Everything you log and every chart it draws, the barcode scanner, your own reminders, backup, export, connections, the watch and widgets, the picture of your week, and your first Sensei letter.

The 30 days of Kata Plus

Every account starts with 30 days of Kata Plus, once per person, with no card and no automatic charge. Afterwards you keep Kata Free and choose a plan only if you want one.

Messages and fair use

  • Kata Free: 300 messages a month, about 10 exchanges a day.
  • Kata Plus: 500 messages a month, more than almost anyone uses.
  • Kata Unlimited: no ceiling, on fair use. Past about 1,500 messages a month, replies come from the fast model and new photo readings wait until next month.

Near the edge of your plan, Kata says so once, calmly. Logging never stops.

Buying a plan

In the iPhone app through the App Store, in the Android app through Google Play. The store shows its price for your country. Monthly or yearly: yearly costs less per month. One account carries one plan, on every device.

Change or cancel

  • App Store: in your Apple Account, Subscriptions.
  • Google Play: in Google Play, Payments and subscriptions.
  • Bought on the web: Settings, Plan, Manage your plan. A web plan can also pause for 1 to 3 months.

Cancelling stops the next renewal; you keep the plan until the end of the period you paid for. Restore purchases in Settings, Plan brings a store plan back on a new device.

Covered by your company

If your employer or insurer covers Kata, your plan shows as covered while your membership runs. They never see anything you log. See Partners.
