## Features

## iOS
|
||||
|
||||
This open-source app is developed using a cross-platform framework and can be made available on the App Store with minor configuration effort. However, compared to the Google Play Store, the costs are considerably higher. Apple charges a fee of $100/year to publish apps on the store, and it is required to have Apple hardware to develop and publish apps. Since I do not own Apple hardware, I will need to rent a Mac in the cloud for development.
|
||||
|
||||
I estimate the total costs to be $350/year, which includes the store fee and cloud hardware costs necessary to publish and maintain the app for iOS.
|
||||
|
||||
Since I am not an iPhone user, I have decided to rely on community donations to make the app available on this platform.
|
||||
|
||||
If you would like to see this app on the App Store, please consider donating using the following button:
|
||||
|
||||
<a href="https://liberapay.com/FaFre/donate"><img alt="Donate using Liberapay" src="https://liberapay.com/assets/widgets/donate.svg"></a>
|
||||
|
||||
Once the goal of $200 has been donated, I will start working on the App Store release.
|
||||
|
||||
## Getting started
