I purchased Filmora (Wondershare) several years ago, expecting lifetime access to its features as advertised at the time. Back then, the software included a range of transitions and assets that were clearly part of the original package. But over the years, Filmora has steadily removed or paywalled many of these core features.Just recently, I was shocked to find that even basic transitions that were once free are now locked behind a subscription or additional payment. These aren’t new effects – they were always part of the basic toolkit I paid for. This kind of retroactive monetization feels dishonest and exploitative. It's frustrating to see a company chip away at the value of what was originally a one-time purchase.What’s worse is that this change wasn’t clearly communicated. It’s a slow erosion of ownership, and it leaves a bad taste, especially for those of us who supported Filmora early on.I’ll be switching to another video editor – one that respects its users and doesn't charge for the same things twice. If you’re considering Filmora, beware of their evolving paywalls and misleading "lifetime" terms.
