Formulify: Formula Widgets Kit

The lifetime purchase would be worth it if the scheduling was accurate. It’s saying that this weekend in Baku is a sprint weekend when that just isn’t true. It wouldn’t be that bad if it was just mislabeled but the timing for the “sprint” (what is actually qualifying) is and hour and a half late! This isn’t the first time this has happened I’ve missed multiple qualifyings because of it, any fan would find this annoying and I don’t think I’m being a Karen about this. I love the WDC and WCC widgets they are amazing and quick to update I just wish the false schedule would be fixed just as fast

Disclaimer, I work in software and am 100% for supporting developers financially for their work. Last year I purchased premium for this app even though I didn’t need the extra features just because I appreciated the work so much. As the app developed more, I happily found myself using some of the premium widgets. The developer has since changed the pricing structure and gated widgets I already paid to have access to. This is simply bad business. You don’t take things away from customers who already paid for them. It is perfectly normal to change the pricing model for new customer. It is also perfectly normal to create new tiers of features to incentivize up-selling, but changing the pricing structure to block content that customers already paid for is poor form. This is a fantastic app and I applaud the developer for their work but I cannot recommend paying them at this point. You have no guarantee that what you pay for won’t be taken from you if they decide to change up their pricing model again. I would change my opinion if the developer made things right for everyone who already purchased but until then, my recommendation is to go with one of several competing apps.

Look, it’s a great app. I’ve used it for a while exclusively for the lockscreen widgets. About a month ago the dev seemingly decided out of nowhere to paywall all the features behind a premium subscription with zero announcement, update notes or warning. This was met with fairly harsh criticism, justifiably so. It led me to check out alternative apps, of which there are many. Fortunately it seems the dev backed off this stance rather quickly and restored the previous free widgets. They still have not addressed it. It really is one of the best apps for what it does, but just know that at any moment that could happen again. It’s nice to know your options. That said, as it currently stands, it’s a solid app and I recommend.
