    Anyway a lot of these developers get it wrong. Don’t bully people into paying with aggressive or misleading tactics as that just alienates your user base. Instead make the app so good to use that people are willing to pay for extra features. The free version should be so good that people stop and wonder how they can support the dev. Then offer a feature that is genuinely useful.

      Yeah on iOS I dropped money for lumafusion and procreate which is equivalent in price to software on desktops. So people will pay for high quality.

      But, have ads and constant begging for subscriptions and locking stuff being subscriptions as opposed to a big one time payment and I’m uninstalling. I hate subscriptions. I’d rather pay for different version updates if I decide the new version is worth it while having the option to keep using the older version without losing access
