| I've been using this app for years. A couple months I needed to use forwarding, which is a Pro feature. I thought I already bought it years ago, but the app asked me to pay so I bought it again. It instantly locked me out of the whole app. Later I checked and I had bought pro already in 2014 (for 5€, and I paid 30€ this time). Absolutely no answer to my emails. Thanks for the instructions. |

| If you haven't already, you can ask Google for a refund on that (the second, recent) in-app purchase: https://support.google.com/googleplay/answer/15574897?hl=en The policies are "up to 48 hrs after purchase" but I'm sure "purchase does not work at all" is an exception. (It is on iOS) |

| ▲ | stavros 6 hours ago | parent | next [-] | | I've never succeeded on getting a refund with Google. There were a few apps that tricked me into buying a subscription (namely Musescore and Yazio), I immediately asked Google for a refund because I didn't actually get what I thought I was getting, and they denied me both times. Now I just don't buy anything on the Play store that I can't afford to just be outright scammed on. | | |
| ▲ | ahmeni 32 minutes ago | parent | next [-] | | The Musescore app is just a minefield of subscription farming, it was somehow miserable even with an existing subscription the number of times it tried to get me to also get their weird AI learning platform. Now I've left it entirely. | |
| ▲ | tomrod 4 hours ago | parent | prev | next [-] | | Two that I lost on play store: 1. World of Goo. Bought by Netflix, sunsetted, can't install old versions anymore 2. Monopoly. Bought by EA. Sunsetted/renamed to zzzMonopoly. Can't install old versions anymore. FDroid has my attention since these happened. | |
| ▲ | zx8080 5 hours ago | parent | prev [-] | | Was you able to eventually unsunbcribe from Musescore? | | |
| ▲ | stavros 5 hours ago | parent [-] | | Yes, I could unsubscribe from both easily, but I wanted a refund because I couldn't use the subscriptions. |

| ▲ | derefr 5 hours ago | parent [-] | | I believe that will result in Google locking you out of your Google account, including Gmail, YouTube, any Google Cloud projects, etc. | | |

| ▲ | windexh8er 3 hours ago | parent [-] | | I've done it in the past (~2015). Honestly if Google locked me out of all of those other purchases it'd be great grounds to sue them. If everyone started doing this it would prevent them from doing this in the first place and may be additional fodder for (hopefully) continued anti-trust losses in court. If your life is tied to Google in that way then it's a risk no matter what you do and you should probably think about how to reduce that risk. I don't have anything other than purchases tied to my Google accounts anymore. | | |

| Why would you pay for such feature ? Termux is basically a small Linux in your pocket and has anything you'd ever need regarding SSH |
| |
| ▲ | BenjiWiebe 2 hours ago | parent [-] | | It's far quicker and easier to hit a toggle in JuiceSSH to turn on a port forward than to open up termux and type in the commands. | | |
| ▲ | TheRoque 2 hours ago | parent [-] | | I can believe that. But there are ways to reduce this overhead to almost nothing (aliasing, a script, a shell with nice autocomplete...) |
