Afternoon everyone,

I wanted to go over a few points related to pricing, stats and the roadmap

Pricing

  1. Sync for Lemmy is completely free with ads (the same as Sync for Reddit)

  2. You can remove ads in the account picker or drawer for a one time fee of ~$20

  3. Sync Ultra also removes ads but it’s not required

  4. I’ll be working on regional prices over the coming weeks

There are now 24k installed users up from 100 the previous day!

I’m going to be spending the next few days going through all of the comments / messages and fixing any crashes.

As always thanks for the support and hope you’re liking Sync!

Lj

    It’s the best app but the pricing is insane. I mean, maybe you have experience from your other apps and you know this is the optimal price, but otherwise, consider changing it. People are surprised by the high price right now.

    If it was me, I would price it like this:

    • Remove ads - $10 lifetime.

    • Ultra - $3 per month, $20 per year, $50 lifetime.

    Those sums are realistic and people are likely to find them acceptable. You would get more users instead of less users paying more.

    But this is just me and I speak only as someone who never had an app in a appstore. Maybe you know better. But that’s what I would do.

        I dont buy Starbucks, and I won’t buy a 20€ Ad-Removal. It is simply to much. 5 would be an instant buy, 10€ may have been ok.

        I bought both pro and dev back on the day, and I expected a similar price.
