Affinity Designer Cost

I paid $40 for Designer, $40 for Photo and $20 for Photo iPad. Say Designer iPad has introductory pricing of $20 too. Hypothetically say Serif has a new version for each of those apps once every 3 years and I upgrade to each app at the full price. Affinity Designer. Full price was $49.99 $49.99 Now $24.99 $24.99. Save $25.00 Affinity Publisher. Full price was $49.99 $49.99 Now $24.99 $24.99.
