Who pays

Only the circle owner pays. Premium applies to the circles that person owns, so everyone in those circles gets the Premium features there. Joining someone else's circle is always free.

Price and free trial

Prices are set in the App Store and Google Play and vary by country. The app shows your price before you buy. The yearly plan can include a 7-day free trial if your store account is eligible. In the phone app, tap Upgrade to Premium at the top of Profile. You can also upgrade on the web at my.circlecare.app under "Profile".

If Premium ends

Nothing is deleted.

  • On a circle with more caregivers than the free plan allows, the caregiver who joined first keeps editing and the others become view-only.
  • Managers go back to being caregivers. If you subscribe again, you choose managers again.
  • Existing shifts stay visible but become read-only.
  • If you own more than one circle, the app asks you to choose one to keep with free access ("Choose circle"). The others become read-only for everyone until you subscribe again. You can make this choice only once.
  • When you subscribe again, everything goes back to normal.
