Looks like the people who are grandfathered in are people who paid for web access. If you purchased the Android or iOS app (like me), you are not grandfathered in and do not get a free plus account.

Huh, first time I ever saw that. Makes sense, I paid for the Android app not the web app. Still, wish I would have known this earlier. I may not like it, but better than being ghosted.

That said, I distributed remember themes and icons being a thing in the paid app which isn't available under the new model unless you subscribe.
