UPDATE: The developer fixed the problem I outlined below - but I’ve since moved on to other apps, so they’ve lost me forever as a customer when they made this really poor decision described below. ![]() The account creation is not even mentioned in the "what’s new" notes. These types of tactics really bother me when they're for software I’ve already paid for, so I’m giving it one star until they remove that requirement. I considered the old version a five-star program for what it was, but the new update appears to force the creation of an account to continue to use the software. If you need more income, make a paid upgrade version - it’s so much better than giving up more data in this day and age. Please, just make the registration optional - I’m not going to make an account for an app I purchased years ago and so the money I originally paid for is otherwise a waste. UPDATE #1: They now mention the registration requirement in the “what’s new” release notes, but the reasons they give aren’t great in my opinion. It gives me hope when companies buck the trend to collect more data (or open the door for this data collection), and I’m more than happy to give the program a five-star rating now that they have removed this requirement. I’m very pleased to say that the developer has listened to the user base and removed the mandatory account creation. ![]()
