The Netflix app doesn't require you to use Apple Pay. Why should Hey be treated differently?
3 comments

seems to me that once apps get big enough they're able to sidestep the apple tax completely. I wonder why they don't try some kind of graduated model that starts at 30% and drops to 10% once there are enough subscriptions.

I feel there is a number that Netflix and others would be happy to pay to help onboard customers.

Are you able to manage your subscription in the Netflix app, though?
Great question/point! I had to check - tapping "Account" in the app brings you to the Netflix website.
Do you think Apple isn’t getting their dues from Netflix?
