How many custom phones can I keep?

Free lets you keep 1 custom phone, Plus 10, Premium 100 and Ultra 1,000. This counts your own saved designs in Custom across all bases; received Gifts do not count. It is a saved-design limit and does not reset each month. If you already have more than your plan allows, they stay saved. You can still edit or delete them, subject to their base requirement. Make room or upgrade before adding another custom phone.

Can I move my paid allowance to another iPhone?

A paid Connect allowance belongs to one KROMA number. Restore that same number on the new iPhone, then restore or sync your purchases. Creating a new number does not move the allowance. An older purchase that has not been linked yet belongs to the first KROMA number that successfully syncs it.
