For affected storefronts, compare tax treatment and developer proceeds before changing customer prices. The announcement does not establish a change in app demand.

Recommended follow-up

1. Read Apple's original “Tax and Price Updates for Apps, In-App Purchases, and Subscriptions” announcement and record the affected platforms, storefronts and any effective date.
2. For affected storefronts, compare tax treatment and developer proceeds before changing customer prices. The announcement does not establish a change in app demand.
3. Assign an owner, record the baseline and verify the affected flow. Treat subsequent ranking or rating changes as observations, not proof that this announcement caused them.
