Apple changes 'free' button to 'get'
There is an odd inconsistency to the change. First-party Apple apps appear to still be "free," while all other free apps, whether they have in-app purchases or not are "get." Under the "get" button there is a notation if there are in-app purchases.

I heard about this recently and I wasn't sure if it was true at first. I think "free" sounds a lot better than "get".

I see some people saying on here they don't like it cause it confused me, They changed the letters on a button, How is that confusing ??

Confused me at first but it makes sense. It gets rid of those people who complain that "free" games aren't truly free.

Console Why would they change it to get, I think it was fine the way they had it.
Apple wouldn't have changed it if people didn't want it changed. It's because of the iAPs, it's not LITERALLY free if you include the (unneeded) purchases. Lol people are ridiculous.
