My feed has been flooded with posts about the Sync app released for Android, with a lot of hype but also some complaints regarding pricing, ads, privacy, etc.

This made me really appreciate Memmy, with which I have had no issues so far, and am impressed with how clean and easy it has been to use despite being new.

So that’s all, just a huge thank you.

I've never used anything sync before a few hours ago (prior was in bacon reader for 8 years but it doesn't look like they're interested in making another app), I've been using it for 2 of the last 3 hours, no obvious phone heat at all on my s22+ that likes to heat randomly. So maybe sync fixed my phone heating issues? XD to each our own, but I'm pretty sold so far on sync, and their "ads" aren't showing up as anything except blank spaces (this will undoubtedly be fixed). I think I got bacon reader for a steal at 2$ (and whatever personal information they were harvesting) and I think sync for 1 time payment of 20$will yield similar happiness.

Yeah I used boost, paid for premium and used it for years. Will be more than happy to do so again once it's out but I'm not into this subscribing to an app bullshit. Let me pay for it outright. I am not down to rent apps any more than I am okay with renting the phone it runs on.
