Et tu, Pixomatic? – Pixomatic - AI Photo BG Eraser Review

Okay, this isn’t about performance—Pixomatic is an excellent app, which I have thoroughly enjoyed and regularly used. The one star is to protest an increasingly dishonest practice developers have of double-charging existing purchasers. I paid full price for the product, which was $5.99, and now I have to shell out $29.99 (never mind that entire list of confusing in-app purchases—I’ll be honest FOR them: it’s $3.99 for a one week trial; $29.99 for a year membership...period)? At the very least, members should be offered even a token discount to reward their earlier support—as a former business owner, the most important thing a business owner can do is to make sure their customers are happy and go out of your way to encourage loyalty. SPOILER: shaking them down for a LOT more money ain’t it. To be fair, Pixomatic isn’t the only app pulling this very unethical stunt...and I delete every app when it happens. If everybody did the same they wouldn’t use these unethical, shady shakedowns. It’s a shame. This was one of my favorite apps...but I’ll be damned if I’m going to pay $29.99 (you’re not even given a monthly option!) without being either grandfathered in or giving at least a token $5.99 discount deducted from the total to show appreciation for supporting their business from the beginning. Sigh. Deleted.
