what is your opinion of this way of doing business. mine is that they are just thieves.
shouldn't we mass complain to apple and google for this?
FR24 has not cancelled the old app. The old app was removed from sale more than 3 years ago and now FR24 has stopped providing data to the old app as it has reached end-of-life, 10 years after it was launched. FR24 has never promised lifetime support for the old app. Expecting an app with lifetime global aircraft position data and support for a one time 5 EUR fee is quite ridiculous. FR24 is providing an ongoing service with ongoing costs to run the service. The current app works great.
