Please note this is just a beta and there are going to be bugs, but it works and it works nicely. Have fun.

I love it. Can't wait to remove ads (because it seems IAP is not here yet?)

Yeah I'm not very interested in a subscription service but I'd happily pay a larger fee upfront to remove ads forever with no extra features. I can handle settings backup/sync myself.

Edit: It's here! Instant purchase. :D

I love LJ's work and will happily remove ads from Sync when possible (even though my adblocker hides them anyway). I'm not very fond of buying Ultra, as I hate paying for something I won't use. Ironically I would rather make a recurring donation via Liberapay and get nothing out of it than pay for some functionality and feel uneasy about never using it, lol. I already support my home instance on Liberapay

The sub also gives a massive cut to Google, which is a waste of money

It's 15%, since LJ makes less than a million a year

This is the only part of ultra that actually bothers me. I grabbed it primarily to support the development. And I'd be much more happy about it if 100% went to the creator. But app stores remove any apps that tell you how to pay a different way. So there could be a way and the app simply isn't allowed to tell us.
