Subscribed to Helperbird Pro but features still show as locked? Here's how to fix it.


Step 1: Check Your Login

Open Helperbird and scroll to the bottom. Click Settings to open the settings page. Look for your subscription status - it should show "Pro" if you're logged in correctly.

If it shows "Free," you need to log in with your Pro account.


Step 2: Log In With Your Email

In Helperbird Settings, look for the login section. Enter the email address you used when you subscribed to Helperbird Pro. Click sign in and check your email for a login link.

Make sure you're using the exact same email that's associated with your subscription.


Step 3: Use Your Subscription Key

If email login isn't working, try using your subscription key instead.

Your subscription key was sent to you in your welcome email when you subscribed. Look for an email from Helperbird with "subscription" or "welcome" in the subject.

Enter the key in the subscription key field in Helperbird Settings.


Step 4: Enable Browser Sync

Helperbird's email login requires browser sync to be enabled.

Chrome: Go to Settings > You and Google > Turn on sync.

Edge: Go to Settings > Profiles > Sync > Turn on sync.

After enabling sync, try logging in again.


Step 5: Check Your Subscription Status

Visit the Helperbird subscription portal to check if your subscription is active.

Enter your email and log in to see your subscription status. If it shows as expired or cancelled, you'll need to renew.


Step 6: Clear and Re-enter

Sometimes the login gets stuck. Try this:

  1. Open Helperbird Settings
  2. Clear any existing subscription key
  3. Log out if you're logged in
  4. Close the settings tab
  5. Reopen Helperbird and try logging in fresh

Step 7: Try a Different Browser

If you have Helperbird installed on multiple browsers, try logging in on a different one. If it works there, the issue is specific to the original browser.


Step 8: Request Your Key

Can't find your subscription key? Email us at support@helperbird.com with the email address you used to subscribe, and we'll send you your key.

A truly great extension! We installed this on all of our 200 Chromebooks across the 3 special schools i work in and it has greatly helped our students use technology to learn. It not only helps our dyslexic learners, but also our autistic and ADHD students by helping remove distractions and making the web a more accessible place. Support is fast and efficient, and updates are very regular with new features constantly being added!

Let me tell you, I didn't know how badly I needed this until I got it. It was much like when I got glasses, I had just assumed that was how everyone saw the world...then it wasn't. Thank you Helperbird for the efforts you put forth in this lovely extension for everyone to use. The fact that you can use so much on the free just goes to show that this is something to help aid people not just some money grab. However with the pricing it still couldn't be a money grab. Thank you all again for the efforts you put forth so others can enjoy the internet more fully.

Simplemente increíble. Nunca he tenido una extensión con tantísimas opciones juntas. Como profesor, siempre la recomiendo a las familias de estudiantes con dificultades para mantener la atención, a la hora de leer, y otras necesidades específicas, aunque pienso que puede ser de uso para cualquiera. ¡Un 10!
