I am a long time JB'er and invested a lot of money into the into the developers. However, I wish more apps came with trials. I would love to try an app before I commit to a buy, as I dont know how stable it is, or if I'd even like it. I think the devs would bring in more money if they offered trials, as more people would enjoy their app and buy.

Anyone agree?
 
I agree. With jailbreak apps not having a standard testing and approval process like apps released through the App Store, there is a greater chance of getting a buggy mess. But that's why I read up on the Cydia apps before buying them.
 
Every paid tweak should let you have at least a day trial. I have never used a crack, I have always paid for these as $1 or $2 honestly doesn't make a big dent, but I do think it would be far better to have trials.
 
Yup, I've wasted about $10 so far this jailbreak on buggy apps. I then tried a cracked app and wound up having to DFU restore my phone.😡

I'd feel better if the jailbreak team at least got a cut of the apps money.
 
glad to see I'm not the only one who believes this. I would really like to buy Auxo, but without a trial I wont risk it.

I've been using the cracked one for a while, and it has been working just fine. I'll buy it soon 🙂
