Premium

Focal Point Premium unlocks the features that make sharing, planning, and growing into the app possible. This page covers what's included, how to subscribe, and how to cancel. For the full feature comparison, see the pricing page.

What Premium unlocks

• Unlimited projects (free is capped at 3 personal projects)
• Project sharing — collaborate with friends, family, or coworkers
• Trips — multi-stop itineraries with maps, weather, reservations, and shared expenses
• 10 GB document storage with up to 100 MB per file (free: 250 MB total, 5 MB per file)
• Local sync for Mac (Windows coming soon) — edit documents in their native apps
• Ask Focal Point — the AI assistant that can search, summarize, and act on your tasks, notes, projects, and trips (see Ask Focal Point)
• AI features — document summaries, suggested tasks, and receipt scanning for trip expenses
• Priority support

AI features and your cost ledger

Premium includes the AI features above (the Ask Focal Point assistant, document summaries, trip suggestions, stop research highlights, note synopses, receipt OCR, semantic search). All of those run on a managed AI quota that's included in your Premium subscription — you won't see a separate AI bill or be asked for an API key.

If you want to see where your AI usage is going, open Settings → AI Cost. You'll find:

• A daily chart for the last 24 hours so you can spot spikes
• Totals by feature — e.g., how much of your usage was receipt scanning vs. stop highlights
• Totals by trigger — whether the request came from something you did directly (in-app) or from a background process (e.g., auto-indexing a stop you just created for search)

Two things worth knowing:

• Some AI work happens in the background shortly after you create something — mostly tagging stops with category / typical duration / walking distance when they're added to a trip. These show up in the cost ledger under "background" and are normal.
• Re-running the same feature on the same item (e.g., refreshing a stop's research) generates a new ledger entry, not an edit of the original. The ledger is append-only, so it always reflects the real history.

Pricing

Premium is $4.99/month or $49.99/year (saves about 17%). Billing runs through Apple or Google, depending on which store you used to download Focal Point. You can cancel anytime — Premium features stay active through the end of your current billing period.

How to subscribe

1. Open Focal Point on iPhone, iPad, or Mac.
2. Tap Settings → Upgrade to Premium (or tap the upgrade banner anywhere it appears in the app).
3. Pick monthly or annual, confirm with Face ID / Touch ID / password, and you're set.

Subscriptions live with Apple or Google — not on our website — so all changes (upgrade, downgrade, cancel, resubscribe) happen inside the app or in your Apple ID / Google account settings.

How to cancel

On iPhone or iPad: Settings → [Your Name] → Subscriptions → Focal Point → Cancel Subscription.

On Mac: App Store → click your name in the sidebar → Account Settings → Subscriptions → Focal Point → Edit → Cancel Subscription.

On Android: Google Play → profile picture → Payments & subscriptions → Subscriptions → Focal Point → Cancel.

Premium features stay active until the end of your current billing period. After that you'll downshift to the free tier automatically.

What happens to my data when I cancel?

Your data stays put — nothing is deleted. After the billing period ends:

• Existing projects beyond the free 3-project limit become read-only until you either delete some or resubscribe.
• Existing Trips become read-only.
• Documents stored above the 250 MB free quota enter a 90-day grace period. During the grace period everything is still accessible. If you don't free up space or resubscribe by the end of grace, oldest files are removed first until you're back under quota. See Document Storage for the full grace-period rules.
• Project sharing is suspended for projects you own. Collaborators on those projects keep access only if the project owner is on Premium.

Storage limits

• Free: 250 MB total, 5 MB per file
• Premium: 10 GB total, 100 MB per file

Storage usage is shown in Settings → Storage. The breakdown lists usage by category (documents, images, attachments) so you can free up space deliberately.

Resubscribing

Open Focal Point and tap Upgrade to Premium. Apple and Google manage all billing, so the resubscribe flow runs through them rather than through our website. If you had Premium before, your previous data is exactly where you left it — nothing was deleted while you were on free.

Refunds

Refunds are handled by Apple and Google directly, not by us. Use reportaproblem.apple.com for App Store purchases or play.google.com/store/account/subscriptions for Google Play.
