Pre-ordering mobile apps is a service offered by major app stores (Google Play, Apple Store, etc.) that allows users to reserve an app before its official release. Once pre-ordered, the app is automatically downloaded and installed on the user’s smartphone as soon as it’s released. On the Apple Store, it’s possible to pre-order an app up to 90 days before its initial release date. This service applies to both paid and free apps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For app developers, pre-orders can be used for various purposes, such as testing, market research, or capitalizing on the hype surrounding the app before its official launch. Unlike pre-orders for physical products, which often rely on scarcity, unless the app is a limited edition, pre-ordering mobile apps primarily serves a practical purpose. For users, it is more of a service facilitating reminders to install the application upon its release than a guarantee of obtaining the application, except in the case of limited editions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","categories-glossary":[336],"class_list":["post-171661","dictionnaire-dico","type-dictionnaire-dico","status-publish","hentry","categories-glossary-seo-natural-referencing"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/digitionary.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/dictionnaire-dico\/171661","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/digitionary.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/dictionnaire-dico"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/digitionary.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/dictionnaire-dico"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/digitionary.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=171661"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"categories-glossary","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/digitionary.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories-glossary?post=171661"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
