Need to reduce your subscription? Here's what to know.

Downgrade Options

From Pro or Family to Free

Cancelling the subscription is the downgrade: you keep the premium features until the end of the period you've paid for, then move to Free.

  • Go to Settings > Subscription
  • Click Cancel Subscription
  • Click Yes, Cancel
  • See Canceling Your Subscription for details.

    From Yearly to Monthly, or Family to Pro

  • Go to Settings > Subscription and click Change Plan
  • Pick the plan and billing period you want
  • Click Switch to this plan
  • The change takes effect right away, and the unused part of what you already paid is credited toward your next invoice.

    What Happens When You Downgrade to Free

    You Keep:

  • All your food logs and history; there is no history limit on Free
  • Your profile, preferences and health mode
  • Every lab result you've uploaded or entered
  • Your favorites, collections and custom foods
  • Barcode scanning, water tracking, the fasting timer and progress charts
  • You Lose Access To:

  • Lab PDF upload and auto-import (manual entry still works)
  • AI recommendations and health insights
  • AI meal planning
  • Photo food logging
  • Priority email support
  • Timing

  • Cancelling to Free takes effect at the end of your current billing period, and you keep premium features until then
  • Switching between paid plans takes effect right away, with the unused part of your payment credited toward your next invoice
  • Beyond that credit there are no refunds for mid-period downgrades, except as covered by the refund policy
  • Before You Downgrade

    Consider:

  • Save what you want to keep: AI meal plans and insights stop being generated on Free
  • Enter pending lab results: PDFs can't be uploaded on Free, though the values already extracted stay in your account
  • Can I Upgrade Again Later?

    Yes. Upgrade from Settings > Subscription at any time:

  • You get immediate access
  • All your data will still be there
  • Your tracking history is preserved
  • Questions?

    Will I lose my lab results?

    No, they're kept, and you can keep adding results by hand. Uploading PDFs needs Pro or Family.

    What about my health mode?

    It stays exactly as you set it. All 6 health modes are part of the Free plan.
