@gedeonm @KingShawn @pschiller #Cardhop by #Flexibits (makers of #Fantastical) has you covered: https://flexibits.com/cardhop

Strangely, I don’t think the company themselves are on Mastodon.

Jumping from $40/year to $57/year for a calendar + contacts app combo still stings, no matter how nice and frequently-updated they are. Even if it does amortize to $4.75 a month.

#Flexibits does a good job summarizing what a premium #subscription gets you, at least: https://flexibits.com/pricing

My mistake, #Flexibits did in fact email me and presumably other #Fantastical users in December that its premium subscription price would increase: “Due to #inflation and rising costs, this is the first time we have needed to increase pricing since #FlexibitsPremium launched 3 years ago. The new annual pricing will be $56.99 (US) — an increase of $1.42/month (US). Other currencies may differ slightly.”

Still a bit of a shock this morning from #Apple #AppStore, though.

Satisfied #Fantastical and #Cardhop customer on #Mac and #iPhone here, shocked to receive this message from #Apple today: “The developer, #Flexibits Inc., is raising the price of this subscription from $39.99 per year to $56.99 per year. Your #subscription will automatically renew for $56.99 per year starting May 9 unless you cancel at least a day before.”

Emailed the latter for an explanation. It's ridiculous to hear about a 42½ percent increase from the #AppStore rather than the #developer.

@nova This is exactly why I use #Fantastical by #Flexibits - the number of folk who go “wow, that’s so cool” when they can just click a link in my email signature and pick a time that suits them is awesome!

@AdamChandler I’m also a delighted #Fantastical user. I wonder why nothing comes close outside of the #Apple ecosystem, though. I don’t think @ev’s wishes are uncommon, but I do think Apple users are more willing to pay for a better experience, thus making #Flexibits a more sustainable business. #Windows and #Linux users settle for cheap-to-free lowest common denominators, and that’s hard to compete against.

Baby steps, sure. But good to see #Mastodon getting noticed by more #app #developers. Kudos to #Flexibits.

Always nice to see things like this.

Flexibit's Mac addressbook replacement, CardHop, just updated and two of the changes are:

* Added support to add Mastodon usernames to a contact card
* Added support to detect Mastodon usernames in the parser input

Sometimes companies make simplifying your digital life easy. Like in this case, with #Flexibits trying to avoid saying in their email that they are raising the price of #Fantastical by 43% next year due to "rising costs".

I haven't been super happy with Fantastical for a year or two now, it just hasn't been syncing my data that reliably, so this felt like a really good opportunity to reduce digital clutter. I'll survive with Outlook and Apple Calendar just fine, thanks!

Wait, what?! Show *END TIMES*?? 😳
