        Many in here know that I'm not one for defending aPples greed, but it IS a US-based company, so not unsurprising that their base-prices are in US-dollars
        And have a look at how the price in GBP for 1USD has developed the last two years:

        So FOR ONCE this is not just pure greed....

            nothing to do with brexit I remember when I use to pay 69p for a app in the appstore and that had nothing to do with brexit.
