App prices are subject to change, and for iOS users in Australia, Sweden and Indonesia, prices are about to get a small hike.
According to an email sent out to developers, reported by 9to5Mac, Apple has let them know that apps in those aforementioned countries will be getting a small price increase in the next three days. This is due to fluctuations in the current foreign exchange rates, and it will see app prices rise by about 15 percent in local currency.
As articulated in the original article, it looks like an app that originally costs 1.29 AUD will rise to $1.49 AUD.
This change will rollout and it will affect initial app prices, but also in-app purchases and subscriptions. In a change of policy, Apple will no longer be canceling current subscriptions, but instead will keep them in place, with the higher app pricing, and simply let subscribers know via email that their prices are being increased.
