Hey everyone,
We wanted to share something important with you. After years of building Photon, we’ll introduce a new way to support the app’s development: Photon+ and we need your feedback.
Why Photon+?
You know how it is, every year Apple releases a new iOS, new devices, and we have to adapt. Bug fixes, new features you’ve been requesting, support… it takes time. A lot of time. I also notice the large todo list to add features you’re asked for. We focus on Photon For Business last year and we will focus on Photon 2 this year.
We’re an indie team. To keep improving Photon and build the features you’ve asked for, we need a sustainable way to fund development. That’s Photon+.
What’s in Photon+?
It will include all Pro features (of course) and the first feature is Multi-Dashboard Support. You’ve been asking for this! Create multiple dashboards for different venues or setups, and swipe between them. It works great.
What’s next? We’ll prioritize based on your feedback here on the forum. As always.
Your Purchases Are Safe
I want to be very clear about this:If you purchased Pro or Starter, nothing changes. All your features stay with you. Forever. We will never take away what you paid for. 
I understand subscription fatigue. Everyone wants a subscription these days. If you don’t want one, that’s fine → keep using Photon with your current features. No problem.
For new users who prefer one-time purchase: Starter Pack stays available. It doesn’t have everything, but it’s still there.
Founder Pricing for Pro Users
To those who purchased Pro thank you. You believed in us early, and we want to give back.
As a Pro user, you get Founder pricing:
| New Users | Pro Users (Founders) | |
|---|---|---|
| First Year | $39/year | $19.99/year |
| After | $59/year | $29.99/year |
That’s 66% off the first year, then 50%.
Available until June 2026. for “first year” discounts, After that, this offer is gone.

I really want to hear from you, because it is not done yet, we have to adjust the model together:

What do you think about this?

What features would you like to see in Photon+?
