Is there a PostHog mobile app without a subscription?

Yes. PocketHog is a native iOS app for PostHog that costs $4.99 one-time. No monthly subscription, no Pro tier, no feature gates. Every feature is available to every user, including home screen widgets, multi-project monitoring, and conversion tracking.

How much does PocketHog cost?

PocketHog costs $4.99 as a one-time purchase on the App Store. There is no subscription.

Why does PocketHog use one-time pricing instead of a subscription?

PocketHog is a utility app that connects directly to your PostHog API. It doesn't run servers or backend infrastructure on your behalf, so there's no ongoing cost to pass on to you. One-time pricing means you own the app and get all future updates included.

PostHog Mobile App with No Subscription

PocketHog costs $4.99. Once. That's it.

No monthly subscription, no annual plan, no "Pro" tier that locks the good features behind a paywall. You buy it, you own it, every feature works.

Why One-Time Pricing

PocketHog connects directly to PostHog's API using your Personal API key. Your data goes from PostHog's servers to your phone — PocketHog doesn't run a backend, doesn't proxy your requests, doesn't store your data on any intermediary server.

No backend means no ongoing server costs. And no ongoing costs means no reason to charge you every month.

Compare this to apps that charge monthly subscriptions for what amounts to an API wrapper. If the app is just reading from an API you already pay for, why should there be a recurring fee?

What $4.99 Gets You

Everything. There's no tier system. Every PocketHog user gets:

Home screen widgets — small and medium sizes showing live visitor counts, conversion metrics, and sparkline trends
Multi-project monitoring — all your PostHog projects in a single scrollable feed
Conversion tracking — pick any PostHog event as a secondary metric per project
Sparkline trend charts — see how metrics are moving at a glance
Period-over-period deltas — weekly and monthly comparisons
Chart annotations — deployment markers overlaid on trends
PostHog Max AI deep links — jump to AI analysis from any metric
Project reordering and custom names — organize your dashboard your way
US Cloud, EU Cloud, and self-hosted support
Test account filtering
All future updates — included, forever

The Subscription Fatigue Problem

Developer tools love subscriptions. It's understandable — recurring revenue is predictable. But from the buyer's side, it's death by a thousand cuts. You're already paying for PostHog (or using the free tier). You're paying for your Apple Developer account. You're paying for hosting, domains, maybe a CI service.

Adding another $5–10/month for a mobile dashboard app? That's the kind of thing you sign up for, use for two weeks, forget to cancel, and find on your credit card statement six months later.

PocketHog avoids this entirely. One purchase, done. Use it every day or once a month — it costs the same.

No Feature Gates

Some apps offer a free tier with limited functionality and then charge for "Pro" or "Premium" features. This creates a frustrating experience: you start using the app, get invested, then hit a wall when you try to use the feature you actually need.

PocketHog has no free tier and no Pro tier. There's one version. It does everything. $4.99 one-time purchase on the App Store.

Who This Is For

PocketHog is built for indie developers, solo founders, and small teams who:

Want a quick pulse check on their PostHog metrics without opening a laptop
Manage multiple PostHog projects and want to see all of them in one place
Prefer home screen widgets over opening yet another app
Are tired of subscription pricing for simple utility apps
