Why iPad apps are more costly ?

As you can see, the iPad apps seems to be more costly than an average iPhone app, many people seems to ask me why ?

The reasons are obvious :

  • This is a new platform, so there isn’t any competition for the current apps. Hence the developers will start out with high prices, and when competition comes, the price will go down.
  • The iPad is a larger, more powerful platform than the iPhone. Hence its apps will also be more efficient, feature rich and user friendly than that of the iPhone.
  • Apart from all that, the iPad apps are basically better than the iPhone apps in many ways. In simple words, that will be the best explanation for its high price.
