Targets macOS

From AgileBits, the makers of 1-Password.

[quote]Thankfully Apple gave us a wonderful present at their Worldwide Developers Conference last year that made this possible for Mac App Store users as well.

1Password now comes with a 30 day free trial in the Mac App Store. Those downloading 1Password for the first time will start their trial and be prompted to subscribe once their trial expires:[/quote]

I’ve fixed the typo in the title.

From what I understand, trial is only available within the subscription model.

That leaves non-subscription to the side.

What did I get wrong?

Indeed, but I do wonder two things.

  1. Can this be done without using IAP?
  2. As more software moves to subscription, this might actually work.

@Sam: “FREE trails”. I had really wondered what that would be.

Ha ha… I’d love a trial map of my local area; instead I’m creating my own slowly!
