How much do you spend on apps? iTunes or Google Play.

[T3wilson]

What is the most or average expense on mobile apps from google play or iTunes?

R0.00

Nothing! I pirated a few games a few years ago but I rarely play games anymore, and all of them are free. The Play Store doesn't accept my debit card anyway, so I couldn't even if I wanted to.

Family member mentioned she has an allowance of R500, for her kids to purchase apps each month, which i think is bit excessive.

 

[Fro]

A bit? FFS, people have money to waste!

 

[oldhat]

Nothing, only use free apps.

I buy apps for running a business, anything between R100-R1000, the apps is worth every penny

 

[Mr Scratch]

Havent bought one in a while, but would estimate about R700 worth installed right now.

Like Termius, it has a free version, but to use the cool goodies (sync connection manager between iPhone, iPad and Mac) you need to pay.

I use Bria for 3 VoIP lines, bought Codec

I have bought a few apps. ticket to ride, ingenious come to mind. but both were years ago.

recently with changes in pokemon go, I have started spending money on that.
my wife and I spend between R250 adn R500 per month in pokemon go now.

and I have made 2 purchases in pokemon duel. both were the special bundle that was just great value. I think it was about R100 each time.


wife and I came up with a solution.
what she spends on makeup (brushes, nailpolish mascara, base whatever) in a month I get to spend on mobile games.
this is to limit both of us, as she does not like me spending on mobile games, and I dont like make up in general. so it works for us.

then everything changed when legendary raids started in pokemon go. now its 4 or 5 raid passes extra a week, between 1 and 3 lucky eggs a day for the wife, and we still buy incubators as well.

also, I need to say when we spend money in pokemon go we follow these steps:
step 1, buy Checkers voucher via Ebucks to get discount.
step 2 buy Google play voucher at checkers.
step 3 load voucher into play store.
step 4 but the 100 coins for R7 deal.
repeat step 4 until the R250 voucher is finished.
this gives enough coins to buy a few of the 25 lucky egg bundles for the wife, the 9 incubators we use in a month, and the rest goes to raid passes.

and yes, we really do raid that often.

I bought plex, that's it.

I go through phases, when I played Pokemon Go spent way to much money R1000 - R1500. Then picked up Yu-gi-oh same thing. Now I am playing Idle heroes and have spent a fair amount as well.

 

[Geoff.D]

Simple . ZERO!

Can't remember the last time I paid for an App.

But in my lifetime probably not more than R500. Maybe a grand.

But R500 a month is just madness. I hardly even spend that on my consoles these days.
