Two New High-Profile Web Apps
This week I came across two more high-profile companies moving from apps to web app (HTML5) to avoid the Apple tax.
- Amazon’s Answer To Apple’s Terms: A Web-Based Kindle Cloud Reader — Brilliant On PC, Better On iPad
- Vudu Is Now Streaming To The iPad, Uses Web App To Avoid The App Store Revenue Tax
The other advantages that these developers will experience is that they no longer need to get approval from Apple (which can make planning and time lines difficult), and their apps are now cross-platform!
I previous wrote about this subject in Financial Times on an iDevice.
