First of all , i really appreciate the efforts put by Thunkable platform to provide such a good platform to develop apps.
I came to know about the about the upcoming Thunkable pro paid program. im from the initital days when thunkable was started. i would like to give my feedback for upcoming pro platform.
Its not a good idea to introduce paid things on such platforms. Thunkable is already earning from 5% commission of each app developed on their platform from day 1 . Thousands of developers are there on thunkable and multiple thousands apps are there. so i hope thunkable must be from there.
Most of the developers are students so they wont be able to pay $100 an year. mostly from India.
The other developing platforms are free of cost ( they dont even take commission ) so after releasing the pro version , developers will move to other platforms .
I would suggest to keep it free of cost as well … Doesnt matters if you take commission or not.
Thanks for the understanding and never mind for any misunderstandings.
Hi, let me disagree with your opinion. Thunkable X is free to create public projects and for this reason any student and anyone can create applications for free. If a developer makes a commercial project, then he pays for the opportunity to make it private - this is common practice. If you mean AppyBuilder, on which some time ago they tried to take money for a gold account, then this is another story. In Thunkable X, the full functionality is free for public applications, and their full functionality cost 7$ per month, so almost no one used it and AppyBuilder was then also made free.
What if you just wanna make a nice little app for your family, not really intended to go public to everyone perhaps an inside joke app that would rather be better off private not public.
Thank you very much for 90 days trial of Thunkable Pro. Moroever, is it possible to add Thunkable/App Inventor Extensions inside Thunkable X or use the Bluetooth Low Energy ( Bluetooth LE, BLE) inside Thunkable X?
