Just Some Procrastinator Reviewing Productivity Software

I purchased Creative upgrade when it was 75% off back in 2017. There were Creative upgrade (one-time payment) and Cloud+ plan (subscription), Creative upgrade allowed 1 out of 3 cloud storage service connected while Cloud+ plan allowed 3 out of 3 cloud storage services connected (GDrive, Onedrive, Dropbox). I went with Creative upgrade because I needed just 1 cloud storage connection and it included nice additions such as dark theme (that's atrocious if you ask me).

Fast forward to 2020, they took away cloud storage sync capability that I bought for and put it into an excessive subscription plan named Pro Cloud. Pro Cloud plan is basically Pro upgrade (introduced in 2019, was one-time payment, higher than Creative) and Cloud+ plan mashed together and priced twice as much than the original Pro upgrade, per year!

Nice bait-and-switch.

You might want to use MetaCtrl (Android, free) to sync with cloud storage but it works different because MetaCtrl downloads files to local storage then uploads back the changed files and syncing is much slower than the app having direct access to cloud storage.
