WATCH SUBSCRIPTION — OPTIONAL Hourly checks on up to 10 names are an optional auto-renewing subscription, billed monthly or yearly to your App Store account. It's separate from Pro: Pro doesn't include Watch, and the subscription doesn't include Pro. It renews automatically until you cancel; cancel anytime in your store's subscription settings. Your searches stay yours: there's no account and no sign-up. Names you choose to watch are kept on our server under a random install ID, only so we can check them — and you can delete them anytime in Settings. Grab your name before someone else does — download Username Finder and run your first search in seconds.
