It's not scammy, but it's certainly expensive in the case of OmniFocus.

Now I have the option of paying ~20 EUR for 2->3 and it's not really worth the price for the kind of features one gets.

Another annoying thing is that IAPs aren't subject to family sharing, so one is essentially buying a really expensive todo app (40-50 €) that only runs on one or two devices.

They do have an unique feature as far as I know: local encryption.

In the end v2 is still working fine, so I can't complain too much.

OmniFocus is far more than a basic todo app, if you are using it as one then I think you are using the wrong tool (or at the very least, a very expensive and unnecessary tool).

I was a big fan of OmniGraffle years ago and paid either $200 or $100 for it. Then I got hit with something like this and never bought another Omni product.

I do pay for lots of other software with cleaner models (Jetbrains is a good example).

The exact same thing happened to me with OmniGraffle.

The old version still works, which is great, but OmniGroup probably won't get any more money from me for that particular product. Customers like us will likely pose some problems for companies like Omni, so I don't see why several people are trying to dismiss these stories.
