(As a side note, while the app itself is free, and all the current features will stay that way forever, some of the upcoming features use intellectual property of other creators, so we may have to charge for access to those parts of the app. We’ll do everything we can to keep prices as low as possible for users. But we don’t want to add paid features later and surprise anyone, so we wanted to let you know they were coming right up front.)
