Terms of Use
Terms of Use
These Terms of Use (“Terms”) govern your use of the iOS app Type Alarm / 打字闹钟 (“the App”). By downloading or using the App, you agree to these Terms.
1. The service
Type Alarm schedules alarms and requires a typing challenge to fully dismiss certain alarms. Stopping a ring without completing the challenge may cause the alarm to ring again. This behavior is intentional product design.
2. Free trial and subscriptions
New users may receive a limited free trial of full features (currently three days of wall-clock time from first open). After the trial, real alarms require an active Type Alarm Pro subscription. Practice typing remains available without a subscription.
Subscription options may include:
- Type Alarm Pro — Monthly
- Type Alarm Pro — Yearly
Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel in Settings → Apple ID → Subscriptions. Refunds are handled by Apple according to Apple’s policies.
3. License
We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the App on Apple devices you own or control, in accordance with the App Store Terms of Service and these Terms.
4. Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- Misuse the App in ways that violate law or third-party rights
- Attempt to reverse engineer or interfere with the App’s normal operation, except as allowed by law
- Use the App in any manner that could harm you or others if an alarm fails (always use backup methods for critical wakes when needed)
5. Health and reliability disclaimer
Alarms depend on iOS, device power, volume, focus modes, permissions, and system policies. We aim for reliability but do not guarantee that every alarm will ring in every situation (for example low battery, Do Not Disturb configurations, OS bugs, or denied permissions). For critical obligations, use multiple wake methods.
6. Intellectual property
The App, branding, and content are owned by us or our licensors. You may not copy or redistribute them except as allowed by these Terms or applicable law.
7. Privacy
Our Privacy Policy explains how we handle information.
8. Disclaimer of warranties
THE APP IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.
9. Limitation of liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE ARE NOT LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, OR GOODWILL, ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THE APP. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM RELATING TO THE APP IS LIMITED TO THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US FOR THE APP IN THE TWELVE MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM (OR ZERO IF YOU ONLY USED FREE FEATURES).
10. Changes and termination
We may update the App or these Terms. Continued use after changes means you accept the updated Terms. We may suspend or discontinue the App. You may stop using the App at any time and cancel subscriptions through Apple.
11. Governing law
These Terms are governed by the laws applicable in your place of residence, without regard to conflict-of-law rules, except where mandatory consumer protections apply.
