Standard marketing language, used especially in the features and series film industry. The Avengers is MCU tentpole IP.
Never heard it in any context in tech other than Apple.

#123This looks cool but the line about “show don’t tell” is followed by a LOT of telling.
...and accompanied by an image that shows a camera oriented the wrong way for video

#124"one simple principle: make good products and charge money for them." Thank you for the one-time purchase option. It's a win already on today's software world.
I just looked at two pomodoro apps on the app store, one had a one-time purchase fee, the other had a subscription only model. It's a freaking pomodoro app! I can't believe I have to pay for that in the first place (why doesn't the countdown app of Apple not have a widget =.=) but a subscription? People are greedy af.
iOS and macOS ships with Pomodoro. Open Shortcuts and you should see it.

#127I didn't see it mentioned here, but is there any support for timecode?
Not at launch, but it's on the roadmap.
Are you going to integrate the Atomos/TCS wireless system? Apogee does for audio in their apps, for example. And Zoom recorders support it. Would be nice to go with the emerging wireless standard for timecode.

#128Kind of a tangent but I'm worried that "Kodiak" is not going to pass the "a moron in a hurry" test ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_moron_in_a_hurry ) and could get them in trouble. I for one read it as "Kodak" the first few times. Hopefully they cleared it with the owner of the trademark.
The design of the Kodiak card (logo? icon? not sure if there's a better word) also seems like it's intentionally mildly reminiscent of the Kodak logo, without being close enough that it's obvious at first glance.

#129Cries in Android.
Realistically I don't blame em, but it sucks to see IOS get all the cool apps. With emulators coming to iOS I know my next phone will probably be an iPhone

I give it 2 years before they have regressed to a subscription model.
Personally, even if I don't personally purchase this, I hope your wrong because I am strongly against subscriptions in most cases. I see cases where it makes sense...but I also see the need for development to get paid their salery, and once you have reached all the users you can....their is no new user growth....and if your just selling based off a one time fee then that means you got very little income except the ra…
The real problem is that people are afraid of paying high one time prices. Subscriptions allow you to lower your prices, which lowers the barrier of entry.
On iOS, it gets even worse as there never were high prices to begin with. Which means that the OTP model was never very sustainable.
