Apple seems to add variable App Store pricing after increases

After an announcement last week that App Store prices in Europe would be going up, developers have spotted new pricing alternatives as low as € 0.49, iPhoneItalia reports.

Tier 1 pricing was increased from € 0.99 to € 01.09, but after scrolling all the way to the bottom of the list developers discovered alternate pricing levels that would allow them to keep prices the same as before.

While the changes automatically increased the prices of all apps at Tier 1 (and upped the cost of in-app purchases and subscriptions as well), some continue to be available at the previous rates or even for less, suggesting some developers have manually changed their prices back.
