Thanks for the response. Maybe I’m remembering the features being moved incorrectly. Regardless, I did feel cheated because I had just paid money for the app and now it was asking me to pay more money for what I thought I had just bought.
I didn’t realize this was open source (maybe it wasn’t 2 years ago?). Also, it was 2 years ago. There’s no way to get a refund from apple.
I’ll be honest, I just wanted to caution people so that they knew it had to be paid for twice. However, I see that it is now free from the App Store with an in app pay to upgrade. That’s definitely better than the experience that I had. So good job changing that.
Edit: it isn’t free on the apple app store. I failed to realize that I t shows as free for me because I already purchased it of course.
Maybe it's cause I had earlier experimented with a subscription instead of paying once for the new features.
Shoot me an email please, I'll provide you with some coupon codes so you can get the pro features without paying, just in case you want to try it out again.
Also, the entire source code (pro features as well) are completely open source.
Regardless, I'm not happy that you feel cheated. Is there someway to ask Apple for a refund?
