Using Red Candle offline
How long the app works without internet, and what "Connect to the internet to keep going" means.
Red Candle checks your subscription when it opens, when you sign in and every 6 hours. With a paid subscription or complimentary access without an end date, the app works offline for up to 14 days after the last successful check.
Complimentary access with an end date
Connect to the internet when you open the app and during periodic checks. If the app cannot verify access, you can still read and export your journal. When the grant ends, click Renew to choose a paid plan and resume editing.
After 14 days offline
Your journal becomes read-only with "Connect to the internet to keep going". It unlocks on its own as soon as this computer is back online ā no need to sign in again.
Good to know
- Your trades, screenshots and candles are always on this computer, online or not.
- Turning the computer's clock back doesn't extend the 14 days.
- A local AI provider (Ollama, LM Studio) works offline too; cloud providers need the internet.
