Rewards

What it is

Rewards hand a free user a stretch of Pro time for logging their training. The paid layer opens on its own, rather than behind a trial you have to start. Most apps ask you to begin a trial before you can see what you would be buying. Kinoku runs it the other way around, and the training you were doing anyway is what opens the door.

What opens while a reward runs

Reward time follows the same Pro line as a paid plan. While the window is open you can use the deeper run analysis, readiness, the training patterns engine, Quick Log, and the Pro Analytics views.

Say you have been logging steadily and a reward lands on a Thursday. For as long as that window runs, up to six tabs of Pro Analytics open on your own sessions instead of a sample account. You get to find out whether the strength standards and the plateau view tell you anything you did not already know. When the window closes the extra views close with it. Every workout, routine, and record you logged inside it stays exactly where it was.

Why it works this way

The first reason is that a trial shows you someone else’s data. A locked feature only means something against your own months of training, so a reward opens the paid views on the history you already have.

The second reason is that the trigger is training itself. A reward comes from logging often, not from watching ads, sharing contacts, or inviting friends. No card is involved at any point.

The third reason is that the free tier does not shrink to make room. Logging, routines, history, and runs stay uncapped whether or not a window is open. A reward adds depth for a while, then takes nothing away after.

Who gets a reward, and for how long

Rewards go to free accounts only. A paying subscriber already has that access, so Pro shows no grants and no next-reward schedule. The time is also temporary by design, which makes a reward a real look at the paid layer rather than a way to hold on to it.

The free layer

Rewards cost nothing and ask for nothing in return. The app says when a window opens and when it ends, and a workout still saves normally throughout. How often rewards land can change as we tune what triggers them. The part that stays fixed is simpler: the free app is complete before the window opens and complete after it shuts.
