Maintain Your Car for Free With Ad-Supported Gas Cubby
Written by Phil Poccia
Digital distribution has help spurn new pricing models for software. One company embracing alternative models is The Application Cubby, which is now offering a free ad-supported version of their popular gas mileage and vehicle maintenance app Gas Cubby.
What makes this collaboration unique is that only one company, Honeywell, will provide ads for the app. The only products that will be advertised are from the Honeywell subsidiary FRAM, which makes auto parts such as oil filters.
This app has ranged in price from $0.99 to $9.99. Gas Cubby is still available without ads for $6.99.
If developers can make the economics work, it is great to see apps being offered in both paid and free ad-supported versions.
Grab Gas Cubby FRAM edition for free now (iTunes link). Gas Cubby requires iPhone OS 3.0 or later.
