5 Reasons Why Design Paid Apps Instead of Free Apps

It is worldwide fact by now that Android users always look for free apps, while iOS users are more inclined towards using paid apps. You might be a bid advocate of free apps, as you can have ample savings, and still using some nice features. However, paid apps do have their own set of advantages that are not obvious on first instant, but gradually comes into focus. 

Being a custom iPhone mobile application development company in India for years now, we know what it takes to build a paid app, and how clients are greatly benefitted from a paid app. Why users would prefer to pay for downloading an app? Let us find the real reasons behind that. 

Paid apps are completely free of external ads

Best part about a paid app is you do not have even a single ad popping up, when you are using an app while online. Hence, you can seamlessly use an app, even if connected with Internet, without getting interfered from unwanted advertisements. Users have the tendency to click on such ads by mistake when using an app, leading to opening up the browser unknowingly. This does not happen in case of paid apps. 

Advanced features can only be accessed in paid apps

It happens all the time, when users want to go beyond an app, by accessing the advanced features, which are useful. This is especially true in case of business users. Sometimes true potential of an app can only be leveraged through advanced features, and that too in a paid version. 

Every single update strike upon a paid app

Each app has its share of regular updates showing up every now and then. Paid apps get the privilege of receiving all the updates, as compared to free ones that might receive updates or might not. With more updates, come more features. Hence, paid apps are full of latest features, with free apps showing old features. 

Less data consumed in case of paid apps

As discussed earlier, free apps have the tendency to show up ads every now and then, and even worse that users happen to click that ad by chance. Imagine, the data lost by doing this activity frequently. Especially, if you have video ads in place taking hell of a time to load, you have all the data lost right away. This is not the case with paid apps, as they do not have any ads to serve at all. 

Revenue generation for the app developers

It is not just the users benefitted with using advanced features within an app. With paid apps, even the app developers are able to generate revenue, which only increases over time. As the number of paid features grows, so does the user loyalty, and in turn the overall app revenue, leading to continuous cycle.
