

    How many purchases were actually made at such rates? Apple has a credit system last I checked which means the fee could be taken for a higher amount, bringing that commission down hugely.
