The Panels launch in September 2024 I was met by a flood of criticism Over its costly subscription prices and advertising setup. “Earlier this year, the makeup of the development team changed, and despite our best efforts to bring in collaborators who shared our passion and vision, we weren’t able to find the right fit,” Reads the message posted on the Panels website. “Rather than keeping the app running without being able to grow it in the way we originally envisioned, we felt it was best to make a clean break.”
Brownlee plans to release the Panels source code on GitHub after the shutdown of the app. Panels’ subscriptions are automatically cancelled when it is removed from the app store. Refunds for subscriptions that remain active will then be given after December 31st.
