Even though I don’t have apple products, I thought this was interesting. I was hoping for an android equivilant.
Until I got to the point where it has ads. And if you want to remove them, it’s $20 a year, or $80 one time fee forever. But I would bet that $80 is tied to the device, not to you.
Meaning even if you bought your phone brand new today, and the phone just launched today, you’re still going to buy a new phone in 4 years. And when that happens, that $80 is like it never happened.
And all of that in itself overlooks the fact that paying to remove ads is insane to begin with.
I’ll just wait for a different way, without ads.

In my experience, the “lifetime” fees are tied to the Apple ID, so it should move devices with you, so long as you have access to that Apple account. And if not, that’s at least how it works on Android.
Not to say the price is fair at $80…I think before the Reddit 3rd party stuff, I’d paid for a fair few Reddit apps for no ads, but it was to support a product I liked, and it was maybe $6 at most for it per app. I probably wouldn’t go above $15, and it would have to be a really good app…

In fact, as a backer of the original Kickstarter, I’m told that the lifetime benefit I got is across all devices in my account.
