  • I can see how the "Buy Now" text could be misleading. Tbh, that's just the default text that comes with the Paypal button, and it wasn't deliberated crafted that way to mislead buyers. I'll roll out an update to make it more explicit.

    About that, the truth is, it often starts with a use-case as simple as "convert PDF to Word". Improvements usually would come from user feedback, and continuous maintenance. While I deliberately started out to keep the App simple, there's a good chance that features and functionality would expand when user feedback gets in the mix.

    I'm saying this from my experience with maintaining IGdm (https://github.com/igdmapps/igdm)
