In this case, the child’s father ignored the function of SMS-information about bank operations and learned about the incident a few days later.

From whom do we get the money spent by mistake? With the developers? Of course, no. The girl’s parents contacted at Apple, and the company returned to them every cent within two weeks. Such generosity on the part of the technology giant is due to a loss in court when Apple failed to prove that iOS has all the tools to block built shopping.
