Changing the Price of an App

Overview

You can adjust the price of your app at any time through your iTunes Connect and Google Developer accounts. Setting a price for your app means that users will need to pay to download your app from the respective store. This article provides instructions for changing the price of an app for both Apple and Google.

Apple and Google App Fees 

• Both Apple and Google take 30% of the revenue from app sales.
