By the Operator Standard Review editorial team · Last updated: · How we review

We work on The Operator Standard, another app from the same publisher, 44Seven Media, so weigh our view accordingly. This page only explains what the 75 Hard app costs; every price comes from the App Store, Google Play and andyfrisella.com, checked November 2, 2026.

Is the 75 Hard app free?

No. The 75 Hard app is free to download, but its US App Store listing says it requires a subscription: $4.99 a month or $39.99 a year. Google Play lists the same $4.99 to $39.99 range. The 75 HARD program itself is free; andyfrisella.com calls it a free mental toughness program.

How much does the 75 Hard app cost for the full 75 days?

On the monthly plan, 75 days spans three billing months, so about $14.97 if you cancel right after finishing. The annual plan is $39.99 up front. Monthly is cheaper for one attempt; annual only wins if you restart several times, run it again later in the year, or continue into the Live Hard program.

Scenario Monthly ($4.99) Annual ($39.99)
One clean 75-day run about $14.97 (3 months) $39.99
One restart, about 5 months total about $24.95 $39.99
Restarts across most of a year up to about $59.88 $39.99

These are our own arithmetic from the listed prices, before any tax. Cancel at least 24 hours before renewal through Apple or Google if you don't want another month.

Why do people say the 75 Hard app used to be free?

Many longtime users remember paying once. Recent App Store reviewers describe buying the app years ago for around $5, then returning to find a monthly or annual subscription required. Of the 100 most recent written US App Store reviews we read on November 2, 2026, 80 were one or two stars, mostly about this change.

The sample covered April 23, 2025 to October 27, 2026: 15 reviews were four or five stars, 5 were three stars and 80 were one or two stars. Written reviews skew negative compared with star-only ratings, which is why the overall App Store average is still 4.5. Some search results and third-party sites still show an old one-time price; the live listings now show subscriptions only.

What do you get if you pay for the 75 Hard app?

The App Store listing describes daily progress tracking, custom reminders, progress pictures, notes for each day, a history of every attempt, sharing to your Instagram Story and a path into the Live Hard program. Recent versions added offline use, a light theme, adjusting your current day and choosing when to restart.

The app has no friends or group feature listed. If you're doing 75 HARD with other people, see our guide to the best 75 Hard app with friends. If you're finishing and want what comes next, read about the Live Hard program.

How can you track 75 Hard for free?

You don't need any app: the rules fit on a printed checklist or your phone's notes, and a photo album covers progress pictures. Habitica is free and lets you set the five tasks as dailies with friends. Squad75 and Unbroken are free to download, but their group and full-tracking features need a paid Pro plan.

Free or cheap option Cost Catch
Paper checklist or notes app Free No reminders or history unless you set them up
Habitica Free; optional $4.99/mo You build the tasks yourself; not 75 HARD-specific
Squad75 Free download; Pro $7.99/mo after a 7-day trial Squads of up to 25 need Pro; iPhone only
Unbroken Free download; Pro $5.99/mo Creating squads needs Pro; default list has one workout, not two
75 Hard (official) $4.99/mo or $39.99/yr No friends feature

Is the 75 Hard app worth paying for?

For one attempt, $4.99 a month is a small cost if reminders, a photo log and an attempt history help you finish. If you only need to check five boxes, a free checklist does the job. The value is in following the program exactly; the app is one tool for that.

If you're past 75 HARD and want daily accountability on your own goals, The Operator Standard, where we work, is the same publisher's ongoing app, at $49.99 a month in the App Store. It is a different product, not a 75 HARD tracker; our 75 Hard comparison explains the difference.
