Yet Apple makes money from apps that collect data, made by developers.


> Yet Apple makes money from apps that collect data, made by developers.

If an app is free, but makes its money through data collection, then no, Apple doesn't make money off of it.

If they charge for the app, and then do data collection, then yes, Apple makes money off of the initial app purchase, but not off of the data collection.
