Change Photo Colors

I hate this app Because you have to pay for everything

… it just needs to work well and be worth what they think we’ll fork out. I've had this app for *years* but haven't been doing any color splash work for a long time. Today, I have a project, and I'm checking out my apps - to find out that the price of this has shot up tremendously. $30 for a year‽ No way to own‽ I could dig through my records for what the cost was when I last used it, just to see how absurd it has become, but I'll probably just move on to my other similar apps to find one that's reasonably priced for the functions available. At least some developers grandfather in users who have had the app for years- but nope. Not these guys. I'm all for a living wage, don't get me wrong, but the cost of doing business surely hasn't gone up so much that every developer “needs” to charge $25-$50+ annually sometimes without even an option to buy. This isn't an all-around editor- it changes colors and adds some gimmicks. Wouldn't it be nice if Apple or Google add Color Splash and/or Recolor to their basic editors? Once upon a time they didn't include a crop tool (not that some huge %age of people seem to know how to use it!) and other tools I had to buy. I don't care for monopolies but if developers are acting in concert with each other on the cost of apps (and g-d subscriptions!) there may as well be one already.

The free version won’t even let you load a photo. It just keeps showing another ad, then returning you to a screen that says something about picking up where you left off. Then it shows another ad. If that’s how they treat someone trying to test out the app, I have zero interest in going further. They’re also asking quite a high price for an app that does so little. An unpleasant experience in every way.
