On August 24, DoNews reported (reporter Liu Wenxuan) that Epic Games, the developer of Fortress Night, was in continuous confrontation with Apple because of the "Apple tax" problem in the App Store. However, during this period, Apple and WordPress had disputes.
Matt Mullenweg, founder of WordPress, said on Twitter that the WordPress iOS application was once required by the Apple App Store to be added to the in app purchase (IAP) option. Apple requires them to add payment options within 30 days, otherwise they cannot update the app.
Mullenweg recently told the media that WordPress has agreed to comply with Apple's requirements and will provide in app purchase options within 30 days. An Apple spokesman also said that it had approved the latest update to WordPress.
However, this has aroused the anger of the developer community, so Apple decided to back down and issued an apology statement, saying that WordPress would not need to add additional in app purchase options. WordPress is still a free independent application now, and has also informed developers that they are sorry for any trouble caused.
The in app purchase option allows Apple's App Store to charge developers 30% of the rebate. According to Apple's policy, if there are paid services, subscription content and other items in the application running across platforms, developers must provide the functions purchased in the application.

WordPress applications on the shelves of major app stores can provide the function of managing WordPress websites. In addition to supporting blog websites hosted on WordPress's own servers, applications also support managing websites hosted on users' own servers, which is equivalent to an independent tool.
