A few things to know
How does the free trial work?
Guests can try up to 10 AI lookups. New accounts can try up to 7 days or 100 lookups, whichever ends first. After the trial, local dictionaries, saving words and review remain available. Purchasing and cloud sync require sign-in. Your account shows which allowances are available and when they expire.
What counts as an AI lookup?
A successfully generated explanation uses one lookup. Failed requests and recovering the same request do not use extra lookups. Rereading saved results is free; generating a new explanation uses another lookup. Monthly and yearly Plus both replenish 1,000 lookups each month, rather than releasing a whole year at once.
What happens at the free sync limit?
Each word counts once across devices and sources. The 100th unmastered card uploads in full, then regular uploads and downloads pause, including updates to existing cards. Local editing and review keep working. Mark a card as mastered and wait for its cloud update to free a slot; free sync resumes below 100 unmastered cards.
What happens when Plus ends?
Your local cards stay usable and cloud content saved during membership is retained. Remaining Plus lookups are frozen for one month and then cleared; frozen lookups cannot be used. On the free plan, mastered cards stay on devices that already hold them. Copies saved only under the free plan are removed from the cloud and cannot be restored on a new device. Contact support if you need help retrieving records still held in the cloud.
Will my purchase renew?
The selected option states whether it renews automatically. You can cancel future subscription renewals from your account. A fixed period ends without renewing; eligible additional purchases extend it. The currency, applicable taxes and final total are confirmed before payment. An existing subscription does not change price when you travel.
What about future features?
You can use new AI features added to Plus while your membership is active, under the usage rules published with each feature. The comparison above lists what is available today.
