Unpluq pricing,
two channels, one optional Tag

Unpluq's pricing has more moving parts than most competitors: a free tier, two different Premium pricing channels, a family option, and optional hardware. The core question, whether you need the physical Tag, changes almost nothing about which software tier you need, since both free and Premium work through digital barriers alone.

This page focuses specifically on cost. For the full feature comparison against Fella, see Fella vs Unpluq. What follows is a plain breakdown of what you pay across every channel.

Two genuinely separate pricing systems exist here. The App Store handles standard in-app subscriptions at $6.99/mo or $59.99/yr. Unpluq's own web shop offers different term lengths and factors in whether the Tag is bundled, so comparing them requires knowing which channel you're buying through.

2 apps and 1 schedule is a real, if narrow, starting point. You can block two distracting apps on one schedule using two digital barriers, tap buttons or shake phone, entirely for free.

The Tag isn't required even on the free tier. Both digital barriers included in the free plan work without any hardware purchase, so you can test the core mechanic at zero cost, no Tag needed.

The cap is scope: more apps, more schedules, more barrier variety all need Premium. 2 apps covers a narrow habit. Anyone with three or more distracting apps, or wanting different schedules for different times, will hit the free tier's limit quickly.

At $26.50, the Tag is a standalone purchase, not bundled into the base software price. You can use Unpluq's digital barriers, shake, tap, scroll, QR code, or a random challenge, without ever buying the physical Tag.

Buying it bundled with a web-shop Premium plan costs a few dollars more than the Tag-free equivalent. 6-month Premium runs $43 without the Tag or $47 with it; 12-month runs $78 without or $82 with, a modest premium for the physical hardware option.

Family plans include a Tag by default. Both Family Lite ($79.95/year, 3 phones) and Family Full ($99.95/year, unlimited phones) come with 1 Tag included in the price.

For a full year, the App Store channel is actually the cheaper of the two. The App Store's $59.99 annual price undercuts the web shop's 12-month rate of $78 without a Tag, or $82 with one, worth comparing directly before choosing a channel.

Shorter web-shop terms cost more per month than committing annually through either channel. The 3-month plan at $30 works out to $10/month, and the 6-month plan at $43-$47 works out to roughly $7.17-$7.83/month, both higher than the $59.99/12 = $5/month rate on the App Store annual plan.

Confirm the current price on whichever channel you're actually using. Since these are two separate systems with different terms, the cheapest path depends on your commitment length and whether you want the Tag, not a single universal answer.

The free tier suits someone testing the barrier-based model on one or two specific apps. No Tag purchase required, and no subscription commitment, a genuinely low-risk way to try the core mechanic.

App Store annual is the simplest paid path for most people. $59.99/year through the same channel as the app download itself, with no need to navigate a separate web-shop checkout.

Families needing multiple phones covered should compare Family Lite against buying separate individual plans. $79.95/year for 3 phones plus a Tag is likely cheaper than three separate Premium subscriptions.

Unpluq is cheaper monthly, but Fella is meaningfully cheaper annually. $34.99 a year versus $59.99 is a real gap in Fella's favor if you're committing for a full year through Unpluq's App Store channel.

Unpluq's free tier and optional hardware are real advantages if flexibility matters to you. You can start at zero cost and decide later whether a physical Tag is worth the extra few dollars, options Fella's flat pricing doesn't offer.

Fella trades that flexibility for pricing simplicity. One price, $9.99 monthly or $34.99 yearly, no channel to choose, no Tag decision, and no term-length math to work through. See how Fella works or Fella's current pricing.
