多看閱讀iOS版終於升級到3.4,是用什麼辦法來突破蘋果限制的?
多看閱讀蘋果iOS版數量一下子到5萬多本書,價格也能1.99、2.99了。之前聽說蘋果較死板,有6,12,18這樣的階梯價格體系,還有APP只能有1萬本書的限制。
過去幾年裡面,蘋果對IAP的審核策略發生了多次變化。蘋果將IAP分為以下幾種類型:
Consumable products. Items that get used up over the course of running your app. Examples include minutes for a Voice over IP app and one-time services such as voice transcription.
Non-consumable products. Items that remain available to the user indefinitely on all of the user』s devices. They』re made available to all of the user』s devices. Examples include content, such as books and game levels, and additional app functionality.
Auto-renewable subscriptions. Episodic content. Like non-consumable products, auto-renewable subscriptions remain available to the user indefinitely on all of the user』s devices. Unlike non-consumable products, auto-renewable subscriptions have an expiration date. You deliver new content regularly, and users get access to content published during the time period their subscription is active. When an auto-renewable subscription is about to expire, the system automatically renews it on the user』s behalf.
Non-renewable subscriptions. Subscriptions that don』t involve delivering episodic content. Examples include access to a database of historic photos or a collection of flight maps. It』s your app』s responsibility to make the subscription available on all of the user』s devices and to let users restore the purchase. This product type is often used when your users already have an account on your server that you can use to identify them when restoring content. Expiration and the duration of the subscription are also left to your app (or your server) to implement and enforce.
Free subscriptions. A way to put free subscription content in Newsstand. After a user signs up for a free subscription, the content is available on all devices associated with the user』s Apple ID. Free subscriptions don』t expire and can be offered only in Newsstand-enabled apps.
- IAP應該使用non-consumable
- 必須支持匿名購買和找回
- 不能使用任何其他方式在產品內購買圖書
- 產品中不能有任何鏈接、明示、暗示用戶去別處購買圖書
- 產品中禁止使用任何和蘋果、蘋果的產品、蘋果的人名來進行宣傳
- 圖書在iOS售賣價格不應該比提供者在其他地方售賣的更便宜(印象有些模糊了)
- 支持匿名購買和找回
- 因為一處寫了官網地址而不過審
- 因為《一支iPhone的全球之旅》而無法過審
- 要求只能一本書對應一個product id,而蘋果限制了一個App最多擁有9999個不同的product id、product id無法刪除,導致多看閱讀就有了所謂一萬本書的限制。
- 其他平台的定價向iOS看齊,採用6、12、18這樣的階梯定價。
到了2014年,蘋果終於良心發現,將電子圖書看做為一種服務,主要要求:
- 支持匿名購買、下載
- 如果使用了non-consumable,必須支持找回
- 產品中不能有任何鏈接、明示、暗示用戶去別處購買圖書
