Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is there a minimum commitment for the monthly subscription?

A: Monthly subscriptions are billed on a calendar month basis. You can cancel at any time, and your subscription will remain active until the end of your current billing period.

  • You get a 10% off if you choose the quarterly billing cycle.

  • You get a 20% off if you choose the half-yearly billing cycle.

  • You get a 30% off if you choose the yearly billing cycle.

Q: How is the environment cost calculated?

A: Environment costs are billed daily at $0.03 per 24-hour period based on your active configuration. This charge is separate from device costs and covers the infrastructure required to run your cloud phone environment.

Q: Can I change the cloud phone device Android version?

A: A cloud phone device needs an environment to function. Once the environment is set to bind with a device type, such as Android 12, it cannot be changed. But you can change how you want the device to be billed. You can choose to rent a temporary device for this environment, or choose an owned (purchased) device, but they will need to be the same Android version.

Q: Do I need to pay for both device cost and environment cost?

A: Yes, both costs apply. Device cost covers the individual devices you use, while environment cost covers the shared infrastructure that supports your cloud phone environment.

Q: Can I use one cloud phone environment for different devices?

A: Yes and no. An environment can only be used in one device at a time. However, you can choose to change to rent a temporary device for this environment, or an owned (purchased) device, but they will need to be the same Android version, Android 12 or Android 15.
