![]() Tbh, I’d ne happy to pay $80 for this app up front if it was just a one time purchase. I really wish there was an option to just buy the app up front. The other major reason I’ve considered dropping Astropad, at least the studio version is that it is a little pricey. I can’t use the device without it being connected via usb because there’s is too much lag and disconnecting over WiFi. It’s been an upgrade.However, I only gave this app four stars because I’ve had some issues with connection and stability with the app. With the Apple Pencil, Astropad Studio works great and I feel zero regret letting go of the graphics tablet I’ve been using. And it’s not just a crummy, I guess your to cheap or lazy to purchase the real thing style replacement. The more functionality I can get out of a single product, the better and being able to use my iPad as a graphics tablet was HUGE. This software was one of the major reasons I was willing to purchase my iPad Pro. This month I’m dropping $100 on apps next few months could be zero. If they make the next version of these apps, I’ll happily pay again. I buy a lot of music apps, if even 10% of them were subscription based I would be paying $1,000 each month.Some of the painting apps I *bought* and enjoy are: Procreate, Affinity Photo, SketchBook (before it went free). Does it worth it? It might be to some people. And even then if you stop paying you lose it. If you use this app for 5 years you will pay $400. But the subscription model “hides” the costs making it seem less expensive. $50, $80, whatever, if it’s worth it we’ll buy it. I will only subscribe to services or content providers. All the money you paid them - gone! Subscription model for apps just doesn’t work for the consumers. ![]() Just do the math, how many subscription apps can you afford? Say you subscribe to 5 apps at $10, that’s $50 per month! If that’s your spending limit that means you can’t buy any more new apps unless you stop subscription to one of the existing apps. It’s like you’re automatically buying a new app every month. This app costs $12 per month, every month. With so many great painting apps out there that you can actually *buy* it always amazes me how these subscription apps stay in business. ![]()
