- Frequent reports of account shadowbans following app usage → user trust erosion → long-term churn acceleration.
- Aggressive paywalling of all features → negative sentiment spikes → reduced new-user conversion rates.
The SWOT
- Analytics-driven engagement metrics provide professional-grade insights for power users
- Untapped B2B partnerships for account-management tools
