iPhone Users Beware: Are Apps Charging You a 'Luxury Tax'? Hey there, fellow iPhone aficionados! Ever feel like your sleek device comes with hidden costs? Well, buckle up, because it seems some apps are charging us a premium just for using iOS. Zepto's Price Puzzle A Bengaluru resident recently discovered that Zepto, the quick-commerce platform, lists 500 grams of grapes at ₹65 on Android, but a whopping ₹146 on an iPhone. Matrimonial Markup As I checked, It's not just groceries. On Shaadi.com, the Gold Plus 3-month plan is ₹5,000 for iOS users, while Android users get a 45% discount, paying only ₹3,058. Similarly, Jeevansathi's 3-month Pro Max plan is priced at ₹4,999 on iOS, but Android users enjoy a 58% discount, bringing it down to ₹1,922. The Bigger Picture These discrepancies raise questions about platform-based pricing strategies. Are companies assuming iPhone users are willing to pay more? It's a trend that demands attention. Stay Vigilant Next time you're about to make a purchase or subscribe to a service on your iPhone, it might be worth checking the price on an Android device. Your wallet will thank you!
