Legal

Terms of Use

Effective 26 July 2026

The short version: use Daybreak for your own mornings, don't try to break it, the free features stay free, and the subscription renews until you cancel it in your Apple account.

The agreement that governs the app

Daybreak is licensed, not sold, to you. Your licence is Apple's Standard End User Licence Agreement, which applies to every app distributed through the App Store. Where anything on this page conflicts with that agreement, the Apple agreement wins.

These terms cover the parts specific to our service. By using Daybreak you accept both.

Who can use it

You need an Apple Account and an iPhone running iOS 17 or later. Daybreak is for people 13 and over. You're responsible for anything done through your account.

Subscriptions and billing

Acceptable use

Don't use Daybreak to harass anyone in a circle, don't try to fake proof or interfere with other people's streaks, don't attempt to break, reverse-engineer, or overload the service, and don't use it for anything unlawful. We can suspend accounts that do.

Your content

Your proof photos, journal notes, and check-ins are yours. Proof photos never leave your device. You grant us only the permission needed to store and display the data that makes the app work — your streak, your check-ins, and what your circle sees. See the Privacy Policy for the detail.

What Daybreak is not

It is not a medical or clinical product. Daybreak is a habit app. It does not diagnose, treat, or monitor any sleep condition, and nothing in it is medical advice. If you're worried about your sleep, talk to a doctor.

It is not a guaranteed alarm. Daybreak uses Apple's alarm and notification systems and does everything it can to wake you, but no app can promise an alarm will fire — a dead battery, a disabled permission, or an operating-system change can all stop it. Don't rely on it alone for something that truly cannot be missed.

Availability and changes

We may add, change, or remove features, and the service may be unavailable at times. If we materially change these terms we'll update this page and move the effective date, and surface it in the app where it matters.

Liability

To the fullest extent the law allows, Daybreak is provided “as is” without warranties, and our total liability to you is limited to the amount you paid us in the twelve months before the claim. Nothing here limits liability that can't legally be limited.
