2.Description of Service

Lock Inward is a productivity and wellness application that allows users to set schedules during which access to selected apps on their iOS device is restricted. App access is restored only after the user completes a journaling session within the App. The App uses Apple's Screen Time and Focus APIs to enforce these restrictions.

3.Eligibility

You must be at least 13 years of age to use this App. By using the App, you represent and warrant that you meet this age requirement. If you are under 18, you should review these Terms with a parent or guardian.

4.License to Use the App

Subject to these Terms, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to download and use the App on your personal iOS device for your own personal, non-commercial purposes. This license does not include:

  • Copying, modifying, or distributing the App or its content
  • Reverse engineering or attempting to extract the source code of the App
  • Using the App for any commercial purpose without our prior written consent

Our total liability to you for any claims arising from your use of the App shall not exceed the amount you paid for the App or its premium features in the twelve (12) months preceding the claim.

10.Changes to the App and Terms

We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue the App or any part of it at any time, with or without notice. We may also update these Terms from time to time. We will notify you of material changes by updating the Effective Date at the top of these Terms. Your continued use of the App after any changes constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

11.Governing Law

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the United States, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. Any disputes arising from these Terms or your use of the App shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located in the United States.
