Subscription & billing

Apple handles all subscription management and refunds for App Store purchases. Use the links below to go straight to the right place.

Permissions & troubleshooting

Almost every "Upster isn't working" report traces back to a permission that wasn't granted (or got revoked). Here's the checklist:

Frequently asked questions

How do I cancel my Upster subscription?

Subscriptions are managed by Apple. Open Settings on your iPhone, tap your name at the top, then Subscriptions, then Upster, then Cancel Subscription. We cannot cancel on your behalf.

How do I get a refund?

Refunds for App Store purchases are handled by Apple. Visit reportaproblem.apple.com, sign in with your Apple ID, find the Upster charge, and request a refund. Apple's refund policy applies.

I lost my subscription on a new device — how do I restore it?

Open Upster, go to Settings, and tap Restore Purchases. Make sure you are signed into the same Apple ID you used to subscribe. Restoration uses Apple's receipt validation.

Upster is not detecting my movement. What do I do?

Open iOS Settings, scroll to Upster, and confirm Motion & Fitness and Health permissions are enabled. Then open the Health app, tap your profile, then Apps and Services, then Upster, and confirm step-count read access is on.

I am not getting nudges.

Check Settings → Notifications → Upster and confirm notifications are allowed. Inside Upster, confirm your active hours include the current time and that nudges are not silenced. If you granted Calendar access, an active meeting will suppress nudges.

Does Upster work without Apple Health?

Yes. Upster falls back to Core Motion when Apple Health is unavailable. Granting Health access improves accuracy but is not required.

Privacy & data

Upster is built to be data-light. Health, motion, and calendar reads happen on-device and never leave your phone. For the full breakdown, read the Privacy Policy.
