And then consider the number of updates that app from a giant company gets, despite it being full of bugs.

Aviary is also now available across iPhone, iPad, and Mac for the ridiculously low price of just $1.99. That's less than two dollars for three apps!

I've decided to drop @AviaryTheApp to $1.99 permanently, starting from today.

This is primarily to undercut the competition and make it more enticing. It's also an absolute steal considering you get the iPhone, iPad, Watch, and Mac app included in that.https://t.co/yh0ukvMZDb pic.twitter.com/dgsUnnS7Tg
