Terms of Service
Last updated: May 4, 2026
1. Acceptance of Terms
By downloading, installing, or using the Promises mobile application ("App"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms, do not download or use the App. These Terms constitute a legally binding agreement between you and Kyox LLC ("we," "us," or "our").
2. Description of Service
Promises is a Bible promises application that delivers daily curated Bible verses, guided prayer templates, and faith-building tools across multiple categories. The App is available on iOS and Android devices and offers both free and premium subscription tiers.
3. License
Subject to your compliance with these Terms, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to download and use the App on devices that you own or control, in accordance with the usage rules set forth in the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions or Google Play Terms of Service, as applicable. You may not distribute or make the App available over a network where it could be used by multiple devices at the same time, except as permitted through Apple's Family Sharing or volume purchasing programs.
4. Subscriptions and Billing
4.1 Premium Subscription
Premium features are available through auto-renewable subscriptions. Current pricing is displayed in the App before purchase. Payment is charged to your Apple ID account or Google Play account at confirmation of purchase.
4.2 Auto-Renewal
Subscriptions automatically renew unless auto-renewal is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current billing period. Your account will be charged for renewal within 24 hours prior to the end of the current period at the same rate.
4.3 Free Trial
Promises offers a 3-day free trial for new subscribers. During the trial, you have full access to all Promises Premium features. Your subscription will automatically convert to a paid subscription at the end of the 3-day trial period unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the trial ends. The price of the paid subscription will be displayed before you start the trial and at the time of conversion.
You can cancel at any time during the trial — including immediately after starting it — and continue to enjoy Premium access until the trial period expires, after which your subscription will not renew and no charge will be made.
4.4 Managing and Cancelling Subscriptions
You may manage or cancel your subscription at any time through your device settings:
- iOS:Settings > Apple ID > Subscriptions
- Android:Google Play Store > Menu > Subscriptions
Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period. No refunds are provided for partial billing periods.
5. Content and Intellectual Property
Bible verses included in the App are sourced from publicly available translations. Prayer templates, app design, code, graphics, icons, and all other creative assets are the original property of Kyox LLC or its licensors and are protected by intellectual property laws. You may not copy, modify, distribute, sell, or lease any part of the App or its content without our prior written consent.
6. Focus Feature (App Lock)
Promises includes an optional feature called Focus that helps you build intentional phone-use habits. When enabled, Focus reminds you to pause and read a short Bible verse and prayer before opening apps you have personally selected.
Focus is off by default. You must explicitly enable it and select which apps to include. You can disable Focus, change your selected apps, or revoke the underlying permissions at any time from Settings → Focus inside the App.
On Android, Focus uses the Android Accessibility Service to detect when a selected app is launched. The service is used solely for this purpose and does not read screen content, capture keystrokes, record media, or transmit any data off your device.
On iOS, when supported, Focus uses Apple's FamilyControls, ManagedSettings, and DeviceActivity frameworks to provide the same behavior. Selected app tokens are stored on your device and are not transmitted to our servers.
Full details on what data Focus accesses (and what it does not) are described in our Privacy Policy under section 7.
Focus is a wellness feature intended to support your personal spiritual practice. It is not a parental-control tool, and Kyox LLC makes no representation that Focus will prevent any specific use of your device or any third-party app. You remain solely responsible for your use of the App and your device.
7. User Conduct
You agree that you will not:
- Use the App for any unlawful purpose or in violation of any applicable laws

- Redistribute, sublicense, or commercially exploit any part of the App

- RevenueCat: For subscription management and entitlement verification
- Supabase: For secure cloud data storage and analytics
Your use of these third-party services is subject to their respective terms and privacy policies. We are not responsible for the practices of third-party service providers.
9. Disclaimer of Warranties
The App is provided on an "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" basis without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the App will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of harmful components.

Our total aggregate liability shall not exceed the amount you paid for the App in the twelve (12) months preceding the claim.
11. Termination
We may terminate or suspend your access to the App at any time, without prior notice, for any reason, including if you breach these Terms.
