The bigger question to me is to what degree will the platform owners be restricted from monetizing apps on the platform. Requiring apps to be installable at no cost to the developer makes a big assumption that platform fees are 100% rent. Some of the fee surely is, but if enough people are able to circumvent fees, it seems likely to impact the dynamics of the platform, e.g. If supporting 3rd party apps become less profitable, why wouldn't Apple and Google shift focus/investments to first-part apps and features and allow public APIs to languish? |
