Heads up he just added that to beta 25 which is now available on the play store.

Or it's going to be available soon? I'm actually not sure the status as I've updated but still only see the two options, but his recent comments indicate he's added that.

Ah, found it. If you're not subscribed to ultra there's a separate "remove ads" option that you pay separately for.

Incredibly fucking expensive in my location. I don't know if it's defaulting to the subscription or something, but it's about 15x cost of my Pro purchase from several years ago.

For ultra or just the ad removal?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

When I clicked the "Remove ads" option, so not Ultra. It's possible they're linked, which would explain the price.

$20 to remove ads, $100 for Ultra.

Yeah. In my location, it's a bit closer to $25 when taking forex into account.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

For me it's $20.

$20 to remove the ads

$99 for lifetime "ultra" which removes ads, comes with cloud storage for settings I guess? And all sorts of other bells and whistles that rely on cloud services to work.

Seems decent to me, considering the subscription for a year is $20, if you need those things.

But removing ads for $20 is all I need.
