Yucts Plus Subscription
Yucts Plus is the app's paid plan. The macOS version handles purchases and billing through the Apple App Store.
How to open it: under "Settings (⌘,) → Account", click "Yucts Plus Membership" to open the subscription panel.
The macOS and iOS versions of Yucts Travel are the same app, so Yucts Plus is a Universal Purchase: as long as you use the same Apple Account, a Yucts Plus purchase made on your iPhone/iPad takes effect automatically on your Mac, and vice versa, with no need to pay again. In addition, once you sign in with the same forum account, your membership benefits are consistent across devices.
Plans
| Plan | Description |
|---|---|
| Monthly | Auto-renewing |
| Yearly | Auto-renewing |
| Lifetime | One-time payment, permanent (not a subscription) |
Benefits
- Ad-free clean reading (the macOS version is ad-free to begin with).
- Advanced AI usage.
- VIP badge and theme color.
- Advanced cloud trip backup.
Determining Membership Status
Whether you're a Plus member is determined by combining two sources; if either is active, you're treated as Plus:
- Apple in-app purchase: a monthly / yearly / lifetime purchase completed through the App Store inside the app.
- Backend entitlement: the membership entitlement returned by the server after you sign in.
Existing members will still correctly show the active badge even if the App Store temporarily can't fetch the plans.
Purchasing and Restoring Purchases
- Select a plan and purchase it, completing payment through Apple.
- After switching to a new device or reinstalling, click "Restore Purchases" to restore your existing entitlements. Because this is a Universal Purchase, a Yucts Plus purchase made on your iPhone/iPad can also be restored here (using the same Apple Account).
Plans appear after the configuration in App Store Connect takes effect. In a testing environment (such as a sandbox), temporarily not being able to fetch the plans is normal and is not an error.
