Will there be a pro version of this app? I would rather that as opposed to in app purchase which seems to bug out sometimes on the previous app
IIRC the Play Store has disallowed (or heavily favors against) "duplicate" apps.
Because that means you must allow them to dig in their drm far deeper, and thus lock all your users deeper into google play over just android. Very similar to their push of safetynet and their new web drm.
In practice for users right now it means a less stable experience, and all kinds of weird problems in usecases like work profiles. Plus all the things they'll abuse this for once enshittification gets going on that section of the google play system
The dev has stated that this exact bug was fixed over a year ago. As for this version of Sync, should still be fixed, but I will remind you and anyone else reading this, this release is a BETA. There will be bugs. It's getting a lot of attention in media, so that seems to be lost in translation so to speak, but it's still not officially fully released. :)
