It bears mentioning that Apple assigns Pricing Tiers instead of using normal USD conversions and developers price their apps based on these tiers. Furthermore, the actual conversion rate between the two currencies during a purchase is already set and not taken into consideration.

Pricing Tiers are used by Apple for every transaction in the company’s mobile ecosystem, including subscriptions, in-app purchases, and direct app purchases and these automatically apply to every country where an app is available. For instance, a Tier 1 purchase in the United States that costs $1.00 will cost Rs. 230 in Pakistan and their own respective value in other countries based on the pricing chart shared by Apple for that region.
