Google still doesn't make you pay s dollar to write an app on their architecture (only to have it hosted in their store).

you also don't need to pay apple for using xcode and building apps for ios either; the 99 dollars is for uploading to appstore or installing to devices for more than 7 days

  • Using xcode does require paying Apple, unless you've gotten your hands on a free copy of the OS and/or free Apple hardware somehow.
