Apple introduces a new subscription model that lets developers charge a *monthly* fee while keeping a 12‑month commitment. The move gives users the price break of an annual plan, spread over a year, and the flexibility to cancel anytime once their commitment ends.

Developers can start building these plans in App Store Connect and test them in Xcode today. The feature will roll out with *iOS 26.4* and equivalent releases next month, alongside the upcoming iOS 26.5 update.

The United States and Singapore are currently excluded from the rollout, leaving uncertainty about availability there. The change aims to balance affordability for users with predictable revenue streams for developers, reshaping how App Store subscriptions are structured.
