$100 for an app is a cash grab no matter how you slice it. Period. End of discussion. $20 for ad free is arguable, but it's way more donation than actual financial support of the devs. That's what the ads are for. So yeah, imo asking for donations on top of ad revenue is grabbing for cash. The $100 version isn't even debatable
How is $100 a cash grab? First of all, just removing ads is $20. The $100 Ultra option is for a bunch of additional features like cloud sync (which is an ongoing cost, mind you). And how is it a "donation"? You're making no sense.
