1. Plans and Pricing

OtoTheory offers a Free plan and a Pro plan. The Free plan lets you build chord progressions, use 5 groove patterns, 20 presets, and save up to 3 sketches locally. The Pro plan unlocks all features for $2.99/month (¥500/month in Japan).

For a detailed comparison of Free and Pro features, see the Pricing page.

2. Free Trial

First-time subscribers can start with a 7-day free trial, managed through the App Store. During the trial, all Pro features are available — including unlimited saves and iCloud sync. If you cancel before the trial ends, you will not be charged.

The free trial is provided by Apple through App Store Connect. OtoTheory does not collect payment information directly.

3. Reward Ad Temporary Access

Free plan users can watch a short reward ad to unlock most Pro features for 15 minutes. During this period, you can use MIDI export, all 15 grooves, section editing, advanced chords, and ads are hidden.

However, unlimited saves and iCloud sync are not available through reward ads. These features require a paid Pro subscription or the 7-day free trial.

4. Payment

Payment is processed through Apple's in-app purchase system (App Store). TH Quest does not handle your payment information directly. Your subscription renews automatically each month. You will be charged within 24 hours before the current period ends unless you cancel beforehand.

5. How to Cancel

You can cancel your subscription at any time from Apple's settings:

iPhone / iPad: Settings → Apple ID → Subscriptions → OtoTheory Pro → Cancel Subscription

After cancellation, you can continue using Pro features until the end of your current billing period.
