I don't understand why I am being charged for downloading apps that are supposed to be free. I thought these apps were completely free of charge, but I am seeing some unexpected fees on my account.

Apple Explained, a YouTube channel, released a video on July 15, 2024, discussing why Apple charges for free apps.

The video explains that Apple does not always bill immediately for app purchases or subscriptions. This means that when you make a purchase, the charge may not appear on your account right away.

Instead, the charge typically goes through a day or two later. This delay can sometimes lead to confusion, as users may not immediately see the charge on their account.

Apple's billing process is designed to ensure that users have enough time to review their purchases before the charge is finalized. This way, if there are any issues with the purchase, users can address them before being charged.

The video also mentions that Apple does not force users to pay for apps that are labeled as free. If an app is advertised as free, it should not result in any charges to the user's account.
