Terms of Service
Last updated: May 16, 2026
These Terms of Service ("Terms") are a contract between you and Jonas Gumdal, the independent developer of the Blockr iOS app ("Blockr", "we", "us"). By installing or using Blockr you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use Blockr.
1. What Blockr is
Blockr is an iOS app that uses Apple's Screen Time and Family Controls frameworks to help you set and follow your own screen-time goals — for example, by blocking selected apps for chosen periods of time.
Blockr is a self-help tool. It is not a medical, mental-health, or therapeutic device. It does not diagnose, treat, or cure any condition. If you think you may have a clinical addiction or other health concern, please consult a qualified professional.
2. Eligibility
You must be at least 13 years old (or the minimum age of digital consent in your country, whichever is higher) to use Blockr. By using Blockr you confirm you meet this requirement.
3. Your account
Blockr uses Sign in with Apple. You are responsible for keeping the Apple ID you use to sign in secure. We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms or that are used for fraudulent purposes.
You can delete your account at any time from inside the app (Settings → Delete Account). Deletion is final.
4. Subscriptions and payments
Some Blockr features require a paid subscription. Subscriptions are sold and managed by Apple under the App Store's standard terms.
- Billing — Apple charges your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase and at the start of each renewal period.
- Renewal — subscriptions renew automatically at the same price unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
- Managing or cancelling — open the App Store app, tap your profile, then "Subscriptions". We cannot cancel your subscription for you.
- Refunds — refunds are governed by Apple. To request one, visit reportaproblem.apple.com.
- Price changes — if we change subscription prices, Apple will notify you and ask for renewed consent before charging you the new amount.
5. Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- Reverse engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract source code from Blockr, except where this is expressly permitted by applicable law that cannot be overridden by contract.
- Use Blockr to harass another person, including by blocking access to communication apps on a device you do not own or are not authorized to manage.
- Use automated means to interact with our servers, scrape data, or interfere with normal operation.
- Circumvent any technical limitation of the app or the subscription system, or share, resell, or transfer your account to someone else.
6. Screen Time and device behavior
Blockr relies on Apple's Family Controls framework to enforce blocks. Family Controls is an Apple system service and may behave differently across iOS versions, may be paused or disabled by you in iOS Settings, and may not block every possible way to access an app or website. We do not guarantee that Blockr will prevent all access to apps or content you have selected.
You remain solely responsible for what you do with your own time and device. Blockr is a tool, not a guarantee.
7. Intellectual property
Blockr, including its source code, design, icons, copy, and brand, is owned by Jonas Gumdal and is protected by copyright and other intellectual-property laws. We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and use Blockr on iOS devices you own or control, solely for your personal, non-commercial use, in accordance with these Terms and the Apple Media Services Terms.
8. Updates and changes to the service
We may update Blockr from time to time, including by adding, changing, or removing features. We try to give reasonable notice of significant changes that affect paying subscribers. If a feature you have paid for is permanently removed, you may be entitled to a pro-rata refund through Apple.
9. Disclaimer of warranties
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Blockr is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, or uninterrupted operation. Your statutory consumer rights are not affected by this clause.
10. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, we will not be liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, data, or business opportunity, arising out of or related to your use of Blockr. Our total liability to you for any claim arising out of or relating to Blockr will not exceed the amount you paid us in the twelve months immediately before the event giving rise to the claim, or USD 50, whichever is greater. Nothing in these Terms excludes liability that cannot be excluded under applicable law.
11. Termination
You can stop using Blockr at any time by deleting the app, and you can delete your account from Settings → Delete Account. We may suspend or terminate your access if you materially breach these Terms. Sections that by their nature should survive termination (intellectual property, disclaimers, limitation of liability) will survive.
12. Governing law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of Cyprus, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute that cannot be resolved informally will be brought before the competent courts of Cyprus, except where mandatory consumer-protection law in your country of residence grants you the right to bring the dispute in your local courts.
13. Apple-specific terms
You acknowledge that these Terms are between you and us, not Apple, and that Apple is not responsible for Blockr or its content. Apple has no obligation to provide maintenance or support for Blockr. Apple is a third-party beneficiary of these Terms and may enforce them against you.
14. Changes to these Terms
If we make material changes we will update the "Last updated" date above and, where appropriate, notify you in-app. Continued use after a change takes effect means you accept the new Terms.
