Jomo pricing,
including the student discount and lifetime option

Jomo runs a freemium model with several paid paths, including a student discount and a lifetime option most competitors don't offer. The free tier is genuinely usable but limited to one of everything. Plus removes those caps, at a price that varies depending on whether you pay monthly, annually, as a student, or once for lifetime access.

This page focuses specifically on cost. For the full feature comparison against Fella, see Fella vs Jomo. What follows is a plain breakdown of what you pay and what you get at each tier.

These are current US pricing figures. The 3-day trial is specific to the annual Plus plan's onboarding flow; a separate 14-day referral grant exists but is code-redeemed rather than a standard plan trial. Regional pricing can vary, so confirm the exact figure at checkout.

Jomo's free tier gives you one of each core building block. 1 Session, 1 Action or Limit, and 1 Screen Time Budget are included, along with Squads for social accountability and basic Reports, a genuinely functional starting point rather than a stripped demo.

The limitation is quantity, not access to the core mechanic. You can test Jomo's actual blocking and Squad features for free; you just can't run multiple sessions, limits, or budgets simultaneously without upgrading.

Strict Mode's full feature set is a Plus benefit. Strict Mode prevents rule deletion, changes, uninstall, and date/time changes, with an Always-On option, protections that go beyond what the single free-tier session covers.

Multiple sessions, limits, and budgets require Plus. The free tier's cap of one each is the clearest limitation, useful for testing, restrictive for daily use across more than a single app category.

Full Strict Mode functionality is a Plus feature. Rule-deletion prevention, uninstall protection, date/time-change blocking, and Always-On mode all sit behind the paid tier.

Unlock friction options scale with Plus too. Jomo's full range of unlock friction tasks, waiting, typing a reason, retyping a phrase, a password, a QR code, or photo proof, is part of the paid experience alongside Emergency Mode's 2-uses-per-week cap.

Monthly is the most expensive path per year. At $5.99 a month, a full year costs about $71.88, notably more than the $29.99 annual plan for the same features.

Annual is the standard value tier, at roughly $2.50 a month. $29.99 a year is the plan Jomo itself builds its 3-day trial around, making it the natural entry point for anyone confident they'll stick with Plus.

Students get a meaningful discount on that same annual plan. $14.99 with proof of yearly enrollment cuts the standard annual price in half, though it's not available on monthly or lifetime purchases.

Lifetime breaks even in a little over three years. At $99.99, it costs about 3.3 years of the standard annual plan, worthwhile only for someone confident in long-term use who wants to stop paying entirely.

The free tier suits someone testing whether Jomo's friction-task model and Squads fit their habits. One session and one budget is enough to try the core mechanic before paying anything.

Students get the best per-dollar value on this list. $14.99 a year for the full Plus feature set is hard to beat if you're eligible.

The lifetime plan suits long-term users confident in the product. At $99.99, it's a reasonable commitment for anyone planning to use Jomo for several years and wanting to stop the recurring charge.

Jomo is cheaper than Fella at every comparable tier, and it offers a free version and a lifetime option Fella doesn't have. If price and flexibility of payment model matter most, Jomo's pricing is the stronger fit on paper.

Fella trades that price and flexibility for a single, unchanging rule. There's no free tier to test first and no lifetime option, but the $9.99 monthly or $34.99 yearly price includes the same 5-minute emergency unlock per session whether you're on day one or day one thousand, nothing to upgrade into.

The choice depends on whether you want to pay less for more configuration, or more for less to configure. Jomo's tiers reward careful setup. Fella's flat price buys the same fixed rule regardless of how it's paid for. See how Fella works or Fella's current pricing for specifics.
