Some definitely do charge more for e.g. subscriptions on iOS than they do if you go through their website. They can't advertise the website option in their app, but it can exist.

Last time I made that mistake the site's subscription management interface was rather... uh, minimum viable product. Switching to paying the Apple premium was well worth it.

Thanks for that info. I wasn't aware that apps were allowed to charge more for subscriptions via iOS. I thought their only options in this regard was to not offer in app subscriptions at all.
