Starbucks To Offer Free IOS Apps

Starbucks and Apple have been in a affiliation for a number of years now. Apple provides Starbucks with free songs for patrons and a division in iTunes when patrons log in to Starbucks’ Wi-Fi network. Starbucks in return establish an iOS app that users can use to track rewards and pay for drinks with. Now, this partnership will bring paid iOS apps to customers for free.

Each app will come in the shape of the well-known Pick of the Week cards. Those cards presently have a song per week that clients can download from the iTunes store.

Shazam will be the first app to be presented as a part of the new arrangements. It’s a great bargain when you think that the regular price of the app is $5.99. Given the Apple-Starbuckstie, it seemsalright that the first app offered is a music-identifying one.

It isn’t comprehensive whether or not free songs will still be allowed next to the free apps. While a large numbers many people have iPhones, the free app presented targets a limited audience. The free song a week is more involving as you don’t certainly need an iOS gadget to appreciate the track.

Of course, Android customers like me are still count out of this offering. Starbucks finally arranged an official app for Android users just two months ago. maybe the coffee company will merge itself with Android more fully sometime in the near future.
