The Day FREE Died in Apple & Google App Stores - Androidizen

The Day FREE Died in Apple & Google App Stores. So it came to pass Apple has now joined Google in removing the word FREE from games and apps that feature in-app purchasaes ( IAPs).

This brings both stores inline with European rules regarding the description of apps that are free but include IAPs ****

At least here in the US, play store apps with IAPs still say free, and say "In-App Purchases" under the install button, and in the permissions popup. The notification about in-app purchases has been there for at least a year and a half.

I would pay 1.99 on clash of clans if they added a gem collector and didnt have crazy in app purchases.

Yep, its annoying. Play 3 levels, pay for more. Run out of lives, wait 5 hours or pay. Now we know wich games do this! Hooray!
Or get jailbreak! Its fun!

I am still seeing a 'Free' category in the Google Play Store for games.
