End users can compile iOS apps from source and install them without paying the developer fee. It could be distributed as source.
They would have to rebuild (re-sign) and reinstall weekly. The opposite of Just Works.
if you use krita for painting, artstudio pro is a pretty good alternative. i've found it does pretty much everything i'd want out of photoshop & also has .abr support. the biggest downside so far is that it eats through battery much faster than any other ios application i've tried.
