Its great for the app store if people mistakenly download the wrong app. They can increase the total downloads stats for more than one app that way. And it creates more "engagement' with the app store. They don't care that it's "forced" engagement

Does Apple still allow shamefully antipattern subscriptions like $7/week?

They are so complicit in garbage rebill apps, it's pathetic.

RoboKiller recently went from like $9.99/mo to $7/week.

Why would anyone even add anything called Robokiller ?

What is it supposed to do?

I never pay for anything recurring. Most are scams anyway.

It blocks robocalls. When someone calls you it checks the call against a database of robocallers and blocks known spam calls. It can also screen calls. It works pretty well, but it's not worth $7/week.

Is that functionality not a standard part of ios? The stock Android dialler has had it since 2015...

		You can block unknown callers, but it just pushes them to voicemail. Robokiller intercepts the calls and keeps them off your phone completely.
