Cannot get past the paywall

in in-app purchases it states that the blink shell classic is $0, but at the start nagscreen only the pay versions are offered and cannot close it.

skinc0ffin ,

this freemium is terrible

if you dont want to loose ssh shell during a configuration or drop your phone while shaking it to earn more time to use the app, avoid this!
actually this guy made me buy for a decent amout of money the legacy version then dropped support for this annoying freemium app. terrible in many ways!
