Matcha pricing and free trial

Matcha is free to download, but you need Matcha Pro to use it. The yearly plan is $9.99 a year after a 7-day free trial. The weekly plan is $0.99 a week, with no trial. Pro includes every feature, and nothing is free after the trial. These are US prices; each country has its own.

Exporting or deleting your data works with or without a subscription.

How the free trial works

The 7-day trial comes with the yearly plan. Apple offers it once per Apple ID: if yours has had a Matcha trial or subscription before, the paywall shows the plans without it.

You pay nothing during the 7 days. When they end, Apple charges the yearly price unless you cancel at least 24 hours before. Profile › Subscription shows the day your trial ends.

Prices outside the US

Each App Store country has its own price for Matcha, in its own currency, so yours may differ from $9.99 or $0.99. The paywall and Apple’s purchase sheet both show it before you confirm.

How to cancel

Use either of these:

  1. In Matcha: Profile › Subscription › Manage subscription.
  2. On your iPhone: Settings › your name › Subscriptions › Matcha › Cancel Subscription. Apple’s steps are in Cancel a subscription from Apple.

Deleting the app doesn’t cancel the subscription.

When a subscription ends

Matcha opens on the paywall. Your dishes, photos and lists stay on your iPhone, and when you subscribe again everything is where you left it. The ••• button at the top of the paywall still lets you export your data, delete it or contact support.

Restore your subscription on a new iPhone

Sign in with the Apple ID you subscribed with, then tap Restore at the bottom of the paywall, or go to Profile › Restore purchases. Moving your dishes and photos to the new iPhone is covered on the support page.
