Don't have precise churn numbers yet – changed the subscription model in December so it's still early.
Old model: freemium with 1 playlist, max 10 tracks. Paid unlocks more. Felt limiting.
New model: everything free to explore. Build your playlists, add all content. Subscription only kicks in when you open the audio player to hand it to your kid – 1 month free trial included.
Since then daily signups are solid, users worldwide. Feels more honest – people see the full value before paying. Still indie scale, but growing steadily.
