can i use mobile authentication in appwrite cloud free plan?

TL;DR
The user is asking if they can use mobile authentication in the Appwrite Cloud free plan. The response suggests that there is no clear information about the pricing of OTPs in all plans, but in the current public beta, all usage is free. So, the user should be able to use mobile authentication in the free plan without any limitation.

Right now, Appwrite Cloud is in public beta which means all usage is free under the fair use policy.

Pricing was released this week, and will take some time to come into force. Keeping that in mind, even in the Free plan, I doubt there will be a restriction where you can't use mobile authentication

Keep in mind that I'm not a core member, so I might be wrong. This is just what I think based on my current knowledge.

apppwrite team should write it clearly about otp pricing in all plan

Then you shouldn't be worried as you're out of the free tier.

but after that also there is not any price declared for otp issue

What's not clear? With the way Appwrite is set up right now, an OTP is sent to a user's mobile only when calling the account.createPhoneVerification endpoint.

A user should really hit this endpoint only once for mobile number verification in their lifecycle.

So if free plan says 75K monthly active users, it should include the appropriate number of OTPs sent for these users as well.

yeah I mean keep in mind that these things are subject to change at the discretion of Appwrite. But what I explained is the most likely way they will allocate OTP usage

Just my opinion
