All,

First, this is NOT a scam. Yesterday afternoon at around 2PM PDT Aira did 
make the announcement you saw.

Second, if you wish to cancel your plan, even the $29 intro plan, of course 
you can use the Aira for free 5-ninute service. Many calls actually are 
under five minutes which is why this new option was instituted. I would 
say, however, that most all of us do find times our needs go beyond five 
minutes. I would urge not canceling for those times.

The fo

Aira is free for short calls under 5 minutes to all, was: Ohio-Talk The day we've been waiting for is finally here.

2019-08-15 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
It states very clearly in the message:

The best way to learn is to Use the Aira app and connect with an agent-you can 
aske all of your questions and it won't cost you a thing.
If you are not on a plan, that's great! You can now make short calls for free 
to Aira agents every day and everywhere.
You're no longer limited to using Aira in just access locations or with access 
offers (those are still good to use if you want to do something that will take 
more time, like explore a museum.

I think I will cancel my $29/month subscription since most of my calls are 
under 5 minutes and in fact I often didn't even use my 30 minutes since I 
usually have sighted help around at all times, after all, I pay several 
employees to work for me so they might as well earn their keep đŸ¤¯

Take care and enjoy Aira, the quality of the help you get is outstanding, this 
will essentially solve the issue of captchas on the web, those times when your 
screenreader decides to take a hike and you may need a few minutes of help to 
see what's going on, Aira agents can direct you to move your phone a bit this 
way and a bit that way to take a great picture and then snap the picture for 
you so you don't have to risk moving the phone when you tap the button etc. 
It's a great service.

Sieghard

So if I cancel my subscription... because I hardly use minutes... or if I do 
they are short calls... can I still use aira for free?

The day we've been waiting for is finally here.

 

Aira is free everywhere and at any time.

 

Let that sink in For a moment!

 

Aira. Is. Free.

 

Starting today, you can make short calls to Aira agents for free, everyday.
So whenever you are doing those small daily tasks where a little information
can save a lot of time, we've got you covered.

 

We know, we can't hardly believe it ourselves!

 

There is no catch. So long as the call is relatively quick (5 minutes), its
free. Just make sure you have the latest version of the app on your phone.
As this is the early version of the service, we ask for some patience if you
come across any hiccups, along the way, or if we end up making some minor
tweaks further down the line. We are so excited to get this out into the
world that we just couldn't wait any longer! The important thing is to
remember that Aira is free now and will always be free.

 

Want to learn more?

 

The best way to learn is to Use the Aira app and connect with an agent-you
can aske all of your questions and it won't cost you a thing. If you are not
on a plan, that's great! You can now make short calls for free to Aira
agents every day and everywhere. You're no longer limited to using Aira in
just access locations or with access offers (those are still good to use if
you want to do something that will take more time, like explore a museum.

 

If you are on a plan

 

That's great too! You can use your daily free short calls to help make your
plan minutes stretch further. As the first (5 minutes) are free.

 

Connect with an agent now and start saving time. You have nothing to lose -
literally!
