Restore purchases on Wispr Flow for iOS

Last updated: May 15, 2026

Available on: iOS

If tapping "Restore Purchases" in Wispr Flow shows an error, or the restore seemed to work but your subscription didn't activate, this guide explains what each alert means and how to fix it. Most issues resolve in under 2 minutes.

Quick checks

  • Are you signed into the right Apple ID? Open iOS Settings, tap your name at the top, and confirm the Apple ID matches the one you used to subscribe.

  • Is Wispr Flow up to date? Open the App Store, tap your profile icon, and check for updates.

  • Did you subscribe through the App Store? Restore Purchases only works for App Store subscriptions. If you subscribed via the Wispr Flow website or desktop app, manage your plan there — this guide won't apply.

  • Does your internet connection work? Restore Purchases needs to reach Apple's servers. Load a webpage to confirm — if it fails, the problem is your connection, not Flow.

How to restore purchases

Free or trial users

Follow these steps to restore an active App Store subscription:

  1. Open Wispr Flow on your iPhone.

  2. Open the in-app paywall via Settings → "Upgrade to Pro", or via Account → Manage Plan → "Explore Plan".

  3. Tap "Restore Purchases" at the bottom of the paywall.

  4. Wait for the result. If successful, a "Subscription Restored" alert appears — tap OK and your access is active. If not, a "No Subscription Found" alert appears (see the next section).

Paid users

On the Plan screen, "Explore Plan" opens the App Store subscription page rather than the in-app paywall, so Restore Purchases isn't directly reachable. To retry a restore:

  1. Sign out of Wispr Flow, then sign back in.

  2. Open the paywall via Settings → "Upgrade to Pro".

  3. Tap "Restore Purchases" before paying again.

If that doesn't work, contact support — don't purchase a second subscription.

Warning: If you're already a paid subscriber, don't tap "Upgrade to Pro" again — you may be charged for a second subscription. Use Restore Purchases or contact support first.

Understanding the alerts

After tapping Restore Purchases, Wispr Flow checks your subscription status and shows one of the following alerts. Each has an "OK" button to dismiss, after which you can tap Restore Purchases again to retry.

"Subscription Restored" (success)

Your subscription was found and reactivated. Tap "OK" — the paywall closes and your access is restored.

"No Subscription Found"

The alert reads: "We couldn't find an active subscription to restore. If you believe this is an error, please contact support."

This usually means one of two things:

  • You're signed into a different Apple ID than the one you originally subscribed with.

  • Your subscription has lapsed or been cancelled.

To fix it:

  1. Confirm the correct Apple ID is signed in: open iOS Settings and tap your name at the top.

  2. Check your subscription status in iOS Settings → your name → Subscriptions. If Wispr Flow isn't listed as active, your subscription has lapsed.

  3. Tap Restore Purchases again once the correct Apple ID is active.

If you believe you have an active subscription but this alert keeps appearing, contact support with your Apple ID email address.

FAQs

Can I transfer my subscription to a different Wispr Flow account?

App Store subscriptions are permanently linked to the Apple ID and Wispr Flow account they were first activated with. Sign in with the original account to use your subscription, or contact support for help identifying it.

I saw an alert from a previous restore attempt — is it still relevant?

Any alert you see reflects your most recent restore attempt. If you're unsure, dismiss it, update Wispr Flow if an update is available, and tap Restore Purchases again.

My trial ended — how do I restore?

When your trial expires, Wispr Flow shows the Trial Ended paywall, which includes a "Restore Purchases" button. Tap it if you already have an active subscription.

Is Restore Purchases available on Mac or other platforms?

Restore Purchases applies to iOS only. Subscription management on other platforms works differently.

Still need help?

Reach out to support if:

  • You've tried the steps above and the restore still fails.

  • Your subscription was restored successfully but Pro features aren't unlocked.

  • You were charged twice or believe you have an active subscription that isn't being detected.
