I'm so excited to see that they've made it a single app across all platforms, supporting the same features. The biggest thing (for me) is supporting Google resources on mobile for booking rooms and the robust ability to see coworker availability. Thanks for the major upgrade!

Iβm fine with subscriptions. I just donβt think the pricing is warranted. Most others seem to be against subscriptions, period. If this was $15/year or $2/month, at least thatβs pretty low.
Drafts 5 started at $5/mo. No way I was going to pay that. Now itβs $20/year or $2/mo. I still think itβs a bit high as the app was already pretty fleshed out at Drafts 4 which was one time paid to premium features.
I think **$1-2.50/mo/$3-7.50/quarter or $10β25/year is an okay price point for a lot of these smaller apps. Maybe a higher tier thatβs a bit more. In that case, if Iβm subscribed to a dozen or so of them, thatβs say around $30/month or $300/year. Not too bad.
**I know, transaction costs get in the way of a dollar a month, but if the payment is through Apple, I donβt think it makes a difference?
Some feedback:
I'm actually just fine with the monthly subscription. However, I tried to upgrade and connect my google accounts and a whole bunch of separate google auth tabs opened in Chrome and Fantastical started to chug.
I'm not sure if it's because I had Fantastical 2 and there were existing accounts that weren't ported over properly, but it was a mess so I just abandoned it.
I guess I'll try again at some point in the future. Fantastical is a great product and I'm down to give 3 a shot.

Is there a way to get the dmg file of Fantastical 2 the Mac version? We paid for that app, and we should have the right to install it if we don't want this bullshit subscription model.
I've updated by mistake on my iPhone and now, even if I paid for the app, I have the same app as someone who never put 1cent into Fantastical apps before... Not cool honestly.
At least on the Mac is a separate app (so I won't update it by mistake)...
