What happens when Dayplan Pro or your trial ends

When Pro ends, Dayplan moves your account to the Free plan and keeps your work. Nothing you made is deleted. The Pro features stop until you upgrade again, and the ones that hold a connection, like calendar sync, pause so they can pick up where they left off.

When Pro endsCopy Anchor Link

Your account moves to the Free plan when:

• You cancelled Pro and the period you paid for is over.
• You cancelled during the free trial and the trial's last day has passed.
• The first charge after your trial didn't go through. Pro pauses until the payment succeeds. Settings → Plan & billing says There's a problem with your payment — update your card to keep Pro.

If a renewal payment fails after you've already paid for Pro, you keep Pro while the payment is retried. Updating your card in Manage billing settles it. See Manage your subscription.

Your tasks stayCopy Anchor Link

Every task, area, note and plan stays exactly where it was. You can still open, edit, finish, reschedule and delete them.

The Free plan has a task limit, and it counts every task you have, including finished ones. If you're over the limit when Pro ends:

• Nothing is removed.
• A banner says you've reached the Free plan's task limit and that New tasks are paused.
• Adding a new task shows the same message with Upgrade to Pro.
• You can still add subtasks and breaks; they don't count.

To add tasks again, delete tasks you no longer need until you're under the limit, or upgrade. See The Free plan task limit for what counts. The limit itself is on Dayplan plans.

Your calendars pauseCopy Anchor Link

Google Calendar and Apple Calendar sync are part of Pro. When Pro ends, your connected calendars are paused, not deleted:

• Their events are hidden from the calendar, Today and Horizon (Dayplan's home view). Nothing is removed from Google or Apple.
• Dayplan shows a one-time notice, External calendars are paused.
• The calendar toolbar shows External calendars paused.
• Settings → Calendars shows Sync paused and marks each account Paused. Your connection is saved.

Blocks you created in Dayplan stay on your Dayplan calendar, and so do events you imported from a calendar file.

If you'd rather Dayplan forget a paused connection, select Disconnect next to it in Settings → Calendars.

The Coach, voice and photo scan waitCopy Anchor Link

The Coach, voice input and photo scan are part of Pro.

• The Coach panel shows The Dayplan Coach is part of Dayplan Pro with Upgrade to Pro.
• If you text the Coach over iMessage, it replies that the Coach is part of Dayplan Pro and that you can upgrade in the app.

Connected assistants pauseCopy Anchor Link

AI assistants you connected, like Claude or ChatGPT, stay connected, but they can't read or change your planner while you're on Free:

• When an assistant tries, Dayplan tells it the account isn't on Pro right now, and the assistant passes that on to you.
• Settings → Connected agents says Assistants are part of Dayplan Pro. The ones below stay connected, and work again as soon as you upgrade.

To remove one for good, select Disconnect… next to it. See Use Dayplan with AI assistants.

Get Pro backCopy Anchor Link

Select Upgrade to Pro in Settings → Plan & billing, or on any of the messages above, and subscribe. Free trials are one per person, so if you've had one, the first payment is taken straight away.

When Pro is back:

• Paused calendars resume on their own within a few minutes. You don't need to reconnect them, and changes made in Google or Apple while they were paused come in.
• The Coach, voice input and photo scan work again.
• Connected AI assistants work again. You don't need to reconnect them.
• The task limit no longer applies.

Frequently asked questionsCopy Anchor Link

Will I lose my tasks if I don't renew?Copy Anchor Link

No. Your tasks stay on the Free plan. If you have more than the Free limit, you can keep using them but can't add new ones until you delete some or upgrade.

Are my Google Calendar events deleted when Pro ends?Copy Anchor Link

No. Dayplan pauses the sync and hides those events inside Dayplan. Your Google and Apple calendars themselves aren't changed, and the connection is saved for when you upgrade.

Do I have to reconnect my calendars after upgrading?Copy Anchor Link

No. A paused connection resumes on its own within a few minutes of upgrading.

Can I still use Dayplan for free after my trial?Copy Anchor Link

Yes. The Free plan has no time limit. You keep daily planning, the Dayplan calendar, Quick Capture and daily shutdown. See Dayplan plans.

Why did Pro stop even though I didn't cancel?Copy Anchor Link

The first charge after your trial probably didn't go through. Open Settings → Plan & billing, select Manage billing, and update your card.
