To find your ID: open the app, go to the Profile tab (bottom right), scroll down to the App section and tap “Account ID, tap to copy”.
The first 7 days are free, with full access to every chapter and every language. After that, the subscription continues at the price shown in the app before you start. If you cancel before the 7 days are over, you pay nothing.
In the settings of your App Store account on iPhone, or in Google Play > Payments and subscriptions on Android. You keep your access until the end of the period already paid.
Open the app, go to the Profile tab (bottom right), scroll down to the App section and tap “Account ID, tap to copy”. If you do not see the tabs yet, finish the first questions of the app: they appear right after.
