COMPANIONSHIP YOU CAN COUNT ON Core companionship is free — we believe a friendly conversation shouldn't be locked behind a paywall. No ads, ever. A NOTE ON WHAT GRANDA IS Granda is an AI companion — a friendly computer program, not a real person. It's here for company and conversation, and it is not a substitute for medical care, professional advice, or human relationships. Granda does not provide medical guidance. Your conversations are private, and we never use your message content for advertising. You're always in control of your data and can delete it any time. Download Granda — and never feel alone. ## Pricing and in-app purchases Base price: Free. **Subscriptions** | Subscription | Price | Period | | --- | --- | --- | | Granda Family Annual | $199.00 | per year | | Granda Family Monthly | $22.00 | per month | ## Version history (last 5 releases) ### 1.0.27 — 2026-10-01 Have a promo code?

After you sign up, one short agreement is all that stands between you and your first conversation — no questionnaire, no extra screens. If we don't already know your name, Granda will ask what to call you (you can skip it, and change it any time in Settings), and then you're straight into a voice chat. The optional wellness check-in still exists; it just waits until you've had a chance to settle in. We've also fixed a bug that could greet some people as "Guest User" instead of by name. ### 1.0.12 — 2026-08-28 • The app version is now shown more clearly in Settings • Small fixes and improvements throughout We'd love your feedback: info@granda.ca --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
