Certain things in Bubble, like loading a new page, running workflows that modify data, or doing a search require the user’s web browser to talk to the Bubble web servers, and the web servers to do work. You can now pay for having the servers reserve more time to do that work, which means that you can do more of it at once. That means a) you can have more users using your app without things slowing down, and b) really time-consuming searches and workflows might run faster.
This will only speed things up if you’re already hitting limits, though. If you’re not, it just means that the app design or the bubble code needs to be faster. You can check the Logs tab in the editor to see if upgrading would speed things up.
Yes, but we now allow you to have private apps on a free plan, and you can have as many free plans as you want. So it’s no longer “you buy a plan for yourself, and that tells you how many apps you can have”, it’s “you pick a plan for each of your apps, including the free plan”. There are no longer any limits on the numbers of apps you can have – you can have as many free and paid apps as you’d like.
A great initiative! And so far seemingly very well rolled out.
A question - moving onto the new regime involves an instant bill relating to your selections, and a cancellation of your current legacy plan - will you be refunding the pro-rated amount for the legacy subscription paid in a given month on switching?
This isn’t built yet, but we’re going to add an optional setting to turn that off for plans that have white labeling, probably later today or tomorrow.
I’m on a legacy paid plan but with the pricing shift, the app is now blocking me from scheduling a workflow on a list until I migrate? I thought that the ability to run this would remain while I’m on the legacy plan?
