What led to the decision to lock previously-accessible features (notifications and multiple accounts, specifically) behind a subscription paywall for those early customers that previously purchased the app? I ask because it's specifically against the Apple TOS for the App Store to require additional payment for previously included features (check out Airmail's kerfluffle for reference -- they ended up having to create a separate system to restore Push Notifications to those customers who had previously bought the 1-time purchase version of the app). I urge you to consider grandfathering in those customers who purchased the app at full price -- that's how this kind of transition is usually handled, in my experience. Also for what it's worth: I read your comment about the complaints, but all I see are complaints about losing features behind a new paywall. That's very different from complaining about a subscription model -- that's merely complaining about what is effectively a bait-n-switch.

Hey everyone! 👋 Mast is a beautiful Mastodon app built with iOS design guidelines in mind. It’s as feature-packed as it is gorgeous. The stunning timelines make reading the latest content a joy. Mast is also fully optimised for iOS 13 with dark mode and context menu support. It also has Today Extensions, Share Extensions, iMessage Stickers, a Watch app, Siri Shortcuts, and an iPad app. I hope you enjoy using Mast. 💙 “What is Mastodon?”, you may ask. It’s a federated and decentralised social network. Think of it as email, where you can choose your provider, yet talk with almost anyone from anywhere regardless of their choices. The instances on Mastodon give users freedom to find their community, whilst allowing everyone to talk with each other with the level of visibility that they want. The content warning feature makes it safer, and the increased character count makes it far more expressible. It’s what microblogging should have always been. 🤭 I'm constantly evolving and crafting Mast to create the perfect Mastodon app for you. If you have any suggestions or feedback, I'd love to hear it! 😄

Do you have any documentation on the type, amount, and frequency of data sent back to you? Analytics, user behavior, user-specific (private) data?

@alex_wykoff Absolutely nothing is sent back to me. I don't use any third-party data or analytics frameworks.

@edisonjoao6871 I got a massive amount of 1 star reviews after launch all complaining about the same thing: That I changed to a subscription model.

@ehhblinkin There's arguably far too many to list, so it's probably more fun to discover them for yourself whilst using it!
