      This really irks me. Paid, and then they make the app shitter and put basic functions behind the paywall.

      I would gladly pay for a new and improved version of the app (likely every now and again I admit).

      I will never pay for a PDF editor on a subscription basis.

        Yeah, absolutely not. Drawboard was cool. It was a real loss. And also infuriating that I “bought” it, only to have the app lock me out of “premium” features later.
