Terms of Use

Effective 4 November 2026

The licensor is Better Things Oy in Tampere, Finland (Business ID 3656952-2). On iPhone, Save Your Time is licensed under Apple’s standard Licensed Application End User License Agreement, and the points below summarise how the subscription and its free week work; they don’t replace that agreement. On Android, this whole page is the agreement, together with Google Play’s Terms of Service, and its licence is under The licence on Android.

Without a subscription

Your oldest rule and focus sessions work for free, for as long as you like. More rules (up to 10), strict mode and Allow Only (blocking everything except the few apps you choose) need the subscription.

Free week

The yearly plan starts with 7 free days, with every feature. The App Store offers them only to an Apple Account that hasn’t subscribed to Save Your Time before, and charges it for the year when the free days end, unless you cancel at least 24 hours before. Google Play offers them only to a Google Account that has never had a Save Your Time subscription, and charges it for the year when the free days end, unless you cancel before then.

Subscription

  • There are two plans with the same features: €4.99 a month or €29.99 a year, or the price the store shows in your country. Both allow up to 10 rules and add strict mode and Allow Only.
  • The monthly plan is charged when you subscribe; the yearly plan when its free week ends.
  • Payment is charged to the Apple Account or Google Account you subscribe with. The subscription renews automatically at the end of each period: on the App Store unless you cancel at least 24 hours before it ends, on Google Play until you cancel.
  • Cancel any time in your Apple Account settings, or in the Play Store under Payments & subscriptions. You keep access until the end of the period you’ve paid for.
  • Refunds and your right to withdraw from a purchase: Your rights as a consumer.

When access ends

When a subscription ends, or a free week you cancelled, your oldest rule keeps running as it is and the others stop starting new blocks. Anything already running finishes as planned. You can still unblock, pause or delete any rule, except a rule in strict mode while it runs: that one stays as it is until it ends, always within 24 hours. Paying never lifts a strict block early.

What the app can and can’t do

On iPhone, Save Your Time uses Apple’s Screen Time frameworks. An iPhone always lets its owner turn off Screen Time access in Settings, so blocking can add friction but can’t be made impossible to remove. The app tells you when access has been turned off.

On Android, Save Your Time uses an accessibility service to see which app is in front, and in a browser which website, and covers a blocked one with its block screen. Android always lets the owner of a phone turn that service off in Settings, and Google Play doesn’t let an app stop it being turned off or the app being deleted, so strict mode holds inside the app only. The app tells you when the service is off.

The licence on Android

  • Better Things Oy gives you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable right to use Save Your Time on Android devices you own or control, as Google Play’s Terms of Service allow.
  • You may not copy, modify, rent, lend, sell or redistribute the app, or reverse engineer it except as the law allows.
  • If the app doesn’t work as described, you have the remedies under Your rights as a consumer.
  • The licence ends if you break these terms. You can end it any time by deleting the app; cancel the subscription in the Play Store as well.
  • Finnish law applies, without taking away the protection the law of the country you live in gives you as a consumer.

Your rights as a consumer

You keep every right consumer law gives you, on iPhone and on Android. Nothing on this page takes any of them away.

  • The app should work as this page and its store listing describe. If it doesn’t, tell us and we’ll put it right. If we can’t, you can have the price lowered, or end the subscription and get back what you paid for the time it fell short; the money comes back through Apple or Google Play, who took the payment.
  • If you live in the EU, you can withdraw from a purchase made online within 14 days, without giving a reason. For digital content or a service you ask to start at once, that right can end when it starts, if you agreed to that when you bought it. Apple lets you cancel an App Store order within 14 days of its receipt; Google Play’s refund policies say what it does.
  • For a withdrawal or a refund, ask the store you paid: Apple at reportaproblem.apple.com, Google Play through its refund page. You can always write to us as well.
  • If we disagree, tell us in writing first and we’ll try to put it right. If we still can’t agree, you can take the matter to the Finnish Consumer Disputes Board (Kuluttajariitalautakunta, kuluttajariita.fi), which takes complaints in Finnish or Swedish. Consumer Advisory Services (Kuluttajaneuvonta), or the European Consumer Centre if you live in another EU country, can help you before that. The Board’s decisions are recommendations, and you can also take the matter to court.
