Terms of Service

Effective date: March 31, 2026

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of the Focusami mobile application ("the app", "Focusami", "we", "our"). By downloading or using Focusami, you agree to these Terms.

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using Focusami, you confirm that you are at least 13 years of age and agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the app.

2. Description of Service

Focusami is a mobile application that helps users manage their screen time and attention by:

  • Providing timed focus sessions with app-blocking capabilities
  • Allowing users to schedule recurring focus blocks
  • Tracking focus session history and statistics

The app operates entirely on your device. There are no user accounts, cloud services, or server-side components.

3. App Blocking Functionality

3.1 Nature of Blocking

Focusami uses platform-provided APIs to restrict access to apps you select during focus sessions:

  • iOS: Uses Apple's Screen Time API (FamilyControls / ManagedSettings). Blocking is enforced by the operating system.
  • Android: Uses a system overlay to discourage app usage. This method is best-effort; the overlay can be dismissed by the user.

3.2 No Guarantee of Blocking

Focusami provides app blocking on a best-effort basis. We do not guarantee that blocking will be unbreakable or function in all circumstances. Platform updates, permission changes, or device-specific behaviors may affect blocking effectiveness. Focusami is a self-discipline tool, not a parental control or security product.

3.3 Your Responsibility

You are responsible for selecting which apps to block and for granting the necessary permissions. Do not block apps that you may need access to in an emergency (e.g., phone, messaging apps for urgent contacts).

4. Permissions

Focusami requests certain device permissions to function:

  • Screen Time / FamilyControls (iOS) — required to block apps
  • Usage Stats access (Android) — required to detect foreground apps
  • Display over other apps (Android) — required to show the blocking overlay

All permissions are optional and requested through standard platform dialogs. You can revoke them at any time through your device settings. Revoking permissions will disable the corresponding features.

5. Intellectual Property

The Focusami app, including its design, code, origami-themed user interface, graphics, and documentation, is owned by Focusami and protected by applicable intellectual property laws. You are granted a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the app for personal, non-commercial purposes.

You may not:

  • Copy, modify, or distribute the app or its contents
  • Reverse-engineer, decompile, or disassemble the app
  • Use the app for commercial purposes without written permission
  • Remove or alter any proprietary notices in the app

6. Privacy

Your privacy is fundamental to Focusami. We do not collect, transmit, or store any personal data on external servers. For full details, please see our Privacy Policy.

7. Disclaimer of Warranties

Focusami 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.

We do not warrant that:

  • The app will be uninterrupted or error-free
  • App blocking will function on all devices or OS versions
  • The app will meet your specific requirements
  • Any defects will be corrected

8. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Focusami and its developers shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of profits or revenue, whether incurred directly or indirectly, or any loss of data, use, goodwill, or other intangible losses, resulting from:

  • Your use or inability to use the app
  • Any failure of the app-blocking functionality
  • Unauthorized access to or alteration of your local data
  • Any third-party platform changes that affect app functionality

9. Modifications to the App

We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue Focusami at any time without notice. We are not liable to you or any third party for any modification, suspension, or discontinuance of the app.

10. Changes to These Terms

We may revise these Terms from time to time. The updated version will be posted on this page with a new effective date. Continued use of the app after changes constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

11. Governing Law

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the jurisdiction in which Focusami operates, without regard to conflict of law principles.
