Hearth Terms of Use
Last updated: September 22, 2026
1. Agreement
These terms apply to the Hearth app for iOS (“Hearth”) provided by Chris, Germany (“we”, “us”). By downloading or using Hearth you agree to them. Apple's Licensed Application End User License Agreement also applies; where the two conflict, Apple's EULA takes precedence.
2. Licence
We grant you a personal, non-transferable, non-exclusive licence to use Hearth on Apple devices you own or control, as permitted by the App Store Usage Rules. You may not copy, modify, reverse-engineer, or redistribute the app or its artwork.
3. Free tier and Hearth Plus
Hearth is free to use with up to three habits. “Hearth Plus” unlocks unlimited habits, the animated Living Flame, per-habit dashboards and insights, and pinned themes. Plus is offered as:
- Monthly subscription — renews every month
- Yearly subscription — renews every year
- Lifetime — a one-time purchase, no renewal
Prices are shown in the app in your local currency before you confirm. Prices may change for future purchases; an active subscription keeps its price until you are notified otherwise by Apple.
4. Subscription terms
- Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase.
- Subscriptions renew automatically unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
- Your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours prior to the end of the current period, at the price shown.
- You can manage or cancel subscriptions in your Apple ID settings (Settings › Apple ID › Subscriptions) at any time. Cancelling stops future renewals; you keep Plus until the end of the paid period.
- Any unused portion of a free trial period, if offered, is forfeited when you purchase a subscription.
- Refunds are handled by Apple under its refund policy at reportaproblem.apple.com; we cannot issue refunds directly.
- Lifetime purchases are non-recurring and can be restored on any device signed into the same Apple ID via “Restore purchases” in the app.
- Family Sharing is enabled for all Plus products.
5. Your data
Hearth stores your habits and history only on your device. We hold no account and no copy of your data. See the Privacy Policy for details. You are responsible for backing up your device; deleting the app deletes your Hearth data.
6. Not medical advice
Hearth is a motivational tool for building routines. It does not provide medical, health, or psychological advice, and streaks or insights are not a substitute for professional care.
7. Availability and changes
We may update, change, or discontinue features of Hearth at any time. We aim to keep Plus features available for the duration of any paid period; if we discontinue the app entirely we will say so in the app and on this page in advance.
8. Warranty and liability
Hearth is provided “as is”. To the extent permitted by law we exclude all warranties and are not liable for indirect or consequential loss arising from use of the app. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be excluded under applicable law, including your statutory rights as a consumer in the EU. German law applies, without prejudice to mandatory consumer protection rules of your country of residence.
