    Indeed, it's seems unnessesary but it's how Heroku choose to wall off access to their add-ons. I mentioned this in the installation instructions in the GitHub docs for installation:

    Also be advised that you may have to verify your Heroku account to use the add-ons which provide auto bot scheduling and email sending. Verifying can involve a bank card but at time of writing does not require any transaction to be made.

    If this is not something you want to do, and I wouldn't blame you if you didn't, I'll be working on instructions to run this locally, and maybe even a standalone desktop app in the next months. You can probably get it working locally as it is now, but you'll have to figure out a few things and if you're not experienced it might be difficult.

        Cool! Please do familiarize yourself with their terms and conditions, I'm not connected to them in any way, not an employee, etc., it's just a convenient service. I can't be held responsible for anything that happens 😅
