Apple finally changing purchase policies

by

A while back I wrote a blog about the absurd charges kids where racking up on the iPhone and iPads while playing games. Purchasing in game items and such which cost some unhappy iPhone owners hundreds of dollars. The new iOS 4.3 update that came out on Wednesday will require a password after an application is downloaded. For those who didn’t know there is was a 15 minute period after something was downloaded before you needed to put in a password again. Which meant if you downloaded a game for your kid and they started playing it and there was some in game content you could purchase well a child, unknowingly could purchase said items without having to put a password in, which caused many people huge bills on their credit cards via the iTunes account. This is good to know that Apple hears the cry’s of unhappy customers and are willing to regulate things like this.
