Terms of Use

Last updated: May 26, 2026

1. Acceptance of Terms

Welcome to Morning Press (the "App"). These Terms of Use ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the App. In these Terms, "we", "us", and "our" refer to Morning Press. By downloading, installing, or using the App, you agree to be bound by these Terms and by our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the App.

2. Eligibility

You must be at least 13 years old (or the minimum age of digital consent in your jurisdiction, whichever is higher) to use the App. By using the App, you represent and warrant that you meet this requirement. If you are using the App on behalf of an organisation, you also represent that you have the authority to bind that organisation to these Terms.

3. License to Use the App

Subject to your compliance with these Terms, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable licence to download and use the App on devices that you own or control, for your personal, non-commercial use, in accordance with the applicable store's terms of service (see Sections 15 and 16). This licence also permits other accounts associated with the purchaser via Family Sharing, family library sharing, or volume purchasing to access the App.

You agree not to:

• Copy, modify, distribute, sell, rent, lease, sublicense, or create derivative works of the App.
• Reverse-engineer, decompile, disassemble, or attempt to derive the source code of the App, except where this restriction is prohibited by law.
• Remove, alter, or obscure any copyright, trademark, or other proprietary notice in the App.
• Use the App in any way that could harm us, other users, or any third party, or that interferes with the App's normal operation.
• Use the App to violate any law, regulation, or third-party right.

4. Pro Subscription and Free Trial

Morning Press is free to download and use. The core experience — creating projects, tracking habits, and building streaks on your device — is available at no cost and does not require any subscription. You can use the free version of the App for as long as you like.

We also offer an optional Pro subscription. New users can start a 3-day free trial of Pro from within the App. The following terms apply to all Pro subscriptions and trials:

• Free trial. The 3-day free trial gives you full Pro access during the trial period. You will not be charged during the trial. If you do not cancel before the trial ends, your paid Pro subscription will begin automatically at the price displayed at sign-up. The free trial is offered once per Apple ID — re-installing the App or creating a new identifier does not reset the trial.
• After the trial. If you choose not to subscribe after the trial ends, you will continue to have free access to the core App. Pro features will simply be unavailable until you choose to subscribe. Your locally stored content (projects, habits, streaks) is unaffected either way.
• Billing. Payment is charged to your Apple ID account upon confirmation of purchase. Available plans (e.g., monthly, yearly) and their prices are displayed in the App.
• Auto-renewal. Pro subscriptions automatically renew at the end of each billing period unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the current period ends. Your Apple ID will be charged for renewal within 24 hours prior to the end of the current period.
• Managing and cancelling. You can view, manage, and cancel your subscription at any time in your iPhone's Settings → Apple ID → Subscriptions. Deleting the App does not automatically cancel a paid subscription — you must cancel through your Apple ID settings.
• Refunds. All purchases are handled by Apple. Refund requests should be made directly to Apple through the Report a Problem page.
• Price changes. If we change the price of a subscription, we will notify you in advance and you will have the opportunity to cancel before the change takes effect.

We do not receive, see, or store your payment information. Apple's Media Services Terms apply to all purchases.

5. Your Content

The App allows you to create personal content such as projects, tasks, habits, and notes ("Your Content"). Your Content is stored on your device and remains yours. You are solely responsible for Your Content and for ensuring that it does not violate any applicable law or the rights of others.

Separately, the App sends limited information (described in our Privacy Policy) to our backend and analytics provider so we can operate and improve the App. By using the App, you grant us a worldwide, royalty-free licence to store and process this information for the purposes described in the Privacy Policy.

6. Acceptable Use

You agree not to use the App to:

• Harass, abuse, defame, or harm any person.
• Transmit any unlawful, infringing, fraudulent, or otherwise harmful content.
• Interfere with the security or operation of the App, our servers, or our service providers' systems.
• Attempt to gain unauthorised access to any account, system, or data.
• Use the App in connection with any commercial purpose without our prior written consent.

7. Intellectual Property

The App and all its contents — including but not limited to the name, logo, mascot, design, graphics, illustrations, text, audio, and source code — are owned by or licensed to us and are protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws. These Terms do not grant you any rights in our trademarks, trade dress, or brand assets. You may not use any of them without our prior written consent.

8. Third-Party Services

The App integrates with third-party services to operate, including Apple (App Store, in-app purchases, push notifications), Supabase (backend database), PostHog (product analytics), and Web3Forms (website contact form). The Privacy Policy describes what information is shared with each. Your use of any third-party service is subject to that service's own terms and privacy policy, and we are not responsible for their content, policies, or practices.

9. Disclaimers

THE APP IS PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, OR ACCURACY. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE APP WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR FREE OF HARMFUL COMPONENTS, OR THAT ANY DATA YOU STORE OR TRANSMIT WILL BE SECURE OR NOT LOST.

The App is a personal productivity tool. It is not a substitute for professional advice — medical, mental health, financial, legal, or otherwise. If you are experiencing a crisis or in need of professional support, please contact a qualified professional or your local emergency services.

10. Limitation of Liability

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL WE, OUR AFFILIATES, OR OUR SERVICE PROVIDERS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, OR GOODWILL, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE APP, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS OR THE APP WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNT YOU HAVE PAID US FOR THE APP IN THE TWELVE MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM, OR (B) ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS (US$100).

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain damages, so some of the above limitations may not apply to you. Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law (such as for death, personal injury caused by negligence, or fraud).

11. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless us, our affiliates, and our employees from any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or related to (a) your use of the App, (b) Your Content, (c) your violation of these Terms, or (d) your violation of any law or third-party right.

12. Termination

You may stop using the App at any time by uninstalling it from your device. We may suspend or terminate your access to the App at any time, with or without notice, if we believe you have violated these Terms or if your use of the App may harm us, other users, or any third party. Sections that by their nature should survive termination (including Sections 7, 9, 10, 11, and 14) will survive. For the avoidance of doubt, the platform-specific terms in Sections 15 and 16 also survive termination.

13. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. When we do, we'll update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. For material changes, we'll do our best to also surface a notice in the App. Continued use of the App after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.

14. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles. Any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the App will be resolved in the state or federal courts located in Loudoun County, Virginia, and you consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of those courts. If you are a consumer resident in the European Union, you may also bring claims in the courts of your country of residence, and the mandatory consumer protections of your country of residence will apply notwithstanding this section.

15. Apple-Specific Terms

These Terms are between you and us, not with Apple. Apple is not responsible for the App or its content. To the extent any term of these Terms conflicts with the Apple App Store's Licensed Application End User License Agreement, the App Store's terms will control with respect to your use of the App.

• Scope of licence. The licence granted in Section 3 is limited to use on Apple-branded devices that you own or control, as permitted by the App Store Usage Rules.
• Maintenance and support. We are solely responsible for providing any maintenance and support services for the App. Apple has no obligation whatsoever to furnish any maintenance and support services with respect to the App.
• Warranties. If the App fails to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple will refund the App's purchase price to you (if applicable). To the maximum extent permitted by law, Apple has no other warranty obligations whatsoever with respect to the App, and we are responsible for any other claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs, or expenses attributable to a warranty failure.
• Product claims. We — not Apple — are responsible for addressing any claims relating to the App, including product liability, failure to conform to legal requirements, and consumer protection claims.
• Intellectual property. In the event of any third-party claim that the App or your use of it infringes that party's intellectual property rights, we — not Apple — will be solely responsible for the investigation, defence, settlement, and discharge of any such claim.
• Compliance. You represent and warrant that you are not located in a country subject to a U.S. Government embargo or designated as a "terrorist supporting" country, and that you are not listed on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
• Third-party beneficiary. Apple and Apple's subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and, upon your acceptance, will have the right to enforce them against you.

16. Google Play Store Terms

If you downloaded the App from the Google Play Store, the following additional terms apply:

• Licence scope. The licence granted in Section 3 extends to use on Android devices that you own or control, in accordance with the Google Play Terms of Service.
• Maintenance and support. We are solely responsible for providing any maintenance and support services for the App. Google has no obligation whatsoever to furnish any maintenance and support services with respect to the App.
• Warranties and product claims. We, not Google, are responsible for addressing any claims relating to the App, including product liability, failure to conform to legal requirements, and consumer protection claims. Google bears no warranty obligation with respect to the App.
• Refunds. Refund requests for purchases made through the Google Play Store should be directed to Google through the Google Play refund process.
• Third-party beneficiary. Google is not a party to these Terms and has no obligation or liability under them.

17. Miscellaneous

These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, are the entire agreement between you and us regarding the App and supersede any prior agreements. If any part of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining parts will remain in full force and effect. Our failure to enforce any provision does not constitute a waiver of that provision. You may not assign or transfer these Terms; we may assign them at our discretion.
