The iOS app: what's the same, what's different

The web app and iOS app share the same account, the same canvases, the same briefs. Anything you create on one shows up on the other in real time. There are a few differences worth knowing.

What's the same on both

• Your account, profile, and subscription
• All canvases and briefs
• The 100+ framework library
• AI canvas generation, refinement, and brief building
• AI credit pool (one shared counter)

What's different

• Subscription origin: if you subscribed in the iOS App Store, web shows your tier but the Manage subscription button is hidden — you have to manage from your iPhone. Conversely, if you subscribed via web (Stripe), you can manage from web but iOS can't change the subscription either.
• Web checkout is blocked while an iOS subscription is active. Trying to subscribe via web when you already have an active iOS sub returns a polite "already subscribed via iOS" notice.
• Free interactive tools (/tools/[slug]) exist only on web. They're meant as a no-sign-up entry point.
• Blog, Academy, Help center are web-only.
• iOS has system widgets and shortcuts the web app can't offer.

Switching between them

Sign in with the same Google / Apple / email account on both. Subscription, canvases, briefs, settings, and avatar all sync. Profile changes propagate within seconds.

Which one should I use?

• Long thinking sessions, brief writing, sharing with stakeholders → web (bigger canvas area, easier to share / PDF / copy)
• Quick captures, on-the-go reading, one-handed reflection → iOS
• You'll naturally use both — the apps are designed as one product across two surfaces
