Steady — End User License Agreement

Effective date: [DATE] Provider: [COMPANY NAME] ("we", "us")

By downloading or using Steady ("the App"), you agree to this Agreement. If you do not agree, do not use the App.


1. Licence

We grant you a personal, non-transferable, non-exclusive licence to use the App on Apple-branded devices that you own or control, as permitted by the App Store Terms of Service, for your own personal, non-commercial use.

2. You must be 17 or over

Steady is for adults in recovery. You confirm you are at least 17 years old. Do not use the App, and do not post to the Community feed, if you are younger than that.

3. ⚠️ Steady is not medical care — important

Steady is a self-help and support tool. It is not a medical device, and it does not provide medical advice, diagnosis or treatment. It is not a substitute for care from a doctor, therapist or addiction specialist.

Always seek advice from a qualified professional for any medical or mental-health condition, and never disregard that advice because of something you read in the App.

4. The Community feed — zero tolerance

The Community feed is a shared, public space used by people in recovery, some of whom are having the worst day of their lives. We have no tolerance for objectionable content or abusive behaviour, and no tolerance for users who engage in it.

You agree not to post anything that:

How this is enforced:

If you believe content breaches these rules, report it in the App or contact us at [support@yourdomain.com]. We aim to act on reports within 24 hours.

5. Your content, and the permission you give us

Everything you write stays yours. We claim no ownership of your posts, photos, journal entries or anything else you create.

Your private recovery data — check-ins, journal, triggers, contacts, sobriety history — stays on your device. We never receive it, so this section does not apply to it.

For Community posts only: so that we can actually run the feed, you grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to store, copy, screen, moderate and display the content you post, and to show it to other users of the App. This licence exists solely to operate the Community feed, lasts only as long as your post does, and ends when you delete the post — except for copies we must keep briefly in backups or to comply with the law.

You confirm that you own or have the right to post anything you share, and that it does not breach section 4.

6. Acceptable use of the App

You agree not to reverse-engineer, decompile or tamper with the App; not to use it unlawfully; not to attempt to access other users' data or identify other users; not to interfere with or overload our servers; and not to use the App to harm yourself or anyone else.

You are responsible for the accuracy of what you enter, including any accountability contact — for whom you confirm you have permission to store their details and to contact them through the App.

7. Price and subscriptions

Steady is currently free. There is no in-app purchase in this version.

If we introduce Steady Plus, a paid auto-renewing subscription, these terms will apply and the price and billing period will be shown to you before you buy:

8. Availability

We provide the App "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, to the fullest extent the law allows. We do not warrant that it will be uninterrupted or error-free, that the Community feed will always be available, or that moderation will catch everything. Automated screening is good but not perfect; content that breaches section 4 may still appear before it is reported and removed.

9. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect, incidental or consequential loss, or for any relapse, harm or loss arising from your use of, or reliance on, the App — including any failure of a geofenced warning to fire, any content posted by another user, or any response from the AI companion.

Nothing in this Agreement limits or excludes liability that cannot lawfully be limited or excluded, including liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or for fraud. If you are a consumer, you keep all your statutory rights.

10. Ending this Agreement

This licence ends when you stop using or delete the App, or if you breach this Agreement. We may suspend or terminate your access to the Community feed at any time for a breach of section 4. You can delete your posts and clear your on-device data from within the App at any time.

11. Changes

We may update the App and this Agreement. Where a change materially affects your rights, we will surface it in the App. Continuing to use the App after a change means you accept the updated terms.

12. Apple-specific terms

These terms are required because this Agreement replaces Apple's standard EULA. You and we both acknowledge that:

  1. This Agreement is between you and us only — not with Apple. We, not Apple, are solely responsible for the App and its content.
  2. The licence in section 1 is limited to Apple-branded products you own or control, as permitted by the App Store Terms of Service.
  3. Apple has no obligation to provide any maintenance or support for the App. We are solely responsible for support, at [support@yourdomain.com].
  4. Warranty. If the App fails to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple will refund the purchase price. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Apple has no other warranty obligation, and any other claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs or expenses attributable to a failure to conform to a warranty are our sole responsibility.
  5. Product claims. We, not Apple, are responsible for addressing any claim by you or a third party relating to the App or your use of it, including product liability claims, any claim that the App fails to conform to a legal or regulatory requirement, and claims under consumer protection or similar law.
  6. Intellectual property claims. If a third party claims the App infringes their intellectual property rights, we, not Apple, are solely responsible for the investigation, defence, settlement and discharge of that claim.
  7. Legal compliance. You confirm that you are not located in a country subject to a US Government embargo or designated as a "terrorist supporting" country, and that you are not on any US Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
  8. Contact. Questions or complaints about the App should be directed to [COMPANY NAME] at [support@yourdomain.com].
  9. Third-party terms. You must comply with any applicable third-party terms of agreement when using the App.
  10. Apple is a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement and, on your acceptance of it, has the right to enforce it against you.

13. Governing law

This Agreement is governed by the laws of [JURISDICTION], without regard to conflict-of-laws rules. If you are a consumer, this does not deprive you of the protection of the mandatory law of the country where you live.
