What do I get when I subscribe?

It's only fair to mention that PocketFMS will stop functioning when your subscription expires. The analogy with the aforementioned newspaper or magazine subscription is valid here too - when you stop the payment, you also stop the newspaper from coming in. Approximately 30 days before your subscription will expire, PocketFMS will start reminding you of this.


PocketFMS is not for sale, but instead uses a subscription system like a newspaper or magazine. You can purchase a subscription for the period of a year at a time. If you do not have a valid subscription but would like to have one, simply make sure you have the latest version of PocketFMS installed. PocketFMS Desktop will prompt you to subscribe, which you can conveniently do by pressing its [Subscribe] button. A simple, 4-step process takes you towards your subscription.
