Terms of Service for TaperSense
Effective Date: November 6, 2026
Last Updated: November 6, 2026
TaperSense is developed by XPWORX ("we," "our," or "us"). By installing or using TaperSense, you agree to these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, please do not use the app.
1. Who Can Use TaperSense
You must be at least 18 years old, and of legal smoking age where you live, to use TaperSense. By using the app, you confirm that you meet these requirements.
2. Not Medical Advice
TaperSense is a habit-tracking and self-help tool that helps you space out and reduce cigarettes on a plan you choose. It is not a medical device and does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.
- Talk to a doctor or other qualified health professional before changing how much you smoke, especially if you are pregnant, have a health condition, or take medication.
- Plans, timers, savings figures, health milestones, and insights in the app are estimates for motivation only. Your results may differ.
- If you have a medical emergency or are thinking about harming yourself, contact your local emergency services right away. Do not rely on the app.
3. The AI Coach
The AI coach writes replies with artificial intelligence (Google Gemini). Its replies are generated automatically, can be wrong or incomplete, and are not advice from a doctor, counselor, or other professional. Use your own judgment and do not rely on the coach for medical decisions.
The coach includes a small number of free messages, and further use requires TaperSense Pro. Please do not use the coach to create harmful, illegal, or abusive content. You can report a reply you think is wrong or unsafe from inside the app. How coach messages are handled is described in our Privacy Policy.
4. Your Account
You can use many features without an account. If you create one, including with Google Sign-In, you are responsible for keeping your login details secure and for activity under your account. Please give accurate information and tell us at the contact below if you think your account has been used without permission.
You can delete your account and its data at any time from the app or by following the steps on our account deletion page.
5. TaperSense Pro, Subscriptions, and Free Trials
Some features are available only with TaperSense Pro. Pro is sold through Google Play, which processes your payment; we never see your card details. Prices, billing periods, and any free trial are shown in the app before you buy.
- Automatic renewal: Subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each billing period and are charged to your Google Play account, unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the period ends.
- Free trials: If you start a free trial, you will be charged when it ends unless you cancel before then. Trial eligibility is decided at the time of the offer.
- Cancelling: You can cancel at any time in the Google Play Store under Payments & subscriptions. Uninstalling the app does not cancel a subscription. After you cancel, Pro stays active until the end of the period you already paid for.
- One-time purchases: If a one-time ("lifetime") Pro purchase is offered, it unlocks Pro for as long as TaperSense Pro is offered, without renewal charges.
- Refunds: Refunds are handled under Google Play's refund policies. You can request one through Google Play, or contact us and we will help where we can.
- Price changes: If a subscription price changes, Google Play will tell you in advance, as its rules require.
6. Acceptable Use
When using TaperSense, you agree not to:
- Break any law or use the app to harm yourself or others.
- Try to get around Pro limits, the coach's message limits, or other technical restrictions.
- Interfere with, overload, reverse engineer, or try to gain unauthorized access to the app, our servers, or other users' data, except where the law allows it.
- Copy, resell, or redistribute the app or its content.
7. Your Data and Content
The logs, notes, and other information you add belong to you. You allow us to store and process them only as needed to run the app's features, such as backup, sync, insights, and the AI coach. How we collect, use, and protect your data is explained in our Privacy Policy.
8. Our App and Content
TaperSense, including its design, text, graphics, logos, and software, belongs to XPWORX and its licensors. We give you a personal, non-transferable right to use the app for your own non-commercial use, under these terms.
9. Third-Party Services
TaperSense relies on services from other companies, including Google Play, Google Sign-In, Google Gemini, and RevenueCat. Your use of those services is also covered by their own terms. We are not responsible for services we do not control.
10. Changes and Availability
We may update, change, or remove features, and we may stop offering the app. We will try to give reasonable notice of major changes that affect a paid feature. The app may sometimes be unavailable, for example during maintenance.
11. Disclaimer
Except as required by law, TaperSense is provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind. We do not promise that the app will be error-free or always available, or that it will help you smoke less or quit.
12. Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent the law allows, XPWORX is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages, or for any loss of data or health outcomes, arising from your use of the app. Our total liability for any claim about the app is limited to the amount you paid for TaperSense Pro in the 12 months before the claim.
Nothing in these terms limits any rights you have under consumer protection laws that cannot be waived, such as those in the European Economic Area and the United Kingdom.
13. Ending Your Use
You can stop using TaperSense at any time by deleting your account and uninstalling the app. We may suspend or end access for anyone who seriously or repeatedly breaks these terms. Sections 2, 7, 8, 11, and 12 continue to apply after your use ends.
14. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms of Service from time to time. Any updates will be posted on this page with a revised "Last Updated" date. If you keep using the app after an update, you accept the updated terms.
