Good to know
- The trial ends 14 days after you tap Create account, at the same time of day, not at midnight. Sign up at 9 am on 27 October, and your account pauses at 9 am on 10 November.
- If the trial ends before you subscribe, your account pauses. You can still open everything, but most changes are refused, often with “Your trial has ended — subscribe to make changes.” You can still mark invoices and lessons as paid.
- The trial is on the Solo plan: 1 teacher, unlimited students and a 5 GB resource library. Its video classroom holds 2 people (you and one student), with 20 video hours a month.
Questions
Do I need to cancel before the trial ends?
No. lessonu has no card for you, so nothing is charged.
If you don't subscribe, your account pauses. Your data is kept for at least 90 days.
To see your end date, open Billing. It says “Your trial ends” and the date.

Type your Email and Password.
Tap Sign in.
Seeing “Email verified — sign in to continue.”? You're confirmed, so sign in.

Not confirmed yet? Sign-in says “Invalid email or password” until you do.
To get a new link, tap Resend email on the Check your inbox. page.
The form asks for a School name. How do I go back?

This happens after Start a school, or from the pricing page with a plan other than Solo picked.
Teach on your own? Don't tap Create school.
Tap Back to account type.
