DLM Premium is the paid plan that powers the Blocker side of the app — the shield, the unblock-request flow, customisable block windows. Key Holders never need to subscribe.
What it costs
- Monthly: $5.99 / mo
- Yearly: $35.99 / yr (50% off the monthly rate)
- Free trial: 3 days on every new subscription
Prices automatically show in your local currency once DLM is on the App Store in your country. Apple handles the conversion.
Starting a subscription
The paywall shows automatically after you complete onboarding + pairing + block setup. Pick Monthly or Yearly, tap "Start 3-day free trial", confirm with Face ID. You're in.
Trials only run once per Apple ID. If you've trialed DLM Premium before, the button changes from "Start trial" to "Subscribe" and you pay from day one.
Apple Family Sharing
DLM Premium is Family Sharing enabled. If you're in an Apple Family, one paid plan covers up to five family members. That means a couple or a pair of housemates can both use DLM as Blockers with one subscription.
Family Sharing is set up in iOS Settings → [your name] → Family. DLM will automatically detect and apply the shared entitlement next time the app launches.
Cancelling
Apple subscriptions are all managed through iOS Settings, not inside DLM (Apple's rules). To cancel:
- Open iOS Settings → [your name] → Subscriptions.
- Tap DLM Premium.
- Tap Cancel Subscription.
You keep access until the end of the period you've already paid for. After that, your shield comes down. See What happens if my subscription lapses.
Restoring purchases on a new device
If you've signed in to a new iPhone or reinstalled DLM, your subscription doesn't appear automatically. Open Settings inside DLM and tap Restore purchases. Apple pushes your entitlement back to the app.
Refunds
Refunds for IAP subscriptions are handled by Apple, not us. Go to reportaproblem.apple.com within 90 days of the charge, find the DLM Premium transaction, and request a refund. Apple decides. We can't override their decision.
