Well the £ has been in steep decline since 2014 so perhaps post-brexit £ crash was the straw that broke the camel's back. App prices have been the same since the App Store started I believe.

Aren't apple moving an hq to the UK - or at least moving there hq in UK to other offices in UK.

They're not leaving as the doom mongers predicted - maybe as we're cheap to employ

Surprised it's not been mentioned in this thread yet but Apple are also launching 2 lower price points for apps

To mitigate the impact of the latest increase, Apple is introducing new lower-price tiers.

Publishers will be able to charge users 49p or 79p for purchases but will have to re-price their products to do so.

I believe the marvellous Mr Rees-Mogg objected to it on the grounds that it would stop " Competition " . ..people should gave the right to thrash around in cheap phone accessory shops looking for a charger that fits and does not blow up after 30 mins use ..

And you chose to resurrect a thread from over 5 years ago for this why...? It's not even related (beyond Apple being involved) to the original topic!
