This is fantastic, well done. So far it seems much better than anything out there for assisted reading, I can definitely see myself using it every day!
I’d mostly ignore the feedback about the subscription. Yeah, having a new subscription for everything sucks but Apple makes it extremely easy to review and cancel your subscriptions. And your free tier is already useful and by allowing everyone to use the education discount if they want, I think you’ve got plenty of options covered. Experiment with adding a lifetime purchase down the road if you want, but I’d be hesitant of adding a “pay nothing” option for the premium features. Most people will choose it, even if they could easily afford to pay and are getting lots of value from product.
Nice work! For now I’m doing fine on the free tier but I’ll definitely upgrade when I run into a paywalled feature I want to use.
Thank you!
It has a lot of features so I'm not always sure what to really highlight to make it clear that there are vanishingly few comparable options out there, especially for Japanese and for features like the word/kanji tracking.
Btw, I'd love to get a testimonial from you if you'd like me to check in with you later and to hear any feedback you have after using it some more - please contact me if it's alright alex@manabi io
