If I upgrade from Pro to Max, does the price difference get adjusted?

Hi, this is the operator. To cut to the chase, when you upgrade from Pro to Max, you won't be charged the full Max price. Instead, your charges will be prorated within your current billing cycle. According to the official guide, upgrading from Pro to Max applies immediately, and your charges for this billing cycle are adjusted based on the remaining time in your cycle. Since the value of your unused Pro time is reflected in this billing, if you've been using the service for about ten days, you'll likely be charged a reduced amount based on the remaining days. However, the exact daily calculation formula and decimal point handling aren't specified in the official docs, so there's some uncertainty on the precise numbers. There are two exceptions: 1. If you're upgrading from an annual Pro plan to Max, and your remaining annual balance is higher than the Max price, the difference is credited to your account and used toward your next billing cycle. 2. If you're paying through Google Play, the process works differently. In that case, instead of charging you the full Max price, your remaining Pro credit is converted into additional days of Max plan usage. In summary, for the typical case—if you're paying for a monthly Pro subscription directly through the web or app—the upgrade takes effect immediately and this month's charge is adjusted based on your remaining time. Before confirming, you can preview the exact charge on the payment screen before clicking the upgrade button, so take a look at the amount first.
