More like the opposite.

If you had $1,000 invested in Apple around ten years ago (a reasonable amount in a retirement fund), you'd have made around another $8,500 by now.

While if you'd spent $1,000 on apps and subscriptions over 10 years, Apple would have taken $300.

So Apple would take $300 of your money from one hand and give you back $8500 with the other.

That's a difference almost 3x larger than the difference you suggested... but in the opposite direction!

"Apple" takes and gives nothing. "Apple" is a collective figment of imagination of its shareholders, which people typically picture as dastardly moneybags living in mansions, but often forget to also picture, like, themselves, in retirement.
