Ivory by Tapbots May 22, 2023

Ivory for Mac will be released tomorrow!

We’ve decided to keep things simple as far as subscriptions go. If you paid for “Premier”, you’ll automatically get access to the Mac app as we have changed “Premier” to “Universal”.

If you paid for “Pro”, you’ll get the same access to “iOS + iPadOS”.

If you upgrade to “Universal”, your sub date will reset and you’ll be refunded the remainder of your Pro subscription.

@ivory If I've already purchased an annual subscription to the iOS version a few weeks ago, can I somehow upgrade to the ‘Universal' version by paying only the difference?
Show threadElliotMay 24, 2023
@michael @ivory hey Michael. I hit the new subscription on macOS and Apple automatically refunded me the difference on the old one.
Show threadMichaelMay 24, 2023

@elliot

Ah, I can see the upgrade option now on the iOS app. It wasn’t there when I looked earlier. Probably just caching.

@ivory

@michael Unfortunately there's only one way to upgrade. Apple's way. When you upgrade through our app, Apple will refund you the pro-rated funds for the time you didn't use.
Show threadMichaelMay 24, 2023
@ivory great. thank you!
Show threadRahul MeenaMay 25, 2023
@ivory @michael I think you should enable another mode of payment. Wouldn’t that be like a 25-30% discount for guys who take annual subscription?

@ivory there seems to be a discrepancy in my iOS + macOS Yearly subscription term. On iOS it shows my sub expires 24th March 2024 (correct) but on macOS it says 12th August 2023. Thanks for any help!
Show threadIvory by Tapbots May 24, 2023

@purplelime Probably because you had the beta (TestFlight) version of the app before? If you go to your Mac system settings, search for "Subscription”, click on "Media and Purchases", and then “Manage" subscriptions, it will open the App Store to your list of subscriptions and Ivory should be in there with the correct date.

If that's the case, I wouldn't worry about the date in the app. It should update at some point.

Show threadSamMay 24, 2023
@ivory yeah I used to have the beta which I removed. I checked the subscription via Mac App Store as you suggested and it says next billing date for Ivory is 31st January 2024. So yes I think I’ll just leave it for now and hope it adjusts itself in time. Thanks!

I love how silky smooth the whole experience is on my Mac. Super slick and it just feels "right”

Thank for the Universal subscription and can't wait to see how Ivory progresses.

Should people on TestFlight stay or download the released version?
Show threadIvory by Tapbots May 24, 2023
@JJKrawczyk If your testflight version is .8 then get on the release because .8 won't be updated anymore. If you are on .9, it's totally up to you. The .9 version will get the latest updates usually a bit before we plan to push things to the app store for some final testing.

@ivory Wish Ivory was available for Monterey! 😭. I have the 2013 Mac Pro and sadly it’s starting to miss out on more and more (including Ventura). Guess I have more motivation to upgrade now…
Show threadTodd Thomas May 24, 2023
@shellsharks we really tried to include Monterey but there were too many bug fixes in Apple's code in Ventura that we needed.

@ivory is it expected behavior when you hide the app COMMAND H on the Mac that the second and third columns close and it’s a single column app again when you open it?
Show threadIvory by Tapbots May 24, 2023
@dominocollege Are you sure you didn't cmd-w to close the window instead? Cmd-h just hides the window and columns are saved then and if you quit the app. Currently we don't save when you close the window, but we plan to change that.
Show threadChad C.May 24, 2023
@ivory I may have done that. I would vote to change that behavior to remember columns after reopening it. Thanks!

@ivory would you consider adding a setting that lets us make sure the window column layout we have sad does not go away. Each time I open the app I have to set it up again.
Show threadIvory by Tapbots May 24, 2023
@richaesthetic It's planned. For now, try not to close the window. You can quit or hide and it will remember the state.
