spouted as ad free, but contains ads

Open davior opened this issue 1 year ago • 5 comments

Ok, I'm not sure if I'm missing something but the catch phrase itself for this app says without ads.. and it says it's ad free in the description. So I was confused when I loaded it and the first thing I saw was an ad banner..

Then I went into a screen and got a full page ad!

I know your have a pricey registration to remove ads (22$ per week!?) But don't you think you are misrepresenting your product?

I'm not against Devs making money, but there's no need to say something if it's not correct. Am I missing something?

@davior lol so it finally happened. May you post screenshot of the 22 dolars? SMT apps were sold to ad company. Fork is here https://github.com/FossifyOrg

Ahha! Congrats on the sale! See I thought there must be an explanation which is why I asked if I was missing something... So yes, they are cashing in big time by the look... Can't say it won't scare everyone away...
