I was planning to wait and see what Boost has to offer before deciding if I should pay $20 to remove ads on Sync, but seeing this has convinced me to delete the app for good. Even Reddit isn’t half as bad as Sync when it comes to trackers and shady ads.
The way it is currently:
You use the app for free, and the creator turns on ads to make money from his work. Ads always have trackers, that’s just how they work.
You pay $20 and never see ads again
You pay $15 a month or $100 a year to remove ads and get extra advanced features most users will never need.
What more options do you want to pay someone for a full time app development job?
