Purchases and subscriptions
Everything about buying, renewing and cancelling happens with Apple.

I paid, but Kutio Pro is not unlocked
Open any Pro feature and choose Restore Purchases on the sheet that appears. Make sure you are signed in to the same Apple Account you purchased with.
How do I cancel the yearly subscription?
Open System Settings, your name, Subscriptions (or the App Store app, your account, Subscriptions), choose Kutio Pro and Cancel.
Cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Apple’s own page works too: apps.apple.com/account/subscriptions.
How do I get a refund?
Purchases are handled by Apple, so refunds are requested through Apple rather than through us, at reportaproblem.apple.com. If something is broken, write to us first. We would much rather fix it.
What happens if my subscription lapses?
Creating, editing, encrypting and splitting archives become unavailable again until you renew or switch to the lifetime unlock. Opening, browsing, previewing, extracting and verifying archives stay free, exactly as they were before you subscribed. Any archive you already created keeps working normally in Kutio or any other archive tool; a lapsed subscription never locks or deletes anything you’ve made.
Why is Kutio Pro a subscription instead of a one-time purchase?
It’s offered both ways: an annual subscription, or a one-time lifetime purchase that never expires. A subscription supports the ongoing work of keeping Kutio compatible with new macOS releases and continuing to take file safety seriously. If you’d rather pay once, the lifetime option unlocks exactly the same features for good.
Is there a free trial?
There is no trial period because there is nothing to time out. Opening, browsing, previewing, extracting and verifying archives are free forever, so you can use Kutio as long as you like before deciding on Kutio Pro.
Which currency are the prices in?
Prices are shown in US dollars. Your App Store shows the price for your country.
Look inside any archive before you extract it.
