New version of Click to chat (V 2.12) + new donation version

V 2.12
- Removed non-google donation links to comply with new guidelines, replaced with new donation version.
- Minor tweaks with app colors



Recently the Play Store has been updated with new requirements about payments. Now you can't have a link to a non-google donation site (to be precise this requirement has always exists, but now it seems to be mandatory, instead of 'recommended'). For this reason I removed the Paypal, Patreon and Ko-fi links, which to be honest didn't were used (except Paypal, was used once). The links are still available on this blog, from the support button above (left if desktop).

I kept the buy me a coffee app, which is the only one that people have used, and still people uninstall it so soon that Play Store refunds it. If you are wondering how can I subsist by earning nothing the answer is simple: android is (currently) a free-time thing that I do because I really like it. 

I don't like ads, will never add them, and also I don't like when an app is limited and you need to pay for advanced or extended features. However, after checking other similar apps and projects, I found that a similar and good-for-me alternative is to have the same exact app but paid. This paid version is exactly the same one, except for the color, which is yellow instead of green. All the features are, and will be, on the free version. In fact the donation version has less features, because it doesn't includes the translations (only english and spanish) because they were made by users, so I don't want to use them on a paid app. But if you want to support me, now you can with a cosmetic purchase (which is common nowadays).


You can find all the exact information about the new donation version on the play store page:
