Is $115 an exaggeration? Not trying to start an argument, just curious.

The Sync dev is currently charging $20 USD to remove ads, or $100 for a lifetime subscription to "Ultra" which includes some additional features. I have to say, the app is really nice, but the dev is out of his mind.

Wow yeah $100 is steep. I’m not even sure if I would have paid $100 for Apollo for Reddit in its prime…

And there are more pricing models to come, confirmed by the dev already.

And also, get this.... it's FREE to use. No one is forcing any money out of your pocket.

Your passive-aggressiveness is very off-putting.

With that being said, it's not FREE to use if I'm getting ads, I'm just paying with something other than money. I'll continue to use one of the many alternatives.

So are heaps of other apps that gasp DO NOT HAVE ADS
