Last updated: 2026-08-21

Apple determines whether a subscriber is eligible for the14-day introductory offer on monthly and yearly Premium.Apple decides eligibility and displays the authoritative offer, localized price, and renewal terms in the App Store purchase sheet before you confirm.

Which Apple plans qualify?

  • Monthly: 14-day introductory offer when Apple determines the subscriber is eligible.
  • Yearly: 14-day introductory offer when Apple determines the subscriber is eligible.
  • Lifetime: Lifetime has no trial. It is a one-time Apple purchase.

Eligibility and renewal

Each person can redeem one introductory offer per subscription group. If the purchase sheet does not show the offer, do not assume it will be applied. Apple says to cancel a free or discounted trial at least 24 hours before it ends if you do not want it to renew.

The offer stays on Apple

An Apple subscription unlocks only the Apple edition. It does not create an Alfie account or unlock a separate Android purchase.
