Budget Flow | Трекер расходо‪в‬ 4+

Попробовал это приложение - выглядит хорошо, вполне себе быстро работает. НО цена в 5000 рублей за него - это вау, даже если учитывать цену в долларах 50$ это как-то круто. Стоило бы 10-20$ - уже бы стояла очередь отдать денег, а так - денег не останется для учёта(

Hello petrolheadov,
thank you for your feedback on the app.

I thought for a long time about how to price the app and finally decided on a mix of a subscription model with a one-time purchase option, as my goal from the beginning was to create a high quality app that would provide you with new features and improvements on a regular basis. However, to achieve this goal, the app needs continuous revenue to be self-financing and economically sustainable.

As I am aware that not all users want to subscribe a software, I also offer the option of a one-time purchase in addition to the subscription. The price for the one-time purchase is in the middle price segment of expense tracking apps and is around 2.5 times the price of the annual subscription. A one-time purchase price that is too low (e.g. 10-20$) would unfortunately not be sustainable in the long term, as this business model would require new users to keep buying the app in order to ensure further development. Especially in the area of "finance", user acquisition is unfortunately associated with very high costs due to the many fintechs and banks, which is not financially viable for an indie developer like me and I therefore rely on a long-term customer relationship.

In addition, I offer discounts for individuals, such as students or people with financial difficulties, to make the app more accessible to them. If you qualify, please contact me via the "Contact Developer" button in the app.

I hope that the explanation of how the price was calculated is understandable and look forward to hearing from you soon :)

Best regards
Fabian

I like the app, but what’s the point of having REQUIRED category for transfer? Cmon, I don’t need a separate entity for transferring money between my accounts.

Hi lichb0rn,
thank you for your feedback. I am very happy that you like the app in general! 😊

Regarding the category, I have already received feedback from other users, which is why I have made it optional for all transactions in the latest update (1.5.7). If you like the change, I would love to get the full 5 stars from you. That would really help me a lot :)

Best regards
Fabian
