Why are the PRO or standard plans so expensive? While the tool is excellent for creating your app, collaborating with others is challenging as only one person can edit the project at a time. Additionally, we discovered the need to download the code to test SQLLite, as it doesn't function properly in the web simulation. Upon downloading with the Standard subscription, we encountered dependency issues that required fixing to run the app in the iOS Simulator.
Despite the time-saving benefits during development, purchasing a subscription becomes necessary at some point. When comparing costs, solely obtaining an iOS developer account for $100 and developing everything in Swift appears more economical. Within three months, opting for the Pro subscription results in higher expenses, not to mention additional costs for Firebase, Firestore, and others. Moreover, launching your app on the Apple Store necessitates a developer account, adding to the overall expenses. Considering small teams or individual developers, the pricing seems excessively high.
