Hi, I bought Mobilesheets for iPad, but when I search the app store on my MacBook for it, I'm supposed to pay for it again.
Will it even run on MacOS?
Cheers, Carl

The iPad version will run on a Mac with an M1 or M2 processor. It will not run on older Macs. I still plan on adding support for older Macs - I just haven't had time to make the necessary changes.

You definitely should not be charged a second time if you are logging into the Apple store with the same account on both devices. Can you verify that you are logged in with the same account?

I wouldn't think so, otherwise it would have been a problem for the iPad as well. This is really strange - I'm afraid I don't really have any insight as to why Apple would be trying to charge you again. I believe I've heard from other users that have run the app on both their Mac and iPad, but it would be great to have confirmation from any users on the forum about this. It may be worth contacting Apple about this as well.

When I finally decided to buy the app a second time, App Store told me that the update was for free, as I already own it!
Much ado about nothing :-D

Well I'm glad to hear that. The Apple support people were clueless I guess... There definitely are not separate versions, and even when I do release a Mac-specific version, it will be bundled with the iPad version, so it won't be a separate application. I'm glad you got it all resolved in the end.
