Pudding Alarm — Terms of Service
These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of the Pudding Alarm mobile application ("the App"). By downloading or using the App, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the App.
1. The Service
Pudding Alarm helps you capture reminders by text or voice and schedules them in your device's alarm/reminder system so you are notified at the right time.
- The free version includes a limited number of reminder credits per period.
- Pudding Alarm PRO is an optional one-time, lifetime purchase that unlocks unlimited credits and additional features.
2. Free Quota
The free tier includes 5 free alarm slots per quota period. A quota period refreshes on the 1st of each month at 7:00 AM in your device's local time. Creating alarms in the App, creating them through Siri or App Intents, and restoring alarms from history all share the same quota pool.
Quota follows a "reserve — return or settle" lifecycle:
- A slot is used when a new alarm is successfully registered with the system. If registration fails, no slot is used.
- Restoring an alarm from history uses a slot only if it is successfully re-registered.
- If you delete an alarm in the App before its first effective reminder time within the same period, the used slot is returned.
- Once an alarm reaches its first effective reminder time, its slot is settled and is not returned for later deletion, completion, or moving to history.
- A repeating alarm uses only one slot; after its first effective reminder it settles once, and later repeats do not use additional slots.
- Editing an existing alarm does not use a new slot. A failed update does not deduct a slot and is reported to you.
- Canceled creations, insufficient permission, and system failures do not use or settle any slot.
Returned slots never make a period's available quota exceed 5. Unused slots expire at the next refresh and do not roll over. When your quota is fully used or settled, the App may block new alarm creation and show when your quota next refreshes. You can still view and edit existing alarms.
3. License
We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and use the App on Apple devices you own or control, solely for your personal, non-commercial use, subject to these Terms and the Apple App Store terms.
4. In-App Purchase
- PRO is a non-consumable, one-time purchase. Your entitlement is tied to your Apple Account and can be restored on your other devices using "Restore Purchases".
- All billing, payment, and refunds are handled by Apple, subject to Apple's terms and the App Store refund policy. We do not process payments directly.
- Prices and features may change. A one-time purchase is generally non-refundable except as required by law or Apple's refund policy.
5. Voice, Siri & Permissions
The voice feature uses Apple's speech recognition and requires microphone permission. Siri and App Intents may process your voice and instruction parameters through Apple. You are responsible for the content you input. The App is a tool for organizing your own reminders and must not be used to store unlawful or infringing content.
6. Important Disclaimer — Missed Reminders
Reminders depend on your device being on, charged, and correctly configured, and on iOS notifications/alarms functioning properly. We do not guarantee that any reminder will be delivered. The App is provided as a convenience and must not be relied on for critical, time-sensitive, medical, legal, financial, or safety-related matters. You are solely responsible for any missed reminder.
7. Disclaimer of Warranties
THE APP IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE", WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.
8. Limitation of Liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF DATA, PROFITS, OR GOODWILL, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF THE APP.
9. Intellectual Property
The App and its content, design, branding, and software are owned by us or our licensors and are protected by applicable intellectual property laws. You may not copy, modify, reverse engineer, distribute, or create derivative works of the App except as permitted by law.
10. Termination
We may suspend or terminate your access to the App if you violate these Terms. You may stop using the App at any time by deleting it.
11. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. Continued use of the App after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.
12. Severability
If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect, and the invalid provision will be interpreted as closely as possible to its intended meaning within the limits of the law.
