I am trying to use google in app billing to make my application sell able . In my app I have wallpapers some of which are free others have different prices I am really confused how to set different prices to different wallpapers because my whole application is one apk and I am not finding way to set different prices using the same apk. Is there a way out or am I missing any information
Strange why i was unanswered but simply adding new products at in-apps menu solved my problem using different produid as SKU i could set differnt prices of different wall pappers

Current issue: How do we efficiently deploy different versions of the same App to different customers?
Example:
App version 1.1 needs to be installed for customer A.
App version 1.2 needs to be installed for customer B.
App version 1.3 needs to be installed for customer C.
App versions 1.1, 1.2 and 1.3 are basically the same application with small differences between them (probably different backend versions required). Some features might be missing or might be extra on some versions depending on customers explicitly wanting them or not, or the branding might be different: different logo, different theme etc. It is basically the same codebase but with variations specifically asked by the clients.
We need a way to publish the app and indicate to our customers which app version they need to install. What options do we have?
I would really appreciate an answer from someone who dealt with this kind of situation before.
If you are planning to give application with slightly changes by features to different users. Firstly you can only submit 1 final build on the App Store. There is no such option for uploading separate versions on the store while keeping the old version.
But if you have fixed set of users than you should have some of the options like :
First option is you can upload 3 different distribution builds on TestFlight & invite the users on the specific build where you wants them to access the features
Another option is you can create the links on the online link services from where you can generate the links for the app & you can distribute that links to the specific users
Last option is you can create a single build only but you can control the features hide & show on basis of APIs & by that way you can give the access of specific features to the relevant users only
I hope this will help everyone.
I have an iOS app in the App Store and I want to use my app in different countries. So I wonder if it's possible to upload a different version for each country.
For example, I want to update Turkey's app but I want to hold the old version of an app on the UK market.
There are essentially two options to consider:
Using localized models/controllers in order to display a different content to users with different locales. Here's the Apple Developer guide about localizing your app.
Creating different configurations with different Bundle ID suffixes and treating the them as separate apps. You can read more about configuration handling here.
I'd recommend the first one for most projects, since it's easier to handle one app than several ones. However, it's up to you and the project which one you'll choose.
You cannot hold a version in different countries say for example If your app is published in 2 countries then next version will be automatically available in that 2 the countries because does not allow it.
If you want can add or remove the countries but if we talk about version holding on some countries that is not possible
I am working on an app that serves two different types of user. Both users have some common functionalities.
One group is the general public, who uses the app to navigate basic events or request for new events.
The second group is who can provide services to the general public (can be paid or unpaid). They primarily access the profiles created by general users. They can add details, e.g. notes about conversations with them.
Now we want to divide both the users because the app is getting quite large and at any time user can be part of one group only.
How can I create separate apps?
Using different targets for each group is it a better solution? I tried this but it is not helping us to reduce app size.
Creating separate project will make maintaining challenge because both uses have some common functionalities.
I had developed 3 applications for my client. Now he wants to distribute it to other organizations (doing same business). Other firms will have minor data and image set changes, other functionalities are same. What is the best approach for distributing this 3 application with the other firms?
1) One solution I think is to upload this 3 application to each firms apple enterprise account.
Prons:
UI and functionality can be changed for each apps depends on business
changes.
Will have different server and APIs. So data security can be increased.
Cons:
Need to maintain different source codes.
As firms number increases applications also increases, which can be a form of spamming appStore
with similar applications.
2) Another solution is to upload this 3 application to one account and is distributed among other firms. Need to check any legal issue in doing this. By this server will maintain different database for different Companies and user registered with this company will link to the corresponding database. All other calculation and logic will be handled by the server. iOS application switches image set w.r.t company.
Can I do this by any other approach or which one is the best one. The main idea is to give a contract to another firm by creating a set of users having an extendable validity date and this is maintained by my client.
Thanks in advance and any thought on this is appreciable.
The best solution to this is Volume Purchase Program for Business
provided by Apple. It provides you with a functionality called Custom B2B apps for iOS. You can read the details in this document.
For example playhaven allows to create a concrete set of applications to display. Even if they don't belong to me.
Is it possible to do the same with Flurry? It is hard to understand anything with their awful design. As I understand I must create "a new campaign" but it doesn't allow to advert with a zero budget/price
Are you looking to serve direct sold ads using Flurry? If yes, you can create an 'Advertisers' campaign under the Publishers tab, and set the value in the price field as $0.01. There is a bug in the system which doesn't allow the value to be $0.00. However, since this value is only for your self-reporting purpose, it wouldn't affect ad serving.
For any further queries, please write to support#flurry.com.
