Well I've done it. If you're a long time reader of this blog, you may have noticed that I have had tendencies to start projects without ever finishing them. Sometimes due to the size of the project being far to big for me, or because the concept has never panned out. And sometimes, the project never had the intention of being released in the first place.
Well today, I've reached a new milestone. My app, Picasa Hub + Backup, has now been released to the masses for the low low price of FREE. If you are an active Picasa user, or have just come over from competing platforms, then Picasa Hub + Backup should provide you with everything you need to keep enjoying the service. At the moment the application is ad-supported to (hopefully) help pay for my Windows Phone Store membership, but there will be an option in the near future to remove ads for a small price in select countries.
If you're a member of the press and I have failed to contact you, please download the press-kit from the website and let me know if you write a review (good or bad). And of course, everyone should go out and download it now for FREE.
So what's next? Well I will be working on a new app, which will hopefully be released a lot sooner, along with an update to Picasa Hub + Backup to bring new features (which may be related to the new app).
So go download Picasa Hub + Backup, tell your friends and family and write positive reviews...
Hi! I love your app... When will be available the pay option for no ads?
ReplyDeleteHi, I'm glad you love my application. A lot of work has gone into it, and when people say kind words such as yours, it makes it worth it. I have looked into offering a "no ads" pay option within the application, but I have wanted to get the application into a stable state before offering it. Unfortunately, not every user has been having a great experience like yourself and I wouldn't feel right charging people when this is the case. A new update should be released soon, which fixes a lot of the reported bugs. After that, I will evaluate if is the right time to release a "no ads" pay option.
DeleteThank you for your interest,
Dave
