Want Lifetime? It has no trial of its own, because Apple only allows trials on subscriptions. Try Pro first, then buy Lifetime from Change plan in Settings and turn off the trial's renewal; Cohestry opens Apple's subscription settings for you. How plans work

How plans work

The trial, Lifetime and switching.

The free trial

7 days of Pro

Start it from Monthly or Annual in the app. One per Apple ID, shared by both. Apple confirms the price before it starts; turn off renewal at least a day before it ends and you pay nothing.

Trial, then Lifetime

$99.99 once

Apple allows trials on subscriptions only, so Lifetime has none of its own. Try Pro, then buy Lifetime from Change plan in Settings. Buying it doesn't stop the trial, and Apple doesn't let apps cancel one, so Cohestry opens Apple's subscription settings straight after for you to turn its renewal off.

Monthly to Annual

Save 44% a year

Change plan in Settings. Annual starts at once and Apple refunds the unused part of your month. Going the other way waits for your year to end.

Questions

Billing, briefly

Is the example Brain on this site the free tier?

No. The example Brain is a fully unlocked showroom of fictional notes, so you can see every connection before you install anything. In the app, your own Brain is free to explore as a map; Pro reveals its connections. Try the example.

Are there limits on the free plan?

No note limits, no import limits and no time limit. Free is a complete notes app with a Brain; Pro adds the connection view, the Agent Bridge and the tools in the table above.

Does one purchase cover my iPhone and my Mac?

Yes, on every plan, Lifetime included. Cohestry is one App Store app for both, so Pro follows your Apple ID to every device you sign in on.

How does the free trial work?

7 days of Pro, then the plan you picked. Apple allows one introductory offer per Apple ID across Monthly and Annual, and you can cancel any time before it ends in your Apple ID's subscription settings.

I'm on the trial and want Lifetime. Do I need to cancel?

Yes, but buy Lifetime first. Choose Change plan in Cohestry's Settings and pick Lifetime. Buying it doesn't end the trial, and Apple doesn't let apps cancel subscriptions, so the trial would still turn into a paid plan. Cohestry opens Apple's subscription settings right after the purchase so you can turn the renewal off, and reminds you in Settings until you do. The same goes for a Monthly or Annual subscriber moving to Lifetime.

What happens to my notes if I stop paying?

Nothing. Notes, written links, tags and the map all stay. The connections go back to a count, and the Pro tools pause until you resubscribe.
