Hi all, It's unfortunate that this is a new subscription model for New users but I understand developers need to get paid for their work for such app. Considering Voice Dream inclusiveness with Accessibility, it's worth supporting in my opinion if you use the app daily. They get continuous updates and the app is very robust. There are other apps that do similar things like speech central and speechify. I did a bit of research and this is what I found...
11 months ago Hi all, Voice Dream Team here. Existing users should not be affected and will continue to have access to the app. We are migrating to a subscription model only for new users.

I could afford it, but it is still way too high for an app on an Apple device. As mentioned before, the average price of most apps usable with IOS devices is between five and ten dollars US. Allowing for the smaller market, I could easily pay double yearly, but not sextuplet!

They aren't also considering that a large number of blind people aren't able to find jobs in the USA. More over if it were more reasonably priced maybe and it’s a big maybe. It would be a big maybe because the only reason they would lower the price is they terribly misjudged the market. -----Original Message----- From: viphone@googlegroups.com <viphone@googlegroups.com> On Behalf Of regina alvarado Sent: Monday, March 25, 2024 4:17 PM To: Viphone <viphone@googlegroups.com> Subject: Making everyone pay for voice dream Just received a message voice dream is going to cost 59 dollars a year now. A pet peeve of mine is everything requires a subscription. I see nothing in there reasons for this that affects me. So, nice I had it for so long. It was a wonderful app, but I am done with it. As with MBraille I was one of the first to buy it for I think 5 dollars. Makes me want to cry to lose it, but much more important places to put my money. On Social Security with a guide dog and so guess it goes away. Still want to cry after all the books from Bookshare it has read to me.
