Apple is allowing some subscription apps to auto-renew even with a price hike
The problem is that unless you know how much you normally pay for these subscriptions each month, you might not recognize a price increase when one has been rammed down your throat. Apple does have an explanation for this new rule which it mentioned in a post put up Monday on the internet. The company wrote, “Currently, when an auto-renewable subscription price is increased, subscribers must opt in before the price increase is applied. The subscription doesn’t renew at the next billing period for subscribers who didn’t opt in to the new price.”
Apple has made a rule change for certain auto-renew subscription fees charged to App Store users
The tech giant claims that many who don’t opt-in at the new, higher price have had their services interrupted unintentionally. This forces them to resubscribe inside of the app, from the Settings menu on their iPhone and iPad, or the App Store on a Mac. The new rule allows the subscription to continue under certain circumstances (more on that below) so that the subscriber doesn’t find that his subscription has been mistakenly canceled.
