Support that respects your time.

Yes. Access to Vella’s app content and features requires a paid Premium subscription or an active trial. If the store shows that you are eligible, it may offer a one-month trial; trial eligibility, the post-trial renewal price, and the billing period are shown before you confirm.

Subscriptions are managed by Apple or Google. Open Vella Settings and choose Manage subscription, or use the subscriptions section of your App Store or Google Play account. When your current trial or paid period ends, app content and features lock; you can still manage or delete your account and data, restore purchases, and manage the subscription. Deleting the app does not cancel a subscription.

Yes. Sign in with the Vella account you used before, make sure the device is using the same store account, then choose Restore purchases on the Premium screen.

AI may expand search intent, draft reflection prompts, and assist with moderation of public content. Displayed Scripture always comes from an approved edition stored in Vella’s corpus and is never written or translated by AI. Reflection prompts are commentary and may be wrong.

Notifications remain off until you explicitly enable them. You can choose a daily local time and either Scripture-and-prayer or quiet encouragement, then change or disable the reminder in Vella at any time. Supported community activity may also be delivered while notifications are enabled. Device permission can always be revoked in system settings.

Notes remain private to your account. They are not posted to Faith Feed unless you deliberately create a separate public post.
