What this screen is for

North Star has two tiers — Free and Premium. This page explains what's in each so you can pick what suits you.

Free

You can use North Star without paying anything. Free includes:

  • Daily devotional (full text and reflection)
  • Full Bible in NIV, ESV, KJV, NKJV — all features (read, audio, highlights, notes, search)
  • Verse cards (unlimited)
  • Journal — write as much as you want; no AI feedback
  • Community prayer wall — read, post, pray
  • Reading plans — every human-written plan
  • One AI Bible chat per day (Ask tab)
  • Three journal entries per day
  • First week of one discipleship pathway (a taster, lifetime)
  • Pastoral Care — free topics, scripture and a prayer at the end (without AI follow-up)

You can use the free plan indefinitely. There's no time limit, no nag screens to upgrade.

Premium — three options

All three include the same features. They differ only on how you pay.

Monthly — £7.99 / month

  • 7-day free trial (cancel before day 7 and you're not charged)
  • Best if you want to try Premium without committing

Annual — £49.99 / year

  • Works out around £4.17 / month — about 48% off monthly
  • The most popular option

Lifetime — £99 one-off

  • Pay once, never pay again
  • Limited availability — capped at the first 30 buyers

Every Premium tier unlocks:

  • Unlimited AI Bible chats (Ask tab)
  • AI journal feedback ("Let's Talk" mode)
  • AI prayer writing (auto prayers in the Prayer tab)
  • All weeks of every discipleship pathway (not just the taster)
  • Sermon builder (turn a passage into a sermon outline)
  • Priority support

See the Fair Use Policy for the AI usage limits.

Q: Can I switch between monthly and annual? Yes — manage it from your phone's subscription settings.

Q: What happens to my data if I cancel? Nothing — you keep your account, journal, notes, highlights, prayers, and community posts. You just drop back to the free tier limits.

Q: Is there a family or church plan? Not yet. Coming soon. Drop us feedback if you'd like one.
