Frequently asked questions
I already have more than 30 contacts — can I still use the free plan?
The free plan caps you at 30 contacts (scans included). You can add up to 30 contacts through any supported method — LINE forwarding, in-app scanning, or manual entry. To go beyond 30, you can watch a short ad to unlock one extra slot.
For example, to reach 35 contacts: the first 30 (scans included) need no ads; each of the next 5 requires one ad view.
Please note:
If you're on the Free plan and have previously exceeded the 30-contact cap and triggered the ad-unlock mechanism, you'll still need to watch an ad to add contacts — even if you've since deleted contacts back below 30.
Can I share contact lists on the Free or Pro plan?
Shared contact lists are currently available only when both parties are on the Max plan.
Can I try Pro or Max for free?
Yes — we offer a 7-day free trial. During the trial, you can use all Pro and Max features, including shared contact lists and team management.
Please note:
1. The contact limit during the trial follows the Free plan (30-contact cap).
2. After the trial ends, if you don't purchase the corresponding paid plan, any data you customized during the trial will be lost. We'll notify you 24 hours before the trial ends about any data that will be affected.
Does Kado work offline?
While offline, you can browse contacts you've already loaded. Other offline updates or actions currently won't be cached locally; when your signal is poor, please avoid scanning, adding, editing, or deleting contacts. When we ship the offline release, Pro and Max users will get it first.
