Or, we can just like ...buy it once...like most other software that isn't tied to a first-party hosted service?
I'd like to unsubscribe from your vision of the future
There will be an In-App Purchase later on. Keep in mind this is a beta and not the full release. For the beta the option is ads or ultra. For the full release it will be ads, pro (one time purchase) or ultra (subscription).
IMO that's a good way to go
In this scenario you'd pay for updates though right?
FYI there will be a one time payment option once the app is out of beta.
I'm somewhat with you on this, but most software that's updating its pricing or is new, is using a subscription model. 2$ really is fine I think, even less with the yearly thing. I'd still like to see a OTP
The developer has confirmed on Discord that the one-time lifetime payment is planned for the full release.
That's nice to hear!
These prices are for Ultra. Ultra is voluntary and only for super fans to support the developer. There will be a pro version that is a one time payment and it removes all the ads and is very affordable. But the developer didn't want to start charging for the Pro version while bugs still exist and is waiting for the Beta to be over.
The option to remove ads has been added - it costs $20 USD. The lifetime Ultra costs $100 USD.
