Take the 2-minute tour ×  I'm considering a design for an app
following the "freemium" model where certain content is free but
the user can purchase more content within the app.  My concern
is that the content they can purchase will be >20Mb, the limit
for a 3G App download.  Has anyone attempted this or have any
idea what the implications would be? I'm wondering what happens
if they buy the app while on 3G... would they have to go back to
their computer to finish downloading the content and then sync
it to the phone?  share|improve this question add comment  1

an increased chance of it not completing. This is where you come
in to check if you need to deliver additional content when
