Terms of Service

Last updated March 29, 2026

1. Acceptance of terms

By using Halves, you agree to these terms. If you don't agree, don't use the service.

2. What Halves is

A shared task manager built for two. Create a group, add tasks, assign them, get things done.

  • Tasks stored locally with optional iCloud backup
  • Anonymous session created automatically — no sign-up
  • Sign in with Apple only when pairing
  • Task titles and notes encrypted on-device (AES-256-GCM)
  • Private tasks are never shared with your partner or our servers
  • Natural language quick-add
  • Home Screen widgets via WidgetKit
  • Recurring tasks (daily, weekly, biweekly, monthly, yearly)
  • Up to 5 separate groups

3. Accounts and authentication

An anonymous Halves account is created when you open the app. No sign-up, no email, no passwords — just a random ID. Sign in with Apple is required only when pairing or upgrading that account. Optional display names and profile photos are part of your account data if you add them. You're responsible for your Apple ID and account activity.

4. Pricing

Free. No in-app purchases. If that changes, we'll let you know.

5. Changes to the app or terms

We may update these terms. Meaningful changes update the date below. Continued use means acceptance.

6. License and permitted use

A limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license for personal, non-commercial use. You may not:

  • Reverse-engineer, decompile, or copy our code
  • Redistribute, sell, or resell the app
  • Use the app for illegal or harmful purposes

7. Acceptable use

You agree not to use Halves to:

  • Harass, abuse, or threaten others
  • Engage in illegal activity
  • Attempt to hack, interfere with, or disrupt the app

8. Intellectual property

All rights in Halves belong to the developer. Using the app doesn't give you ownership of any part of it.

Your content (tasks, groups, notes) is yours. You authorize us to process the account, sync, notification, and diagnostic metadata needed to operate Halves, including account identifiers, optional display names or profile photos, device tokens, invite metadata, and diagnostics (off by default).

9. Data storage

Tasks are stored locally with optional iCloud backup. Shared task content is encrypted client-side before sync storage. Notification delivery uses generic placeholders. Server-side metadata can include account identifiers, optional display names or profile photos, device tokens, invite codes, and activity history needed to run the service. Private tasks are never sent to our servers or your partner. If iCloud backup is enabled, all local data including private tasks is included in your encrypted iCloud backup.

You're responsible for your backups and Apple ID security.

10. Third-party services

  • Supabase — authentication, group management, task sync, push notifications
  • Apple — Sign in with Apple, iCloud backup, APNs, WidgetKit

Subject to their respective terms and privacy policies.

11. Disclaimers

Halves is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind. Use at your own risk.

12. Limitation of liability

To the extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages. Total liability is limited to amounts paid in the last 12 months. Nothing here excludes liability for fraud, death, or personal injury caused by negligence.

13. Termination

Stop using Halves at any time. Use the in-app Delete Account flow if you want to permanently remove your Halves account data. We may suspend access if you violate these terms.

14. Governing law

Governed by Swedish law. Disputes resolved in Gothenburg, Sweden, unless law requires otherwise.
