Paying for custom keyboard?

Hi,
I just opened FlickType and went to the upgrade tab. I see that when it’s released, FlickType will require a monthly $0.99 subscription. I don’t understand why this is. Can you please explain why you feel this is necessary, & consider making it a 1-time purchase? A lot of us, myself included, have limited funding available, and can only use iTunes cards to purchase items from the App Store and iTunes. When paying for a subscription, that funding disappears very quickly. Thanks for your understanding, Jessica

As we have a developing product that we will be making considerable updates and improvements to, coupled with a small market, an ongoing subscription model is the best way to ensure that the project is sustainable and will be around for a long time. This, as well as the fact that we want to ensure everyone is paying for what they’re using and not paying a one time purchase for a product that they don't use a year or two down the road, we feel that a subscription is best for everyone. That being said, things are not set in stone as we are going to be fluid and adaptable to the circumstances. Please let us know if you have any other questions, Ashley Chuck Pleez x cuze enny tie ping or spelin air ores.

Hello,

When Fleksy first came out I paid nineteen dollars and ninety nine cents as a one time purchase price. Unfortunately, even this high purchase price did not generate enough revenue to sustain the app, so they released it to the general public. In order to please the masses the developers had to make Fleksy appear more like a qwerty keyboard, which made Fleksy almost impossible for the visually impaired to operate. As you can see, a one time purchase price will have to be very expensive to fund ongoing improvements, maintenance and other languages. Ninety nine cents a month is surely affordable for anyone who owns an iPhone and will generate a steady revenue flow, so FlickType will not end up in the scrap heap like Fleksy. Chuck PS. Three and a half cents a day seems like a steal for a handful of magic. 😎
