I found this annoying and spammy. It took me almost a dozen clicks to find out where to buy the premium license, and there it says "contact us for a quote" instead of saying what the price is. I'll defer to others about whether this type of post (on the other site we used to call it a slashvertisement) is appropriate for HN but I'm personally not keen on it. I think if I wanted this type of product I could find it myself.

Are we looking at the same website? There's a big green button at the bottom of the page that takes you to a pricing page with three pricing tiers and the price in USD.

    "UPGRADE" button. Not obvious but it's there

    Ah OK, well OP is in the thread somewhere so maybe they'll take note and update it on mobile.

  Oh it didn't even occur to me to click that popup since I always ignore those when I don't bother to element-block them. I found my way to the home page and clicked the premium license button at the bottom, which was the first link I was able to find about getting a paid product instead of a limited gratis one. That appears to be something different than the regular subscription though. Whose price is misleadingly quoted $19 or $29 monthly, when those are only for annual subscriptions, and if you actually want to pay monthly then it's 2x as much from what I can tell. Anyway, still annoying.

We didn't fully optimize it for mobile but you should be able to see the pricing here https://streamlinehq.com/pricing https://streamlinehq.com/pricing or by using the desktop mode on mobile. Just tap on the triple dot menu at the top right of the screen and enter the desktop mode.

  It seems like you also didn't optimize it for desktop. There is an annoying "Unlock the world’s largest vector sets" message constantly floating at the bottom of the viewport, obscuring the descriptions of the icon sets in the very last row. There's not even a way to make this floating thing go away!

    Right click and select "Block element" if you have ublock origin installed. Or click "Inspect", navigate up the inspection window til you find the html element wrapping that box, and click "delete". The first way is better since it removes it from all the pages instead of just what you are currently looking at.

  Would you be able to give a ballpark figure for the extended licenses? I'd rather not get into a sales funnel before knowing what kind of numbers I should expect. In particular, I'm interested in being able to use the full set of icons rather than being limited to 100/project (and having to track that).
