Hello, I'm new to the forum and thinking about getting SkyDemon to run on my new iPad. I will probably get the 30 day trial first to try it out, however I been talking to a couple of people who already have SkyDemon and they say it's the best GPS investment they have made, so I'm likely to buy a subscription after the 30 days. Before I do I have the following questions:

1. What does the initial subscription include that the renewal does not? I'm assuming this is the case because it costs more.

2. If for some reason I decide not to renew the subscription at the end of the subscription year will the GPS Navigation/Chart etc still function, just with out the updates?

That's a pretty standard software subscription model.

The change you want from a business model perspective would be to charge the same each year, which is fine but would obviously mean a higher renewal cost.

Subscription software is a much better way to sell complex software as it allows ongoing funding for new development work. i think Skydemon have their pricing about bang on - just over the cost of an hours flying for most of us...
