I’ve registered for the app already. Every day I check Google Play for available app updates. I’ll see a notification that there are several apps with updates available… but it’s never Boost… such disappointment every time. Haha!

In all honesty, I can’t wait for the app to come out. Take your time, do it right. And don’t do what Sync did… I’ll just leave it at that.

    Yeah. Sync works well, I’m using it right now. But it was always my second favorite Reddit client after Boost and that pricing is just ridiculous.

    I have bought the “Pro” version of just about every single Reddit client, but 22€ to remove ads that aren’t even working on my device is just ridiculous. And all the interesting features are paywalled behind the Ultra subscription anyway.

    Can’t wait for Boost.

      In my country it’s 117 dollars for lifetime Ultimate. 117 dollars. I don’t even know what the most expensive app I’ve ve bought cost me. Maybe 8 or 9? Was prob a game for my son. Probably one he spent 15 minutes playing. To somehow end up making it feel like a worse purchase than that is a pretty good achievement.

        22€ is the “remove the ads I’m blocking anyway” price, no extra features. That’s the one I usually always pay, for every app with a one-time-purchase ad-removal option. Because I really hate ads, don’t like to have adware on my phone and I don’t like not paying anything since my adblockers are really effective.

        The “Ultra-Lifetime-Option” is 110€, which comes to $162 CAD or two Baldur’s Gates or two Unraid OS lifetime licenses.

            4.99 without a coupon, but there’s always a coupon. Last time I had one I paid one Euro.

            So this license is 22 Big Macs, or 110 Big Macs with coupons.
