Timers & Alarms

Terms of Use

Effective date: September 13, 2026

Please read these Terms of Use ("Terms") carefully before using the Timers & Alarms mobile application (the "App") and the website at timetrack.apps.advoss.de (the "Website"), operated by Detlev Voss ("we", "us", "our"). By downloading, installing, or using the App, or by accessing the Website, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the App or the Website.

1. Scope

These Terms govern your use of the Timers & Alarms App for iPhone and iPad, as well as the accompanying Website. They apply to all users of the App and visitors to the Website.

2. Description of the App

Timers & Alarms is a timer and alarm utility that provides countdown timers, repeating timers, interval timers, and alarms for personal time management. It includes features such as widgets and Live Activities.

3. License and Intellectual Property

We grant you a non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to use the App on Apple devices that you own or control, for your personal, non-commercial purposes and within the usage rules of the Apple EULA, including Family Sharing where a purchase supports it. All rights, title, and interest in and to the App and its content — including but not limited to software, design, text, graphics, and trademarks — remain with Detlev Voss. You may not copy, modify, distribute, reverse-engineer, decompile, or create derivative works of the App or any part thereof, except where the law expressly permits it.

4. Apple App Store Terms

The App is distributed through the Apple App Store. Your use of the App is also subject to the terms and conditions of the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions, including the Licensed Application End User Licence Agreement ("Apple EULA"). These Terms supplement the Apple EULA. For users in the European Union, the version of the Apple EULA contained in the Apple Media Services Terms of their country applies. Mandatory statutory provisions take precedence over both. You acknowledge that:

• These Terms are between you and Detlev Voss, not Apple Inc. Detlev Voss, not Apple, is solely responsible for the App and its content.
• Apple has no obligation to provide maintenance or support services for the App.
• In the event of any failure of the App to conform to an applicable warranty, you may notify Apple and Apple will refund the purchase price (if any). To the maximum extent permitted by law, Apple has no other warranty obligation with respect to the App.
• Detlev Voss, not Apple, is responsible for addressing any claims relating to the App, including product liability claims, claims that the App fails to meet legal or regulatory requirements, and claims arising under consumer protection or similar legislation.
• In the event of a third-party intellectual property claim, Detlev Voss, not Apple, is solely responsible for the investigation, defence, settlement, and discharge of such claim.
• Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms. Upon your acceptance of these Terms, Apple has the right to enforce them against you as a third-party beneficiary.

5. In-App Purchases and Subscriptions

The App may offer in-app purchases or subscriptions to unlock additional features. All purchases are processed by Apple through the App Store and are subject to Apple's payment terms. Prices are displayed in the App prior to purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current billing period. You can manage or cancel subscriptions in your Apple Account settings. Refunds are handled by Apple in accordance with their refund policy. We do not have access to your payment details.

6. Acceptable Use

You agree to use the App and Website only for lawful purposes and in accordance with these Terms. You agree not to:

• Use the App for any purpose that is illegal or prohibited by these Terms.
• Attempt to gain unauthorised access to any part of the App, its servers, or any systems connected to the App.
• Use the App in any manner that could interfere with, disrupt, or negatively affect the App or the experience of other users.
• Use the App as the sole timing mechanism for safety-critical, medical, industrial, or professional processes where timer precision could affect health, safety, or significant outcomes.

7. Warranty

The statutory warranty rights for digital products apply, in particular under Directive (EU) 2019/770 (Digital Content Directive) and the national law implementing it, such as §§ 327 et seq. of the German Civil Code (BGB). We give no guarantee beyond these statutory rights.

The App works within the limits of the devices, operating systems and services it relies on:

• Whether timer notifications are delivered depends on device settings, operating system behaviour, battery state, and network conditions.
• We adapt the App to new versions of iOS and iPadOS within the scope of our update obligation (section 10).

8. Liability

We are liable without limitation for damage caused intentionally or through gross negligence, for injury to life, body or health, under the German Product Liability Act (Produkthaftungsgesetz), and to the extent of any guarantee we have given.

For slight negligence, we are liable only if we breach an essential obligation — an obligation whose fulfilment makes the proper use of the App possible in the first place and on whose fulfilment you may regularly rely. In that case, our liability is limited to the damage that is foreseeable and typical for this kind of contract. Otherwise, liability for slight negligence is excluded.

These limitations also apply in favour of our legal representatives and vicarious agents. Your statutory rights regarding digital products remain unaffected.

9. Third-Party Services and Links

The Website may contain links to third-party websites or services that are not owned or controlled by us. We have no control over, and assume no responsibility for, the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third-party websites or services. We recommend that you read the terms and privacy policies of any third-party sites you visit.

10. Availability and Updates

We provide the updates, including security updates, that are needed to keep the App in conformity with the contract, for the period required by law. Beyond that, we decide ourselves which new features we develop. Updates are delivered through the App Store. If you do not install an update within a reasonable time although we have informed you about it and about the consequences of not installing it, we are not liable for defects that result solely from the missing update.

We may change the App or its features for a valid reason — for example to adapt it to new system versions, to legal requirements or to security needs — provided that the change costs you nothing extra and that we inform you about it clearly. If a change impairs your access to or use of features you have paid for more than insignificantly, you may terminate the contract within 30 days, as provided by § 327r of the German Civil Code (BGB).

We may stop offering the App for download. This does not affect copies that are already installed or your statutory rights.

11. Termination

You may stop using the App at any time by deleting it from your devices; you cancel subscriptions in your Apple Account settings. We may end your licence only for good cause, in particular a serious breach of these Terms, and only after a warning where a warning is reasonable. Your statutory rights remain unaffected.

12. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms, for example when features or legal requirements change. The revised version is published on this page with a new effective date and applies to downloads and purchases made after its publication. Changes to terms that already apply to you take effect only with your consent; neither your silence nor your continued use of the App counts as consent.

13. Governing Law and Jurisdiction

German law applies, excluding the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. If you are a consumer, this choice of law does not deprive you of the protection of the mandatory provisions of the law of the country in which you have your habitual residence. If you are a merchant, a legal entity under public law or a special fund under public law, the courts of Berlin, Germany, have exclusive jurisdiction over all disputes arising from these Terms.

14. Severability

If any provision of these Terms is or becomes invalid, the remaining provisions remain effective. The statutory provisions apply in place of the invalid provision.
