KinNestOne plan, everything included.
A small subscription keeps your record up to date and trustworthy — so your family is reached at the right time.
KinNest is in beta, and the beta is free. No payment is taken.
Every plan starts with a free 30-day trial — set everything up and see how it feels.
Why KinNest isn't free
We seriously considered making it free. We chose not to. Here is the reason.
A free record gets set up once and forgotten: numbers change, policies lapse, the app gets uninstalled. And a forgotten, out-of-date record is a risk to your family. If it ever reached out on its own, it could go to the wrong person, or raise a false alarm and cause needless panic.
A small subscription keeps your record current, checked on, and correct on the day it matters. It is also how we earn — which means we never need to show ads or sell your data.
Also: this is not a one-time activity. Numbers change, banks merge, people move. A record like this only works if it stays updated for the rest of your life, whether you begin at thirty or at seventy. A subscription is what lets a small company keep this running for decades.
What happens if the subscription ever stops
Payments stop for many reasons — a card expires, a bank changes, life gets busy. Here is exactly what happens, in plain words.
A failed payment is not treated as leaving. Google Play retries the payment for a while, and your subscription stays active during that window.
If the subscription really does end, an already-running countdown carries on. A stopped payment does not tell us what happened. It could be you cancelling, a relative cancelling, a card that expired, or something happening to you. So we do not treat it as a request to stop a watch you started. If no watch had started, expiry creates no countdown or family contact.
What stops is the date moving. For a running watch, the date stays anchored at your last accepted Check in. Subscribing restores check-in permission; an accepted Check in then moves the date. On the fixed date we reach out to the people you named and ask them to check on you.
Configuration freezes, but your record is not locked away. You cannot add or edit content or nominees, or check in, while coverage is over. You can still delete content, remove a nominee, and export your record. Nothing is deleted because a payment stopped.
For a running watch, every runoff message explains that we cannot tell who ended the subscription. It offers two doors. Subscribe again to restore check-in permission, or pause the countdown from your signed-in device. Pausing cannot be done from an email link. One pause per account; only subscribing again lifts it.
Here is what this costs, and we would rather you read it now than meet it later. If your watch was running when coverage ended, and you ignore the messages without pausing, we may contact your family while you are perfectly well. If you pause and then something happens to you, nothing is delivered. Both outcomes are real.
You will hear from us about it. Straight away when the subscription ends, then once a month, then every other day through the week before the date. Not to chase you for money — you are the only person who can say which of the two doors is the right one.
And nothing is ever quietly removed. A record that has sat silent and unpaid for years may eventually have to go — data-protection rules ask us not to keep things longer than we need them, and we would rather tell you that than pretend otherwise. If that day ever comes we tell you first — by email, and on your phone if you have notifications on. Removal is never a surprise, and for as long as the record is here, so is the way back in.
