I use the website and there are ads.
Do you have a screenshot and link of the page?
Trakt is roughly $2.50 A MONTH and that’s still ONLY if you want to pay that.
I’ve definitely spent more on coffee more times than I can count so I don’t mind paying the cost.
The simple thing is if you don’t want it, you don’t have to have it.
$2.50 only for old VIPs…
That may be however even at $5 right now that’s £3.84 GBP a month which is less than a large coffee…so my point still stands. I don’t mind paying for someone or a teams hard effort is what I’m saying. especially if it’s a product I use, time is money after all. Old VIPs have also been paying for longer so if anything newer members are just playing catch up…
Maybe another option where you get less features might solve that then? I’m not taking sides. Just merely giving my opinion.
Ads for Trakt on Trakt don’t count as ads…
Regional VIP pricing is now available in iOS.
there are no third party ads on trakt at all. and like someone else mentioned trakt advertising trakt doesn’t count
You don’t have it so bad. I live in Canada and recently paid my $60. and got charged $90.02 Canadian. I have removed auto renewal and will see what the exchange rate is at that time. I didn’t mind the $60, but I do object to the $90.
What was the score before the price change?
There were more unpopular changes recently, so it’s hard to tell what caused this effect.
I hope all the “1” ratings closed their Trakt accounts. I wouldn’t use any app I rated a 1 even if it was free.
This is Google Play rating. Does not really prove anything really as iOS app stands at 4.5 so…
I apologize immediately for my bad English. I have been using Trakt for 13 years. I would like to say a huge thank you to the team for the excellent service. Of course it was unpleasant to learn about the new restrictions. I work in the sphere related to websites, so I understand very well how expensive it can be to maintain servers and support such a product.
But for my region the price of VIP is really quite expensive. And I don’t even have the opportunity to pay directly, and I don’t think there will be regional prices for me in the near future.
I also understand that the subscription should cost a certain amount, so that the number of VIP users to cover the costs.
But maybe it makes sense to think about a super lite version of the subscription for around 1$ where there will be nothing - Reviews, Stats, Autotracking, Filtering, Backups, Export even Lists and Collections. Just unlimited Watchlist.
It is clear that there are those features in VIP for the sake of which most people buy a subscription, and it is most likely Lists, Collections, maybe Filters and adding such a tariff will probably break the economy, but without Watchlist the service becomes almost unusable.
I am willing to pay $30 per year, the problem is that I made the first subscription through Google Play via the app and when I canceled the subscription because I wanted to pay annually and not monthly, the subscription went back to $60 instead of $30, $60 is too much, a shame
I currently only have 1 day of VIP left.
