I’m curious what is the overall roadmap for Bean in the future. I know both Android and iOS are in the plans.

  1. Is iPadOS version under consideration?
  2. What about macOS? If no macOS, will it be allowed to run on Macs as an iPadOS or iOS app?
  3. Will it be free?

    Great questions! After iOS is feature complete, I plan to work on the iPad experience more.

    After that, I also plan to look at an Android version.

    I’m not yet decided on the monetisation route. I’ve put a lot of work into the app so far and would like to dedicate time to it moving forwards so the app likely won’t be free.

    I think the route is probably free with so features (themes, icons, etc) paywalled but I’m open to thoughts on it.

      Please also consider adding a lifetime-one time purchase option. Willing to pay a good sum for a lifetime purchase.

      I’d pay for a subscription if it means you can continue to work on the apps full time.

      Although, I’m curious as to how it’d work with android app in the mix. Would mean an external service if you’d want to include on universal sub plan.
