Hi there, We just started a few people trying out this application, and so far, it’s been meeting expectations and exceeding them. However, it seems that as of the most recent update, the notifications to try the Cloud Sync have resulted in people getting frustrated and uninstalling the application…

How often are you seeing these notifications? It’s my understanding that they are shown, at most, once every three days.

I’m almost certain it’s daily, almost certainly after a reboot. For instance, I came back to check this request today, as I noticed another notification this morning.

Still getting these naggy notifications. Even I am considering to stop using it. I know it’s a small thing, but the frequency is just too much. I cannot say that I notice it daily, but when I do notice it, the first thing that pops into my mind is, “Not again, Go Away!” - which I’m sure you realise …

This is indeed good news. I didn’t notice this option in the settings :slight_smile:

I actually take back my last comment. I’ve noticed the the option is present… but you need to have already purchased for one of the two nagging features.[Capture] The point is, your free version, is constantly nagging. It’s clear that this is just going to be come evermore frustrating. Time to look…

Actually, after some soul-searching, we’ve come to the conclusion that this is exactly as frustrating as we intend to be. We are making a commitment here and now that ads Grindstone 4 will not get any more frustrating.

Well, I have some good news. I did a code review personally to make sure that it is only once every three days. Also, if it is bothering you so much to see those notifications, there is a feature to turn them off which was made available in the most recent release:
