Why is there no free version?
We believe in fair, transparent pricing without royalties. Our plans are designed so that you do not owe us anything based on your revenue, downloads, or installations.
What are the benefits of cloud development?
Much like services similar to Google Docs, you can gain accessibility from anywhere, experience collaborative work, receive continuous updates, and have peace of mind with constant backups.
Can I store data locally?
Projects are stored in the cloud so they can be shared easily and synced across devices. If your project uses especially large files that do not need cloud syncing, you can stream or load them at runtime from your device
Can I download a backup copy of my projects?
Absolutely. However due to practicality and security issues, we recommend that you create copies within your online profile so that they can be recovered easier.
Could I lose my data?
Just like on a regular computer data loss is possible. But with our cloud-based system and easy data export, you’re better protected. Constant backups ensure your projects are secure.
