Linking a message saying that someone was temporarily suspended doesn’t sway me especially when I see apps on the store that have both paid and free versions of their apps like the app I linked earlier. If they and others can do it, why can’t the dev for Sync?
Now if someone could share a link to a policy document by Google saying “You cannot have both a paid version and an unpaid version of an app on the play store” then I would be very happy to be corrected here and I will happily adapt my stance to support that. (Seriously, I don’t mind being corrected – I’d just prefer something official from Google.)
And so it’s a deal breaker for me. And while I never used Sync for Reddit, I am thankful to all the app creators for helping the community often out of pocket and/or while being severely underpaid for years. And I hope this dev will do well financially with other users who have loyalty or different priorities than I concerning privacy and transparency.
Yeah I agree re opaque policies as if someone can get suspended for this, it would be nice if it was easy to find a policy regarding it. Thanks for your response.
