I saw an app in ios app store that charges you 99 cents for 200 uses, at which time, i can only assume, you need to spend another 99 cents to continue to use it another 200 times. Also, according to the description, there are other features in the app that you need to pay to unlock. How anyone can be proud of using this as a business model is beyond my comprehension. I’d rather pay 20€ for an app i use a few dozen times and get bored of than support this soulless cash grab. FOR SHAME!
