What ReelShort charges
Its listing names two kinds of purchase:
| Purchase | Price as listed | How it works |
|---|---|---|
| “Subscription” | $19.99 | The listing says it is valid for 7 days, lets you watch every series while active and renews automatically |
| “One-time Purchase” | $4.99 to $29.99 | Coin packs that unlock episodes one at a time |
What does ReelShort cost over a month?
A year has 52 weeks, so an average month has 52 ÷ 12 ≈ 4.33 of them. Kept running, the $19.99 weekly subscription costs:
| Period | Cost | Sum |
|---|---|---|
| 4 weeks | $79.96 | 4 × $19.99 |
| An average month | $86.62 | 52 × $19.99 ÷ 12 |
| A year | $1,039.48 | 52 × $19.99 |
Any introductory or country price your store shows replaces these figures.
Is the subscription cheaper than coins?
Only if you watch a lot. Coins unlock one episode at a time and a whole series can take several packs, so someone who binges a few series a week usually spends less on the subscription. Someone who follows one show now and then may spend less on a single coin pack. ReelShort also hands out reward coins for daily check-ins and for watching ads, according to its replies on Google Play.
How do I stop paying for ReelShort?
Cancel in the store you subscribed through, at least 24 hours before the next renewal, as its listing asks: Settings › your name › Subscriptions on an iPhone, or the Google Play Store app › Payments & subscriptions on Android. Uninstalling the app does not cancel.
How ReelShort compares with other apps
Weekly plans are the norm: 19 of the 27 apps in our pricing index name one, and the median priciest weekly plan is $19.99, the same as ReelShort’s. 9 apps name a monthly plan, at a median of $39.99. The cheapest weekly plans listed are $5.99 (NetShort and GoodShort).
