Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can I try Flame or Blaze before paying?
A: During beta, some users have access to higher tiers. Once payment launches, we may offer a free trial period.
Q: Do both partners need separate subscriptions?
A: No! Subscriptions are automatically shared between linked partners. When one partner has a paid subscription, both enjoy the premium benefits. If both partners have paid subscriptions, the highest tier applies to both. See Partner Subscription Sharing below for details.
Q: What happens if I cancel?
A: You keep access to your paid tier until the end of your billing period, then downgrade to Ember (Free). All your data remains safe.
Q: Can I get a refund?
A: Refunds are handled case-by-case. Contact support within 14 days of purchase.
Q: Do unused limits roll over?
A: No, limits reset each period. Use them or lose them!
Q: Is there a yearly payment option?
A: Not currently, but annual plans with discounts are planned for the future.
Q: Can I gift a subscription to someone?
A: Not yet, but gift subscriptions are coming soon!
Q: What if I need more than Blaze offers?
A: Blaze has unlimited profile and suggestion generations. If you need more AI chat messages, contact us for enterprise options.
Partner Subscription Sharing
When you link with a partner in ReKindle, your subscriptions are automatically shared!
How It Works
- One Pays, Both Benefit: If you have a paid subscription (Flame or Blaze), your linked partner also gets access to those premium benefits
- Highest Tier Wins: If both partners have paid subscriptions, the higher tier applies to both (e.g., one has Flame + one has Blaze = both get Blaze benefits)
- No Setup Required: Subscription sharing happens automatically when you link with a partner
Example Scenarios
| Your Plan | Partner's Plan | Effective Plan for Both |
|---|---|---|
| Ember (Free) | Ember (Free) | Ember |
| Flame ($9.99) | Ember (Free) | Flame |
| Ember (Free) | Blaze ($19.99) | Blaze |
| Flame ($9.99) | Flame ($9.99) | Flame (consider canceling one!) |
| Flame ($9.99) | Blaze ($19.99) | Blaze |
Subscription Indicators
In the app, you'll see helpful badges in your subscription settings:
- 🟢 "Shared from Partner" - You're enjoying premium features from your partner's subscription
- 🔵 "Sharing with Partner" - Your partner is benefiting from your subscription
- ⚠️ "Both Partners Have Subscriptions" - A hint that one of you could save money
What Happens When You Unlink?
If you unlink from your partner:
- Immediate Effect: Each partner returns to their own subscription tier
- No Grace Period: If you were using your partner's subscription benefits, you lose access immediately
- Warning Shown: The app warns you about subscription impact before you confirm unlinking
- Notification Sent: Both partners are notified about the change
Tips for Couples
- 💡 Save Money: Only one partner needs to pay - the benefits are shared automatically
- 💡 Choose Wisely: Decide together which partner should hold the subscription
- 💡 Upgrade Together: If one partner upgrades, both benefit immediately
If both you and your partner have paid subscriptions, one of you could cancel and save money! The higher-tier subscription will continue to cover both of you.
