How will users access content in your apps?
Options available at Uscreen Website: | Options available at Uscreen Apps: |
|
NOTE: Bundles, rentals, and one-time purchases are not sold through apps, only on the website. |
Accessing Content:
Within the apps, all the content published in your catalog will be visible
If you are offering In-App Subscriptions (IAP), these subscriptions need to grant access to all of this content. You should always add top-tier subscriptions to your apps.
Any user can browse and watch free content (if any is available) in the apps.
Users will have access to the content they purchase on the website in the apps (including bundles, rentals, and one-time purchases).
Uscreen uses Single Sign-On, so it does not matter where you purchase access (registered account required)
You can log in on any platform and access content included in your subscription.
There are two options you can choose when building your apps:
Sign-In Only:
| In-App Purchase:
|
APPLE APPS ONLY: Any Paid Content = In-App Purchase
Apple won't approve apps that require paid access but do not use the In-App Purchase. (App Store Guideline 3.1.1 In-App Purchase)
If you want iOS approved and available in the App Store, you must give users the option to purchase access to your app, as well as your website.
If you offer access through Subscriptions, Bundles, or One-Time Purchases on your site, include content in All-Access Subscription and offer In-App Purchases.
Your other apps can be Sign-In Only, if you'd like.
More details about In-App Purchase:
App Subscriptions are linked to a Website Subscription for granting access and invoices. Any changes made on the Uscreen dashboard will not be automatically reflected in the apps.
-Type: We suggest adding a Private Subscription for apps.
-Content: App subscriptions should include access to all content (top tier).
-Duration: You can offer one app subscription for each duration (see below).

Revenue Share:
Revenue Share is required by each platform: Apple, Google, Amazon, and Roku.
It's like a Service Fee you pay to distribute your app.
You'll share part of all earnings from subscriptions purchased in the app.
In-App Subscriptions & Payments are managed by the platform, not Uscreen.
You'll be paid directly by Apple, Google, Amazon, & Roku.
