See the whole picture.

Realtime Feed puts bookings, releases and bond changes from every county we cover onto one live screen, filtered by county, bond range, charge keyword, age or sex — with an optional chime and desktop alert when something matches, a compact mode built for watching all day, a full-screen desk mode for a wall monitor, and CSV export. Update Now re-checks any county's roster the moment you ask, with live progress, instead of waiting for the next scheduled sweep (one a day). Global Search looks across every covered county's roster at once — no more checking counties one by one. Face Search takes a photo you snap or choose and shows which booking photos it matches, across every county's roster and the released archive; the photo is processed on our own servers and never kept. Released Archive opens the full history of released bookings (free accounts see only the last 3 days). Future Inmate Watch emails you when a name you're watching appears on any roster you choose. Inmate Comments lets you post on any inmate's page — anyone can read comments, but only premium accounts can write them. Every one of these comes with both the pass and the subscription.

Every county is re-read on a rotation of roughly an hour. Update Now runs that read for one county the moment you ask, shows its progress, and puts the new numbers on the page as soon as it finishes. Each premium member gets two a day, at least four hours apart; a county updated in the last few minutes is already current, so asking again does not use yours.

A record appears the moment CellHive sees it — that is the point of the feed, you are not sitting there refreshing county websites yourself. But counties publish on their own schedule and we re-check each one on a rotation, so expect roughly 20 to 100 minutes between somebody being booked and the record appearing anywhere public.

Rather than hide that, the feed shows both times on every row — when the booking happened and when we saw it — flags any county that has stopped reporting, and lets you force a re-check when you cannot wait.

Both unlock the same features. The pass is a single payment for 3 months and simply runs out — no auto-renew, nothing to cancel. The subscription renews automatically every 6 months at a discounted rate and can be canceled any time from your profile.

The subscription price is discounted (currently about 25% under the one-time rate) because you're staying subscribed. If you cancel during a paid period, that period is re-priced at the regular one-time rate: your premium end date moves earlier by the discount's worth of time, and no further payments are taken. You always keep the time you've effectively paid for at the regular rate. One-time passes can't be canceled — they just run their course.

Checkout happens on the payment provider's own secure page (Stripe / PayPal / Google Pay) — CellHive never sees or stores your card details. Your account upgrades the moment the payment is confirmed, and every receipt is listed on your profile. Purchases are made here on the website only, not inside the Android app.
