Our 4 Commitments on Pricing, Kids & Family Data
1. Never Charge Per Child or Per Caregiver
Larger or blended families should never be penalized. Both Free Family and Family Plus cover your household—including all children, co-parents, grandparents, and babysitters.
2. Zero Upsells or Paywalls in Child Mode
Children using Kid Mode (#/kid) never see subscription banners, locked reward chests, or "ask your parent to upgrade" prompts. Plan information is strictly adult-facing.
3. Your Memories Are Never Held Hostage
If a household ever downgrades from Family Plus to Free Family in production, all existing memories, quotes, photos, and portable JSON/Markdown exports remain 100% accessible.
