I think the main issue is there then :

> 'ignore your customers'

I'm not a customer of any music app. I'm not a customer of any dnd app. I am a user of music companion app, and in my opinion, but i'm clearly in the majority in my area, full feature tuner/music apps are inferior to companion apps for musicians. And it's the same for character sheet helpers for rpgs, we tried using an app a few years ago, it worked well enough, but companion apps are just better in my experience if you play on a table.

Probably because often, companions app have users, not customers?

Again, why do you keep bringing up personal experiences as a benchmark? It’s completely irrelevant. We are talking about a store with 100s of millions of users, you’re just 1. How about checking what apps are the most downloaded for a start to get an idea what people actually want in an app.

Customers, users… just interchangeable terms to mean the same thing. The whole issue is this particular developer does not build fully featured apps with Apple as they would take too much money out of any generated income (if any). So yeah, this is just about money.

I think I have to requote the part I responded to

> People want fully featured apps, not companion apps

I gave multiple example on why this is false. I thought one example was enough to prove something is false, but okay.

Orwin I advice not engaging further as you'll waste your time. I don't think your parent commenter is interested in a honest debate.

From my experience in a sibling discussion.

Their language is emotional and loaded, and include ad hominem attacks.

Perhaps they are going through some difficult times or something.
