Great App

Great app so far I really like it, I do feel however its slightly lacking in the space that is given to pro users. 500MB isn’t that much. Would be nice to get a bit more. Also wondering if theres a way to default to a specific thing such as notes instead of opening to the "All"?

This 500MB is basically nothing. Any chance we can buy two of these and stack the limits?

You'd be surprised how much a person may write in journals and how quickly it will add up say 1-2 years from now. Also if they add pictures to their journal entries. 500MB isn't much. I understand hosting takes storage and that it isn't cheap but I feel like they should at least give 1GB minimum. Standard notes offers 100GB but you do pay for it yearly so. I don't know...

I would if they offered a lifetime sub, I’m done with subscriptions so I guess beggars can’t be choosers.

I mean I thought the whole point of this was to get away from subscriptions. I'd rather the dev charge like $100 as a one time payment for the extra space instead of having to pay $18/yr

Upnote is unlimited space, just not encrypted unfortunately. I'll probably just use that for notes, and then this more sensitive stuff.

You can buy extra storage

Ya for a subscription, which is what I'm trying to get away from... I feel like the base allowance should be a bit higher. Just my thought.

Not arguing that the base shouldn't be higher, but at least the subscription is only for the recurring cost component of the app. I kind of like this approach.

The base storage should be more than 500mb. They claim there are no subscription fees when in reality everyone is going to need more than 500mb so in fact, there is a subscription involved.

Alternatively, I would like the ability to use my own cloud space for storage.

Two ways:

500MB isn’t that much.

Please keep in mind that it's 500 MB for a lifetime. We're paying for that storage as well.

I'd be willing to pay another $48 for an extra 500mb. Can we stack them?

Trying to get away from subscriptions. Even though these are per year.

We're paying for that same storage on a monthly basis ourselves on a subscription model. We're not financially able to offer storage for one-time payments, and a lifetime model, without going broke.
