Is a Crossfit Assistant App Subscription Worth It?

Users are frustrated by the sudden shift from free to $10-14/month subscription model, especially for basic timer functionality they previously accessed free. The pricing is seen as excessive for the core use case (recording with timer overlay). Subscription management issues compound the frustration.

Users show willingness to pay for recording/competition features but strongly resist paying for basic timers. There's acceptance of premium features being paid, but the current pricing (~$14/month or forced annual) is viewed as overpriced given the app's reliability issues and limited functionality.

Strong preference implied for freemium model: free timers with paid recording features, or at minimum a free tier for basic functionality. Users resist being forced into year-long subscriptions without notification, suggesting preference for monthly or one-time purchase options.
