Homecrate.app is not available in the Swedish appstore

[maubarsom]

Hi! Sorry for spamming in such a weird place, but couldn't find another place to contact you. I found the homecrate.app pretty interesting, but it's not available for pre-buy or buy in the Swedish App store. If I click through the website to the app store, I just get a blank "popup"window. And if I try looking for the app through your developer profile, I only see broken place AR and no mention of homecrate. I figured you might wanna know the app is not available in other stores , unless it's on purpose, in which case just ignore the message :D

Hi @maubarsom I appreciate you reaching out here! https://support.homecrate.app is a good place to send bug reports as you find them but this is perfectly fine. I really appreciate your interest, I didnt think there was any visibility of it outside the US so I unintentionally limited the release. I've opened it up world-wide now! You should be seeing it here now: https://apps.apple.com/se/app/homecrate-player-studio/id6759652629

One thing to note, apple still hasnt approved the pro in-app purchase. It's been weeks so i opened a ticket with them last night to see whats happening. You can still use 90% of the features so do give it a download today and I'll report back here when the pro version is approved by apple (which will make the buy button stop producing error)

The only limitations on each feature are things like preset saving so it should be very demo-able today! Thank you again!

Ahh nice! thank you for the quick reply :) I managed to download it now ! I'll hold out for the in-app purchase. Just FYI, I think I came across the app in one of these 2 facebook groups:

People there are pretty enthusiastic about jumping into new daws/synths/music related apps in ios and so on, so maybe it's a good crowd to market the app :). My feeling is that the crowd in the app is a mix of Europe and North America, but maybe also some people scattered from other places. I was also thinking that it's maybe good to wait to post when the IAP is fixed, so you don't miss on some potential money there :D )

P.D thanks for the support link, maybe worth adding a link to it on the homecrate.app page? I think it's the first place i looked for some contact form or email, but i def couldn't find that link. Maybe it's just me hehe.

@maubarsom great suggestion! Thank you! I just added it to the main nav. I'm stoked you found the app. More to come soon. I have so many new features on my roadmap. Local cross device audio sync is one big one so you can have multiple devices wired up with instruments and record to one main instance. :D

Also the synth has a lot of areas to refine in the ARP. Aside from that, the app has been a daily driver for me sketching songs. I hope it becomes that for others.

nice! looking forward for sure :) I've been trying the app now, and found a couple of issues. Sent you some description via the support form. it's also been crashing randomly while trying out the daw, perhaps I can share some screengrab or so if it helps , but we can take it on email or so
