Pocket Sized Podcast 107: App Pricing and In-App Purchases

Posted on April 8, 2013 by Scott

Scott and Peter have a quick Evernote follow up, and then talk about App Store pricing and in-app purchases based on an article by Lex Friedman in Macworld. John Nemo’s got a Hard Shell but it’s not because he’s cranky, it’s the World’s Shortest Reviewcast.
