Groove, my offline music player for iPhone, is rolling out on the App Store! 🎉

It’s available only as a one-time purchase. No subscriptions!

To celebrate, I’ve made it 50% off for the first week, and it will go up to full price on March 21st.

If you’re in the EU, I am in the process of making it available there. 🤞

App Store
@ghalldev US only? Why?
@kevinrenskers @ghalldev works in Japan.
@slims @ghalldev OK so not strictly US only, but not in the Netherlands.

@kevinrenskers @slims I unfortunately cannot make the app available in the EU until I navigate the DSA compliance stuff.

It wasn’t something I was aware of until this week and it’s unclear to me if need to register as a trader or not. 😞

@ghalldev congrats on shipping. It’s always a rush to press the release for the very first time.

In the EU, when you sell software, you need to be available to the customer directly, i.e., register as a trader just to be sure.
My rule of thumb is: as soon as you make any money from it.

@sense Thank you!

That’s what I’ve been seeing. What do you do about listing an address and phone number? I was thinking PO box but not sure where to start with the phone number 😅

@ghalldev I have a virtual phone number and a PO box, to protect my personal data.

Not sure how you‘d register those from the US, since both required verifications — although I don’t know if they are required to be located in the EU at all. If

@sense From what I understand they do not have to be located in the EU. That’s about the only bit I did understand. 🤣

@ghalldev Perfect. As long as you can provide the data required in the EU trader from on App Store Connect, then it should be fine.
(No legal advice obviously)

I had some problems with getting calls or SMS for verification of my number, so be prepared for that. If everything goes smoothly, it should be fairly quick to do

@sense Sweet. Working on that now. 😊

@ghalldev good luck. Let me know how it goes.

Eager to try your app from Germany :)
