I'm using Sync right now and honestly it's not much better than thunder or Connect which are free. The UI is slicker, but I feel my phone heating as it runs, and it's obnoxious seeing the gray boxes from the ads I'm blocking. Really hope boost doesn't pull this shit, or at least allows people to play for premium instead of fucking subscribing to it. $16 a YEAR for an app that just mobilizes a free online service is insanity.
I never used sync previously, but this has made a pretty bad first impression so far.
I used Sync pro for years and I don't ever want to change. Also I like supporting devs of apps which I use constantly. I don't know why everyone is talking shit about Sync as 16 dollars a year is literally nothing. Good on him for having that option to support the dev :)
$16 a year is not nothing, it's a subscription service for a basic mobile app with quality options in a competing space. A one time purchase that means I own the app outright or a lifetime "subscription" option is a much better option, and on par with literally every competing app in the space. Mentalities like this are why shit like NBA 2K, Call of Duty, and Diablo have become lootbox fests.
