- Google has mentioned in its terms and conditions that if you already have a paid subscription of Google One, regardless of which tier, you cannot claim the free trial with a new Pixel phone.

Google recently launched its Pixel 10 Series smartphones with a 12-month free subscription to its Google AI Pro. However, many users are complaining that they are not able to claim this offer after getting their new Pixel device. This problem is more common among users who already have an active subscription. In this guide, we will explore four ways in which you can fix it and get your 12 months of free Google AI Pro and YouTube Premium subscriptions with every new Pixel 10 device.
Unable to Get Free Google AI Pro Plan on Pixel 10
While it is true that Google is offering its top-level AI Pro plan for free, it comes with certain restrictions. Since this is a trial service, you cannot claim if you are an existing paid subscriber. The offer also cannot be claimed on certain types of workspace accounts or if you share your subscription under a family plan. Here’s how you can solve these issues:
Existing Subscriber of Google One
Google has mentioned in its terms and conditions that if you already have a paid subscription of Google One, regardless of which tier, you cannot claim the free trial with a new Pixel phone. While the easiest way to solve this is to create a new Google account, you can also cancel your existing subscription to fix this.
1. Head over to myaccount.google.com and go to Payments and Subscriptions.
2. Scroll down, and click on Google One.
3. Now go to Manage, and select Cancel subscription.
Note that you will have to wait until your existing subscription runs out of validity, to claim the free Google AI Pro plan.
Family Plan Member
If your Google account is a part of a family sharing plan, then you cannot claim the AI Pro offer. You can remove your account from the family group to fix this. Follow these steps:
1. Download and open the Google One app. The process is the same for both Android and iOS devices.
2. Go to Menu > Settings > View Family Group.
3. Tap on the Leave family button.
Once you get the free Google One AI Pro plan, you can create a family group and share it with up to five members.
Workspace Account User
If you have a Workspace Google account, then you cannot claim the free AI Pro plan. This is because the workspace account is managed by your company. The free subscription by Google can only be redeemed on personal Google accounts. Hence, you will have to log in from your personal Google account on your new Pixel 10 phone to claim the offer.
Used Free Trial Already
As per Google’s policy, you can use the free trial only once on a Google account. Hence, if you have ever used the Google One trial in the past, you will not be able to claim the free 12-month Google AI Pro plan. Unfortunately, there is no fix for this. In such cases, you will have to create a new Google account to get the free add-on. Note that this offer is only valid up to 31 October 2026, so you need to complete the process before this date.
