Lovely App, but expensive and buggy

Wonderfully designed, but the subscription fee is pretty hefty for what it is. I wouldn't mind so much if it didn't crash constantly

Developer Response ,

Thanks for trying, sorry you are seeing crashes.

Generally I think Bike is a very stable app. The latest release does have one known crashing case ... when it autocorrects a short word to a longer word when you are typing at the end of a line. I've fixed that for next release. If the crash that you see isn't that one please report it in Bike support forums.

Also note that there is a non-subscription version available on my website.
