notability道歉了 -k8凯发天生赢家

据新浪科技,誉为笔记神器的notability app,原先是买断制而近日更新后,变成了订阅制。此前买断制的用户只提供免费的1年订阅,后续需要交80元/年,引发大量用户不满。

 

随后,notability官方致歉:2021年11月1日转订阅制之前买断的用户可以终身使用现有功能和之前在应用中购买的任何内容,包括无限次编辑、icloud同步等,以及之前通过notability shop购买的任何功能或内容。

 

无注释原文:

 

updates to notability 11.0 subscription

yesterday, we made a big announcement regarding our transition to a free app with an optional subscription. we heard the disappointment from our existing customers, and we want to correct our course.

today, we are making some changes (coming soon in notability version 11.0.2). everyone who purchased notability prior to our switch to subscription on november 1st, 2021 will have lifetime access to all existing features and any content previously purchased in the app.

this includes the core notability experience that users know and love, including unlimited editing, icloud sync, and any features or content that was previously purchased through the notability shop. future features we develop may also be included, depending on their complexity and cost to maintain.

we are a small company, so we designed the original one-year access plan as a precautionary measure since we were not certain if we could support lifetime access. we sincerely apologize for putting our current users in this position.

without you, we would not have reached this point. we deeply value each and every one of you. your feedback powers notability and has helped shape the app into what it is today. thank you.

sincerely,

the notability team ?
