Subscription Cost Calculator

Choose an app or enter its prices. The table shows what it costs over 1, 3, 5, and 10 years next to Pinwork's monthly, yearly, and lifetime prices.

How to read the table

Pick a time span above the table: 1, 3, 5, or 10 years. One column shows the selected app, the other shows Pinwork, and each row is a way of paying. A cell is the total paid over that span, assuming prices stay the same. The cheapest way to pay on each side is in bold, and "Not offered" marks a plan the app does not sell.

  1. A monthly price is multiplied by 12 and the number of years.
  2. A yearly price is multiplied by the number of years.
  3. A one-time or lifetime price stays the same whatever the span.

The lines below the table name the cheapest option on each side for that span and give the break-even point for Pinwork lifetime access against the selected app: the first whole month on its monthly plan, and the first whole year on its yearly plan, that costs as much as the lifetime price. Print keeps the span on screen; Copy result lists all four.

What a lifetime price does not include

A one-time or lifetime label does not guarantee every future major version. OmniFocus lists a Standard perpetual license; its Pro tier and future major-version upgrades cost more. Some apps also sell separate purchases per platform. Things 3 has separate Mac, iPhone, and iPad apps, and its listed one-time price is the combined cost of all three.

The Pinwork side of the table

Pinwork sells a monthly plan, a yearly plan, and a one-time lifetime purchase, and one purchase covers iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Watch on the same Apple Account. There is no free tier: both subscription plans start with a 7-day free trial handled by the App Store, and lifetime access has no subscription expiration. The plans, trials, and lifetime access guide describes each state.
