Free also includes unlimited projects and tasks, CSV import from Clockify, Toggl and Harvest, and CSV export. Free is not a trial. It doesn't expire.

## What counts as an active client

Free includes 2 active clients. An inactive client doesn't count, and keeps all its history. You can still view and export it, and send or mark its invoices paid, but not log new time. When you finish with a client, make it inactive to make room.

If you try to add a third active client on Free, Cruxy offers Pro instead.

## The emailed invoice limit

Free includes 3 emailed invoices or reminders a month, renewing on the 1st (in your time zone). The email sheet shows how many you have left. **Sharing and downloading invoices stay free and unlimited**, so you can always send a PDF yourself.

## Upgrade to Pro

Tap **Upgrade** when Cruxy offers it, or open **Settings > Profile** and tap **Go Pro**. See [Billing](https://cruxy.io/support/billing/) for how payment and cancelling work.

## If Pro ends

Your data stays. When Pro ends:
- If you have more than 2 active clients, Cruxy asks you to choose 2 to keep active. The rest become inactive and read-only.
- Emailing invoices is limited to 3 a month. Sharing and downloading are still free.
- Budgets keep what's set but can't be changed. Retainers pause.
- PDFs show the small Cruxy credit again.


Upgrade again at any time and the limits lift.
