Same here! Very interesting until I realized it's subscription based. Apps should have a one time cost and maybe costs for major updates. I can't even see the reason to have a recurring fee, why?
- gergles 15y agoI assume their justification are the push notification servers, though that's a bit thin for my taste.
- intranation 15y agoBecause it's not an app in the regular sense, it's an email filtering and tagging web service. You'd be paying for their servers crunching your emails over the time you were subscribed to them. Edit: From their FAQ: Mail Pilot is more than an app; it's a comprehensive online software service. It runs on servers, and delivers and syncs content between every Mail Pilot app that you might use. You can access Mail Pilot through a number of desktop, native mobile, and web applications. To make this possible, Mail Pilot adds services to your existing mail accounts that it syncs between all of your devices. Our servers store metadata about your messages (not the messages themselves, however!) to bring to you the reimagination of email that so many have come to love. Mail clients can get away with charging one time. Our apps are all free, but the service is paid for, much like other online productivity and email enhancement services.
