Choose Pro Annual, an auto-renewing subscription, or Pro Lifetime, a one-time purchase with no recurring charge. Both unlock all Pro features.

Manage or cancel subscriptions in Apple Account settings. Restore purchases using the same Apple Account. Buying Lifetime does not automatically cancel an existing subscription. LemonLog is a personal documentation tool, not a law firm or case evaluation service. It does not provide legal advice, determine eligibility, file documents, communicate on your behalf or refer attorneys. Entries identify their review scope; unverified numeric summaries are withheld. Record comparisons are estimates and do not automatically validate legal dates, mileage, holidays or procedure. Verify with current state code or a licensed attorney before acting. CSV export contains text records, not photos, and is not a restorable backup.
