Intentime Terms of Use
Launch review draft · Last updated July 14, 2026
These Terms of Use (“Terms”) govern your use of the Intentime iPhone application. “Operator” means the legal person or entity that will be identified before release. By downloading or using Intentime, you agree to these Terms and the applicable App Store license terms. If you do not agree, do not use the app.
1. Eligibility and legal capacity
You may use Intentime only if you can lawfully agree to these Terms and use the app in your location. [Confirm before release: minimum age and parental-consent rules.] If you use a device managed by another person or organization, you are responsible for having authority to install, authorize, and use Intentime on that device.
2. The service
Intentime is a personal self-management tool. It lets you select apps, app categories, or websites in Apple’s system picker; pause access with Screen Time Shield; choose a purpose and a 3, 5, 10, or 15 minute active-use budget; temporarily open one target; record an outcome; and review local Today and Promise Gap reports.
Intentime is not medical care, mental-health or addiction treatment, emergency or safety service, legal advice, employee management, parental monitoring, or a guarantee of reduced device use.
3. Free and Pro functionality
The free app includes target selection, Shield, purpose and budget selection, single-target temporary access, re-protection, Emergency Access, recovery, Today, and the basic 7-day report. Intentime Pro adds 30-day and 90-day Promise Gap patterns and custom purpose text from 1 to 120 characters. Pro does not sell Apple’s Screen Time API, the number of protected targets, core shielding, re-protection, or Emergency Access.
4. License and App Store terms
Subject to these Terms and the applicable App Store terms, you receive a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable license to use Intentime on Apple-branded products you own or control as permitted by Apple’s usage rules.
[Confirm before release: choose Apple’s Standard EULA or submit a Custom EULA and reconcile it with these Terms.] Unless a Custom EULA is validly presented for the app, Apple’s Standard EULA applies to the licensed application. Apple is not responsible for Intentime maintenance or support beyond obligations that cannot be excluded by law or the applicable EULA.
5. Apple permissions and system dependencies
The core protection flow depends on Family Controls / Screen Time Individual Authorization, Managed Settings, Device Activity, supported iOS versions, device configuration, Apple entitlement approval, and operating-system scheduling. You choose and may withdraw authorization in Apple’s system interfaces. StoreKit, local notifications, and Live Activities are also governed by Apple systems and settings.
6. Active-use budget and timing limits
A selected 3, 5, 10, or 15 minute value is an active-use budget, not a precise wall-clock countdown. Apple controls Device Activity callbacks and background execution. Re-protection may occur earlier or later, and an approximately 15-minute system safety boundary may close access when use stops or callbacks are delayed. Intentime does not guarantee second-level accuracy, uninterrupted Shield, or continuous background updates.
On iOS 26.5 or later, the app may use Apple’s direct app-opening path. On lower supported versions, you may need to tap an optional local notification or open Intentime manually. Notifications may be delayed or suppressed by permissions, Focus, Scheduled Summary, lock state, or system policy.
7. Live Activity limits
A Live Activity does not display an app name, purpose, or Screen Time token. Before Device Activity evidence exists, it shows only a static budget; later it may show a confirmed lower bound such as “at least N minutes used.” On iOS 17 or later, you refresh local status from the Lock Screen or expanded Dynamic Island. Automatic server-powered real-time updates are not a feature. Shield and re-protection are designed to continue independently if a Live Activity is unavailable.
8. Safety and Emergency Access
Do not protect an app that you may need immediately for phone calls, authentication, security, medical needs, payments, transportation, work-critical duties, or emergency communication. You are responsible for your selections and for maintaining other ways to reach essential functions.
Emergency Access removes Intentime protection and monitoring. You must explicitly resume protection in Settings afterward. It is a recovery control, not an emergency service, and Intentime cannot guarantee access to or operation of any third-party app.
9. Your responsibilities and prohibited conduct
- Use Intentime only on a device and Apple Account you are authorized to control.
- Do not use it to monitor, restrict, or access another person’s device or information without lawful authority and consent.
- Do not reverse engineer, bypass security, interfere with extensions or StoreKit verification, introduce malicious code, or use the app unlawfully, except where applicable law expressly permits.
- Do not misrepresent app output as exact usage measurement, medical advice, or evidence about another person.
10. User-entered purposes and feedback
Pro users may write a local custom purpose. You remain responsible for that text and should not enter sensitive, unlawful, infringing, or harmful content. Intentime does not upload custom purposes in the current build. If you voluntarily send feedback or support content, the Operator may use it to respond and improve the product, subject to the Privacy Policy and applicable law.
11. Intentime Pro subscriptions
Monthly and annual Intentime Pro plans are auto-renewable subscriptions processed by Apple. The purchase screen’s localized price, period, and offer terms control. Subscriptions renew under Apple’s rules until canceled in Apple Account settings. Deleting Intentime or resetting local data does not cancel a subscription. See the Intentime Pro Subscription Terms.
12. Local data and privacy
Intentime stores personal sessions and usage-habit evidence on your device and has no Intentime user backend in the current build. Local reset or deletion can be irreversible and does not affect Apple purchase records. See the Intentime Privacy Policy.
13. Product changes and availability
The Operator may improve, modify, suspend, or discontinue features for security, legal, technical, Apple-policy, cost, or maintenance reasons. Paid access already purchased will be handled consistently with applicable consumer law and Apple’s rules. Intentime does not promise permanent availability of a specific iOS API, report, interface, or compatibility with every future OS version.
14. Intellectual property and third-party terms
Intentime, its original interface, text, branding, and software are owned by or licensed to the Operator and are protected by applicable laws. Apple frameworks and services remain subject to Apple’s terms. Your use of a protected third-party app or website remains subject to that provider’s terms; Intentime does not grant rights in third-party content.
15. Disclaimers and limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Intentime is provided “as is” and “as available.” The Operator does not warrant precise timing, uninterrupted Shield, uninterrupted notifications or Live Activities, perfect Promise Gap evidence, data recovery, or achievement of a productivity or health result. Nothing in these Terms excludes statutory warranties, remedies, liability for fraud, willful misconduct, gross negligence, personal injury, or other rights that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.
[Legal review required: add a jurisdiction-appropriate liability cap and excluded-damages language only after release countries and operator status are confirmed.]
16. Suspension and termination
You may stop using and delete Intentime at any time, but must separately cancel Pro through Apple Account settings. The Operator may suspend or terminate access where reasonably necessary for unlawful use, security, legal compliance, or discontinued service, subject to non-waivable consumer rights. Sections intended by their nature to survive termination remain effective.
17. Consumer rights, governing law, and disputes
Mandatory consumer protections in your place of residence prevail where they apply. [Confirm before release with counsel: governing law, forum or arbitration/mediation process, opt-out rights if any, and regional consumer-law exceptions. Do not use this placeholder as a waiver of mandatory rights.]
18. Changes, operator, and contact
The final effective date and change-notice method will be added before release. Continued use after a validly notified update may constitute acceptance where permitted by law.
