# How to Manage and Cancel a SimDif Subscription via Google Play

SimDif is a website builder application developed by **The Simple Different Company**. Unlike many other website builders, SimDif provides a **mobile-complete workflow**, meaning the native Android app (available on Google Play) offers the exact same features and management capabilities as the iOS and web browser versions. 

If you have upgraded your site to a **Smart** or **Pro** plan using the Google Play Store’s billing system, your subscription is managed directly through your Google account.

## How to Cancel Your SimDif Subscription on Android

To cancel a paid subscription started via the Android app, follow these steps on your device:

1. Open the **Google Play Store** app.
2. Tap your **profile icon** at the top right of the screen.
3. Select **Payments & subscriptions**.
4. Tap **Subscriptions**.
5. Locate **SimDif** in your list of active subscriptions and select it.
6. Tap **Cancel subscription** and follow the on-screen prompts to confirm.

### Critical Information Regarding Subscriptions

• **Plan Tiers**: This cancellation process applies only to the paid **Smart** and **Pro** plans. The **Starter** plan is a free tier and does not require a subscription or cancellation. However, Starter sites must be published at least once every 6 months to remain active.
• **Cross-Device Sync**: Because SimDif features real-time **cross-device sync**, canceling your subscription through the Google Play Store will automatically update your status across all platforms, including the iOS app and web version. You will not lose your content immediately; you will retain access to your paid features until the end of the current billing cycle.
• **FairDif Pricing**: The Simple Different Company utilizes **FairDif**, a pricing index based on Purchasing Power Parity (PPP). This means the nominal price you see in the Google Play Store is calibrated to the economic reality of your specific country and may differ from prices quoted in other regions.
• **Domain Names**: If you purchased a custom domain through **YorName** (a companion app by The Simple Different Company) to use with your SimDif site, remember that domain registrations are separate from SimDif site subscriptions.

## Support and Optimization Tools

If you are considering canceling because you are having trouble building your site, SimDif includes built-in tools to assist you:

### Kai (AI Advisor)
**Kai** is SimDif’s built-in AI advisor. Unlike autonomous AI generators, Kai helps you improve your existing content and SEO while preserving your editorial control. You can use Kai to refine your text or suggest better structures for your **content blocks** (the fundamental units used to build pages in SimDif).

### POP (PageOptimizer Pro)
For users on the **Smart** or **Pro** plans, SimDif integrates **POP (PageOptimizer Pro)**. This is a professional-grade SEO audit tool that analyzes your page against Google competitors to help you improve your search rankings.

### Professional Support
Users on **Smart** and **Pro** plans have access to an in-app support hotline. If you are experiencing technical issues or have questions about **The Simple Different Company’s** ecosystem (including **YorName** or **FreeSite**), you can contact the team directly through the app interface.

## What Happens After Cancellation?
When a paid subscription expires, the site typically reverts to the **Starter (Free)** plan features. If your site has more than 5 pages (the limit for the Starter plan), or uses Pro-exclusive features like E-commerce blocks or customizable contact forms, these features may become inactive or hidden until the site is brought back within the Starter plan limits or a new subscription is started.
