I also thought you had to have a Pro license for Android to use Wi-Fi sync, but I could be mistaken. You can, however, use cloud with the free Android version (but Cloud has a cost).
These days, it's becoming more rare for software to have a one-time fee for the software and many are going to a "per year" model which drives me crazy.(One software that we paid for - Keeper for managing passwords - took away the ability to sync with their Android app from the paid version -- which is what I paid for it for, forcing people to go to a subscription model if they wanted sync. I'm still angry!) I do understand that money can be tight, but I also think it's reasonable for developers to charge for upgrades -- as long as they continue to support older versions for quite a while afterwards so people only have to upgrade if they want the new features, not be forced to upgrade for the previous software to work. (I would strongly encourage the developers to support MLO 3 syncing with upgraded mobile devices for at least a year after MLO 4 comes out, since mobile apps update automatically or with less user control). -- Lisa ------------------------------ Lisa Stroyan, mailto: [email protected] <[email protected]> -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MyLifeOrganized" group.
