Yes, for a while I missed the offline version as well. An offline version is something you can keep even if the license changes hands. Stef made the promise to deliver one and like in my last post, I don't think it will happen

You said:
> I paid for a lifetime subscription.
Yes, as did I. That was another company. That company sill exists, AFAIK, they weren't bought, at least not by Shuffle iT. They had the license at that time, now Shuffle iT has it. I understand that Shuffle iT did not make true on some promises, especially the offline version, and that's not good.
But the lifetime subscrition is something Shuffle iT had no control over, and they don't repeat that "mistake" (that's the nice version; "misleading customers" is the bad version). For example, the original license for Shuffle iT ran until end of 2019, and when it hadn't yet be prolonged, you couldn't buy a subscription into 2020.
