## Review summary

Reviews overwhelmingly condemn HTML Editor for gating access behind a weekly subscription. The core issues are an unblockable paywall/pop-up, deceptive free-vs-paid advertising, and a high price that many feel is not worth it. Several users report being unable to test or use the app meaningfully without paying, and note the pricing shift from a past free version to subscription. Overall, the consensus is that the app is not worth the cost given the current model and experience.

### Cons

- Weekly subscription fee (~$3.99/week) required to use the app; reviewers say it isn't free.
- Unclosable paywall pop-up that interrupts usage and cannot be dismissed; forces subscription or prevents further use.
- Advertising claims the app is free, but users must pay to unlock features; perceived deceptive.
- Pricing regarded as expensive and not worth it; several note the annual cost can reach around $200.
- App shifted from a free version to a subscription model; users feel previous free access was removed.
