Interesting, it's instant on mine. The landing page is just Astro with cloudflare in front of it, the origin server is a hetzner box in Germany though.

I was able to track down my stolen vehicle with the help of Tile and now put them hidden in all my vehicles since they don't alert like an Air Tag does.
They are taking 27%, between that and processing fees you might as well use In App Purchases.
"Apple’s commission will be 27% on proceeds you earn from sales (“transactions“) to the user for digital goods or services on your website after a link out (i.e., they tap “Continue” on the system disclosure sheet), provided that the sale was initiated within seven days and the digital goods or services can be used in an app. This includes (a) any applicable taxes and (b) any adjustments for refunds, reversals and chargebacks. For auto-renewing subscriptions, (i) a sale initiated, including with a free trial or offer, within seven days after a link out is a transaction; and (ii) each subsequent auto-renewal after the subscription is initiated is also a transaction.] If you’re a participant in the Small Business Program, or if the transaction is an auto-renewal in the second year or later of an auto-renewing subscription, the commission will be 12%. These commission rates apply to all amounts paid by each user net of transaction taxes charged by you. You will be responsible for the collection and remittance of any applicable taxes for sales processed by a third-party payment provider. If you adopt this entitlement, you will be required to provide transaction reports within 15 calendar days following the end of each calendar month. Even if there were no transactions, you’re required to provide a report stating that is the case. If the cadence changes, we will update this page. To learn about the details that will need to be included in the report, view example reports. In the future, if Apple develops an API to facilitate reporting, you will be required to adopt such API within 30 days with an update of your app and follow the timing and requirements provided."
Let’s say I hire a dev for $100k/yr and my product does $100k in revenue which just covers the developer’s salary. I have $0 left in the bank but owe tax on $80k in profit in the first year, is that correct or am I completely misunderstanding?
With the trouble Apple goes through to ensure you are accessing APNS from an Apple device including obfuscating the signing algorithm and requiring unique hardware identifiers I think it’s safe to assume they don’t want 3rd parties accessing their services.
The relevant policy can be found at: https://support.google.com/googleplay/android-developer/answ...
"We don’t allow apps that interfere with, disrupt, damage, or access in an unauthorized manner the user’s device, other devices or computers, servers, networks, application programming interfaces (APIs), or services, including but not limited to other apps on the device, any Google service, or an authorized carrier’s network."
From what I understand your app connects to APNS without permission from Apple.
I have personally had my Google Play Developer account banned for making an app that connected to a 3rd party service
Obfuscation and deobfuscation is also super interesting. I think overall reverse engineering and figuring out how things work is one of the most interesting things in computer science.
