I got in when it was syncing via Dropbox and iCloud, and it worked perfectly fine.&lt;p&gt;The switch to a subscription service is a forced downgrade for me; it&amp;#x27;s putting functionality I already have behind a subscription.&lt;p&gt;This is particularly an issue since the old versions (versions I paid for, mind you) are slowly going away (typically as a recompilation and submission is required to keep them available on iOS devices).</text></comment>
