I wouldn't recommend Patreon or anything similar in your situation. Basically you need to compare your app income to the additional work it takes to keep customers happy and buying. And at some point you might just as well open source it and move on... It seems as if Donations don't work for most Open Source projects. Even when they do, it's often almost a B2B like relationship.
