How do I subscribe through the Locals app?
You can support communities from the Locals app by purchasing coins via Apple/Google store and giving them to the communities you want.
We recommend subscribing on the website if possible, as your subscription will still be recognized when you access the app. You also don't have to use coins currency to subscribe on the website (though it's still an option), you can pay directly with a credit card. To learn more about subscribing on the web, click here.
Go to the community you want to subscribe to; there will be several ways to initiate.
Scroll through the newsfeed, find a locked post and tap the red “support” button.
Click on Content just above where the newsfeed starts (next to where it says Feed)
Attempt to make a post by selecting the plus sign
Click on a post to try and view/make a comment
Once you initiate this, a new screen will appear where you can choose the amount of time you'd like to subscribe and the associated cost from a drop down list. By default, 6 or 12 months will be selected (depending on the community), but you can usually tap and select a different time frame (if available). If you’ve already purchased the correct amount of coins, tap “Give Coins” to subscribe.
Please note that some communities won't have an annual option, while other communities may only have an annual option
Note: If you haven’t purchased any coins or don’t have enough coins, it will say “Not Enough Coins.” For detailed instructions on how to purchase coins, click here.
