Paywall audit · October 2026 · Prepared by Adapty

Every ad makes a promise.
Your paywall should keep it.

“One wrong note…”, “Check out this app!”, “Learning piano is not easy”: each of your ads promises something different. Then everyone lands on the same trial screen. Here are five changes, built from the ads you already run and the answers your onboarding already collects.

What this is

We watched your ads, took your quiz, and rebuilt the sheet where the trial gets decided.

Adapty powers subscriptions for 30,000+ apps, so we see what moves conversion across the market. We went through your onboarding from “Play the music you love” to the plan picker, read your App Store page, flowkey.com and your help centre, and grouped the ads you ran from late July to late October.

Every ad makes one clear promise. Your quiz then asks five good questions. After that, everyone gets the same “How Your Free Trial Works”. The plans are one more tap away, and your 4.7 stars, 15 million downloads and Yamaha partnership appear nowhere on either screen.

How This Audit Works

  • Your adsEvery creative from late July to late October, grouped by what it promises
  • Your quizPlayed before, goals, music, piano, others at home: each answer used
  • Your paywallThe same sheet, plans and prices, now saying the right thing to each person

5 ideas, then up to +20% conversion to trial

We did not redesign your paywall

Everything you see in the prototype is yours:

  • The navy sheet and the orange grabber
  • Today / Day 5 / Day 7
  • Individual Plan / Family Plan
  • White plan cards with the “7-DAY FREE TRIAL” ribbon
  • “Start 7-Day Free Trial” at $149.99 a year

You may have tested some of this

We are working from the outside, so we cannot see your experiment history. If you have already run one of these, tell us and we will go deeper on the rest.

Every price, rating and quote comes from your App Store page, flowkey.com or your help centre. Where something is not published, such as the price behind your 65% ad, we left the slot empty.

Your ads

Six promises in your ads. One paywall behind all of them.

Your ads, laid out like your song library. Each row is one promise. The last tile shows the paywall that keeps it: tap it to open that version on the phone.

1

Send the ad along with the install

Your attribution already knows the Meta campaign and ad set behind each install. Adapty turns them into an audience, so the right paywall is picked before the first screen loads. Name ad sets by promise, not by date.

2

Give the 65% ad its own paywall

The Spanish bus-stop videos say Ahórrate un 65% en un año and Oferta limitada. People who tap them should land on that offer, not on the full-price trial. It is not in the prototype because the store does not publish that price.

3

New ad, new paywall, same day

Learning piano is not easy went from English to Italian and French in six weeks. In Flow Builder, the paywall that answers it is one headline and one image, translated together with the ad.

Together, the five changes finish what your ads start. The paywall repeats the promise they tapped, starts the trial on their first course, shows your proof at the moment they decide, opens on Family for households that asked for it, and offers a cheaper plan to people who close it.

Impact ranges are Adapty’s expected effect from teardowns and A/B tests across subscription apps — not measured lift for flowkey. Prices are the US prices from flowkey’s help centre (Premium $24.99 / month or $149.99 / year with a 7-day trial; Family $37.49 / $224.99; Classic $99.99 / year); the per-month figures are those prices divided by twelve, rounded down as your own paywall does. 4.7 stars and 66K ratings from the US App Store; “15 Million downloads” and “In partnership with Yamaha” from your App Store screenshots; the 14-day money-back guarantee and the Classic plan from your help centre. Quotes from flowkey.com and US App Store reviews, as published. Ad groups and impressions from public ad intelligence, 27 July – 24 October 2026 (75% US, 97% Meta), not from your ad account. The three ad frames, their captions and their ad copy are from the Meta Ad Library (US), 26 October 2026. “Today” is rebuilt from your iOS paywall; the onboarding questions are yours. German and French screens are our translation.
