I have about 5 different apps installed right now, and while I plan to test them all out, curious what people's conclusions are thus far.

I mean, I paid $3-4 for Sync literally years ago. Once. I personally don't have a problem kicking the dude shekels given that I literally paid pennies a month for how much I used it. To play devil's advocate, groceries cost twice what they did 2 years ago. Everything is more expensive across the board and it sucks, but these are the seas we swim in

Except the ad market is down. An ad supported user is going to generate $2-3 in revenue over the lifetime of the app at most. The pro version price should be in line with that. Or at least not vastly more.

I don't mind paying for a good appz even $20, but I just don't know if I will get that much use out of it. If another app comes around and I like it better, that's it.

Everything's more expensive so people are less willing to pay more since they simply not have the money
