(ID: ) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 09/04/2024 kafalarına göre parayla aldığınız üyeliği ücretsiz sürüme çevirecekler. Gerekçeleri de yapacak bir şey yok Google Chrome eklentileri yakında bizi desteklemeyecek vs. bu sizin sorununuz en fazla sizden üyelik alanlara harici paket yükleme seçeneği ile eklenti desteğine devam edebilirsiniz. neymiş 139 dolar olacakmış da yıllık üyelik, üyeliği olanlara 39 dolar olacakmış ilk sene.. demek ki çözümünüz var. O halde neden Pro Versiyon alanları ücretsiz sürüme geçiriyorsunuz? İş ahlakı nerede? insanlara parayla üyelik satıyorsunuz sonra diyorsunuz ki 16 eylülde ücretsiz sürüme düşürüleceksiniz o zaman insanların paralarını geri verin! siz dolandırıcı mısınız? ve hangi hakla sizi ücretsiz sürüme düşüreceğiz, isterseniz 39 dolara bir yıllık plan alabilirsiniz diyorsunuz! yıllar önce lifetime lisans almıştım ne hakla beni free kullanıcıya düşürürsünüz!

Lucy Brenton (ID: 000000ec22c7f439) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 12/01/2023 Screencastify is the best recording software I've ever used... and I've tried at least a dozen. One of my favorite features is recording just the tab I'm in... then if I have to look at something in another tab it's not recorded. It allows me to listen in to the tab that's being recorded while I work on something else. Super easy to use, very intuitive. Definitely worth the money!
