After the trial
If you don't pick a plan, leave-time traffic alerts pause until you subscribe. Your saved route is kept, so alerts start again as soon as you upgrade. Meeting alarms drop to 1 a day and the shift calendar keeps working with the free limits. Karachi TweetWatch police-incident pushes keep running on every plan.
Basic versus Pro
Basic is for one commute. It keeps leave-time alerts and live "check traffic" on 1 route after the trial and lifts the meeting-alarm cap. For a second route, you need Pro.
Pro covers up to 3 routes and unlocks the full shift calendar, the lock-screen leave countdown and shift export. Yearly is the same as Pro, billed once a year. Lifetime is a one-time purchase with everything in Pro and up to 5 routes.
Meeting alarms
1 leave-time alarm a day on free. Unlimited on any paid plan. BoardSpy reads meetings from your phone calendar or Google Calendar, works out the drive at that hour, and rings when it is time to leave. Shift alarms from the BoardSpy shift calendar count toward the same daily limit on free.
