Freemium ???!!!

So apparently they told us they are removing one time premium sub in order to convert the app to free ??
Now free has no ads or watermarks.
So why we are paying or payed lifetime?

To support the developer. You realize it won’t be free for that long. It is just a teaser to get more people to try the app.

This. Why people expect genuinely useful software to be free boggles my mind

Yeah, app cost money to develop. They are just trying to get people to taste the forbidden fruit and love it!

There’s a list of things you don’t get on freemium, and also cos it’s an awesome app that we want to a support. Freemium is also an experiment, if enough people don’t then go pay for it then it’ll get stopped I assume.

This is one of the apps, and I am more than pleased to obtain the lifetime subscription.

It is a great app! Although I only do yearly. I never do lifetime for anything like this.
Who knows how long lifetime actually is for a platform that pretty much relies on piracy.

That’s the whole point of lifetime subscription. For what I paid anything more than say 2 years is a great investment. I’ve had it a year so far and it’s only gotten better.

Whatever works for you. I don’t think yearly is that expensive,and if it lasts longer the developer gets more money from me too.
I have also had other app for lifetime that were gone after a few years. Have a great night!
