> sustains Batteries' development

What future development needs to be sustained? I developed a similarly-sized app back in the days of Snow Leopard and I’ve not really needed to do much maintenance to keep it going. An hour at most every major OS X version and that was mostly just updating dependencies and recompiling. That’s less time than I spend scrolling HN so I couldn’t justify charging for it.

New features (tracking other Mac batteries as well, better Apple Watch support), bug fixes, supporting new devices (Logitech, and new Apple devices), localization into new languages.

You’d be surprised!

nah they're definitely done introducing new products and/or changing the way their devices communicate.

I see this as a case not to charge a subscription, but I don't see why that should stop him from charging out right. My comment before was more about marketing, and reaching maximum people than doing what was justifiable.
