The paid version will probably go on sale in a few months. I remember redditsync being $10 or something and I got it for $1-2 on sale.

Edit: and I don't know if sync is on iOS but anyone on an android can download Google play rewards and usually get 1-5 surveys a day and get $0.10-$0.70 per survey. It adds up pretty quick. I get quite a few a day and even more when I walk in areas with lots of retail. If you are willing to share a photo of your receipt it'll give you even more. I've made a few hundred dollars for apps over the past decade using that app. I don't think I've ever paid for an app with my actual money and just used money earned off rewards. If you have an android (with Google services) it should be an app you have.

I use the Google survey thing too and agree that it stacks up pretty fast. I often use it to buy premium versions of apps.

That said, I really doubt the people concerned with trackers in an app would want to willingly give Google information about themselves that they sell to advertisers.
