Mixed feelings on this.
I recall when I was on the committee of a local hiking club a few years back. We decided we would email members with weekly reminders of activities.
One member complained that, as he didn't have email, someone should phone him (on his landline of course) whenever such a message was sent.
Putting aside someone's time and trouble, should we have spent money belonging to all the members to mitigate one menber's personal choice?
On the other hand I get irritated with a couple of organisations I occasionally buy from who publish (slightly) higher prices for items purchased via their website than through their app. I do have a smartphone, but don't want to use up storage on numerous, rarely used, apps.
Oddly, if they described it as a discount for app users, I'd probably find that less objectionable. Although, I haven't yet figured out how using their app reduces their costs.
