Exciting to see innovation in the note-taking and brainstorming space. Too bad I've decided that the subscription model has got to go, so I'm not interested in using the 'free' side of anything with that model. How else should I fight against it?
Goodnotes knows how to keep users like me happy. Pay once for core functionality and unlimited "objects," and be smarter about monetization beyond that. I started with Notability, and after barely getting the hang it was already nagging me to pay monthly.
As it sits, I think developers are missing out on some of their best users and best feedback, but they do it to themselves by adopting these models without understanding the risks, and scaring away their best customers.
