This seems like the same logic that people say "Well if they tax people more making over $X then it kills the motivation to make that much", my dude, you don't make .10 * $X is that really the barrier to you making more?

Same here, you're essentially saying you could come up with something massively popular but won't because Apple might sherlock it? The truth is that even when Apple sherlocks things there still exists a market for the "Pro"/"Advanced" version

Reminders: Things, Due, etc

Notes: Drafts, Evernote, Notion, etc

Maps: Google Maps, Waze, etc

Journal (or whatever that are calling it): Day One, etc

and the list goes on. I actually like it when Apple releases a new app in an existing category. It sets the bar and exposes even more people to the idea of such an app, some of those people go looking for a more advanced version.




You do you boo.

I’d prefer to compete in an open market. That’s all I’m saying.
