Questions

Before you buy

Do the people I invite have to pay?

No. Anyone can join any competition free, a race or a two-month competition included. Only the person who starts it needs Premium.

What happens if my subscription ends?

Everything you already started keeps going. Competitions finish normally, family members stay in the competitions they're in, and you can still type in their steps. You just can't start anything new that needs Premium.

Can my family share a purchase?

Yes. Every purchase and All Access work with Apple's Family Sharing, so two parents only buy once.

Where do I buy it?

In the app: Profile, then Premium. Restore Purchases is on the same screen if you get a new phone.

Can I get a refund?

Purchases go through Apple, so refunds do too, at reportaproblem.apple.com.
