On June 15, Appery.io left beta and became an official release. As part of this release there is now a scheme of different plans for how you can use Appery.io. Although the terms are covered in the Appery.io application and Web site, I thought I’d go over the plans as a blog entry.
The thing to keep in mind is that Appery.io is structured as accounts tied to single primary users. The account has one workspace owned by the primary user that contains projects that each contain screens (or pages). The workspace owner and additional users up to a set limit have access to the workspace.
With the user management feature, the workspace owner can specify access rights on a user-by-user and project-by-project basis. With this feature, the account owner can add other users up to the limit for their plan or delete other users – freeing up a slot. (Remember, deleting a user only removes their access to your workspace. It doesn’t affect an account owned by the user or the user’s access to other workspaces.)
