No doubt levels of support will increase dramatically for us but that’s part of the trade-off of having successful, thriving software. There are lots of risks with moving to this type of revenue model, but version 4 of Twitterrific was by far our most successful and that version was supported by ad revenue from The Deck.
The Iconfactory’s Gedeon Maheux published his thoughts on the new strategy in a separate blog post:
#TWITTERRIFIC MAC MANAGE LISTS UPDATE#
The update also includes some improvements including upping the number of tweets the timeline can hold to 500, something users have been requesting more and more. Our hope is that this helps get Twitterrific into more people’s hands than ever before so they can enjoy the simple beauty of reading and posting tweets once again. Twitterrific has been available in the App Store since day one and we’ve experimented with different revenue models in the past, including the one we’re returning to today. For those who have been around to witness Twitterrific’s evolution through the years, this move actually marks the return of The Iconfactory’s client to a freemium business model with ads.
With the latest 5.7 update released today, Twitterrific for iOS, The Iconfactory’s popular Twitter client, has gone freemium: the app is now free to download with In-App Purchases to unlock more features and remove ads from the app.
