I'm working on a MacOS app that gives you insights on how to manage better your battery health. I.e. : it triggers notifications on when to plug/unplug alimentation cable.
Launch it as a paying app (0,99$ ? more ?)

Launch it for free at first and then turn it into a paying app when it has enough ratings

I think it makes more sense to launch the App at free of cost initially. Making it paid might reduce it's initial reach significantly.
