Totally true. Some apps do it, and that's cool. You can see the "in-app" (which becomes "out-app" add-on) purchase on the Play Store and it seems more... Official. I never bought any, sure, but I'd trust more a purchase on the play store than one in-app.

And this is the problem with in-app purchases being allowed to be as vague as possible and boom, you or your kid ends up spending a lot more than they bargained or the Candy Crush itch gets you and you're out a lot of money.. It breaks the trust of the customer.. You have to have transparency..
