I know I'm cheap and I know this app is great and is a lot of work but fuck, this is expensive. Subscriptions are the worst model capitalism can offer. And the one time payment price is ridiculous, I can't afford that.
Realistically it's the only way he can sustain the development costs with such a small userbase. I've subscribed monthly to show my support. It's not really that much money considering how much I use sync.
I did yearly and I'll probably get lifetime once we're out of beta. 18 bucks a year is the price for 1 month of Netflix, which ain't that bad at all.
These models are designed in such a way that those who can afford to support do, and those who can't afford to still have access through the free version.
They certainly don't expect everyone to purchase ultra, let alone lifetime.
I recently cancelled my Netflix and Spotify accounts because of horrible support and constant rate hikes. It's the perfect time to splurge and support a dev that deserves the money.
that is one time payment for sync ultra.
there is also a one time payment to just remove ads, at 20$.
I feel as though this information is left intentionally absent in this post.
App development ain't cheap and lifetime subscriptions are an incredible deal if you like the features and intend to keep using the app for the next decade plus. But you've got to look at it that way or else it's not worth it.
if you like the features and intend to keep using the app for the next decade plus and it remains available for that long
FTFY
Great point. I am not familiar with sync or the dev so I couldn't speak to their reliability, although the outpouring of support suggests they'll be active.
And most of the ultra features are things that require hosting or external paid apis.
the free one works well. and I got an adblocker I think
