An update on the Ipad app, and some feedback needed.
11 years ago
So, as many of you saw earlier we're working on an ipad app. Here's the part where it comes time to ask a question.
The current "version" of the app would be available/visible through the magazine rack on ipad rather than as a standalone app. This is the simplest, fastest way for us to get content out there.
We're also pursuing programming a more intricate version that is its own app with way more bells and whistles.
However, the biggest holdup right now is if we released the first app, then "mothball" it and start the new one, purchases would not transfer over. People would essentially have to start their collections over again. I know there are not a lot of titles out just yet, but I hesitate to pursue this path because in the consumers shoes, I would be a little disappointed.
Now, they -might- transfer if this one part we are working on works out correctly, but that's not 100% guaranteed.
The question I'm getting at is; would people rather wait and see the more polished app that will be fully up to what we want it to be, or would they rather see some kind of app now, because it could be a year or so before the other one was finished up.
Opinions are very much welcome and sought.

However, if this one part pans out the way I hope, then it -will- transfer. Same as if you had an app on your phone and your ipad and could restore purchases.
