Many apps follow a similar curve. They peak at a certain value/annoyance level and then the developers realize they're as high as they're going to go in terms of revenue. Then they start looking for ways to further monetize their users. For some of them that's adding dumb trendy features like social integration. For some that's locking previously available features behind a paywall. For a few it means selling your whole app to a third party to fill your users' phones with adware. It's disgusting and it's not getting better. Probably 50% of my screen time is spent on apps I no longer update because the new versions are unacceptable.
