Does Time Out have a lifetime purchase option?

· FAQ · Time Out

Yes! Time Out offers a Lifetime purchase if you prefer a single payment that unlocks all current and future premium features. But there are other options too, including the flexible supporter model that has helped sustain the app for years.

The main features of Time Out are completely free. You can use it to remind you to take regular breaks without purchasing anything. Additional premium features can be tried before purchasing, so you can decide which ones are useful to you.

Become a supporter

The supporter option is a great way to get extra features at a modest price while helping fund ongoing development.

You can choose to support Time Out for 3, 6, or 12 months. These are one-time purchases, with no automatic renewal. The premium features available during your support period remain unlocked permanently, even after your supporter status expires.

If I add new premium features after your support expires, you can decide whether to renew to unlock those too. Or simply continue using the features you already have, without paying again.

I like this model because it gives you control over when and how much you pay. You can support the app once, renew occasionally when something catches your interest, or keep your support current to enjoy each new feature as it arrives.

It also means I can release improvements whenever they’re ready, instead of holding them back for a big paid upgrade. You get a useful app that keeps improving, and your support helps make those improvements possible.

Subscribe to Premium

If you use the Mac App Store edition, you can instead choose an automatically renewing Premium subscription.

This unlocks all premium features while your subscription is active, including new ones as they’re added. It’s a convenient option if you’d like to keep everything available without remembering to renew your support manually.

Choose Lifetime

If you’d rather pay once and have all current and future premium features available forever, the Lifetime option is there for you too.

Whichever option you prefer, thank you for supporting Time Out! And if the free features meet your needs, you’re very welcome to keep using those for free. The goal is to help you take better breaks, with a purchase option that works for you.
