A quiet changelog scares people off the wrong package.

Bloc hasn't published to pub.dev in fifteen months. Read that as a settled API rather than an abandoned one. Riverpod cuts releases every few weeks because it's still moving.

Your Flutter app shouldn't know a product identifier exists. It only needs the word pro.

I re-read the docs before writing this. Hardcode the ID and a Black Friday price waits on App Store review. Name the entitlement instead and that tier ships from a dashboard, no build.
