So how much is it for those of us non iOS people?


Anyone should be able to view it, even without an Apple account: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/three-cells-your-life-system/i... (bottom right):

> Three Cells Weekly $2.99

> Lifetime Access to Three Cells $29.99

> Three Cells Weekly $2.99

The ratio here feels a bit off, $155.48/y or $29.99 for life screams "trying to push you to pay a lot for an app I know you won't stick with" rather than "we've got great value options for any type of user". There is a 7 day trial as well, so even more confusing as to which kind of user is supposed to want the weekly payment.


Insanely expensive weekly subscriptions are the new (scammy) meta in B2C apps. I find it off-putting as well.


People are just hoping they can skip from "hobby project" all the way to a project that funds a couple salaries just by overcharging for subscriptions. Apps that are meant to cater towards unorganized people are the worst for this because they know you won't stick with it. A week trial is just short of how long you'll likely use it before you forget or realize it's not working for you.


My guess is it’s unavailable since it’s an iOS app


I meant how much is it since I can't install it to find out
