Is FediLab worth the $2.7 ?
If you are in this post you should definitely know about F-Droid, and if you don't... well, welcome to where open source apps are FOSSly distributed, and some paid apps on the Play Store like Fedilab and OsmAnd are completely free, both as beer and freedom.
Then, you can pay those 2.7$ directly to the developer (if you want) instead of giving part of it to Google.
I strongly recommend you install the Neo Store for a very modern frontend for F-Droid.
For extra coolness, activate the IzzyOnDroid repo on Neo Store for getting way more FOSS apps to download with quicker updates.
It's open-source and it's available at no cost on F-Droid. The Play store version is a way to support the developer.
BTW, I just noticed that Fedilab is apparently the #1 paid social app now, that's pretty funny.
Like others have said, get it from F-droid for free, but yes, it is worth the cost imho.
