TERMS OF SERVICE
Last updated: October 24, 2026
Scope: The Water Reminder iOS app, beginning with version 1.1.0. The current annual membership and ad-free experience are described below; eligible historical purchases are addressed in Section 5.
1. ABOUT THESE TERMS
Water Reminder: Sip Companion is operated by Shenzhen Jianyue Life Technology Co., Ltd. (English rendering of the registered company name), trading as SimpleLife ("we", "us" or "our").
Registered address: Room 201F3, Haifa Building, No. 393 Jihua Road, Shuijing Community, Jihua Subdistrict, Longgang District, Shenzhen, Guangdong, China.
Support contact: simplelife1024@163.com
These terms describe the app's services, membership and subscriptions. Read them before using paid features or purchasing membership. Users must meet applicable age requirements and those shown in the App Store listing. If you cannot legally agree on your own, a parent or legal guardian must be involved where the law allows and requires it; otherwise, do not use the service.
The software license for an app obtained through the App Store is governed by the end user license agreement applicable there. Where we have not supplied a custom agreement, Apple's Standard EULA applies: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
These terms supplement that license with service and subscription information. They do not replace Apple's purchase rules, a legally required consent or system permission, or mandatory consumer rights.
2. WHAT THE APP DOES AND ITS HEALTH LIMITATIONS
The app provides drink and beverage recording, adjustable hydration goals, reminders based on times and weekdays, history and statistics, pet progress and rewards, Home Screen widgets and optional weight management. You can choose amounts, dates, times, units, beverages and relevant preferences. Available features depend on your device, iOS version, permissions and membership.
Hydration values are estimates calculated from entered drink amounts and beverage coefficients. They do not measure how much water your body absorbs. A suggested daily goal uses app calculations and the profile information you provide; it can be adjusted and is not a medical prescription or a required amount to consume. Weight trends and BMI are calculated or displayed from entries and are for general reference.
The app does not measure health information through device sensors, read or write Apple Health records, or provide diagnosis, treatment, prescriptions, emergency monitoring or professional medical advice. It is not presented as a regulated medical device. Do not make treatment or medication decisions, or change a clinician's fluid restrictions, based only on the app.
Hydration needs vary. Children, pregnant or breastfeeding people, and people with conditions that affect fluid intake should follow qualified professional advice rather than automatically applying a general goal. Consult a qualified healthcare professional about symptoms or health decisions. If you believe you are experiencing a medical emergency, contact your local emergency service.
3. RECORDS, REMINDERS AND RESPONSIBLE USE
Check the amounts, beverage coefficients, dates, times, units, profile entries and reminder schedules you enter. Charts, estimates, goals and rewards depend on those entries and do not verify that you actually consumed a drink. Recording an entry or reaching a goal is not a recommendation to consume more fluid.
Drink reminders continue according to the enabled time and weekday rules even after the daily goal is reached. A reminder is an invitation to consider your needs, rather than an instruction to drink every time. You can change the schedule, turn drink reminders off or select silent mode. Weight reminders follow their separate enable setting and configured time.
Notifications depend on authorization, preview and sound settings, Focus, device state and operating-system behavior. They are a convenience and must not be your only way to remember essential care. A normal notification tap opens the relevant app page without automatically saving a record. Choosing an explicit drink-recording action in an expanded notification may add an entry; choosing snooze requests another local reminder. Review records created through quick actions and correct them when needed.
You do not need an independent account with us. Protect your device and Apple Account. Only enter or share someone else's information with the authority and consent required by law. Do not infringe privacy or other rights, interfere with the service, obtain unauthorized access, distribute unlawful material, commit fraud or bypass legitimate purchase verification. These restrictions do not prohibit activities expressly permitted by applicable law.
4. AD-FREE EXPERIENCE AND MEMBERSHIP BENEFITS
The current iOS app is ad-free for all users. Removing advertising is not a membership-only benefit and does not require a subscription. The app does not integrate third-party app-usage analytics SDKs or advertising tracking in this version.
Basic drink recording, supported history, reminders and pet features are available without membership. An eligible membership unlocks additional and custom beverages, premium Home Screen widgets and weight management with trends and BMI reference information. Check the purchase screen for the exact benefits and any conditions before buying. Membership does not include health-record cloud storage, medical services or membership in another app.
We will not treat a wording update alone as permission to remove core benefits already promised for an unexpired paid period, subject to applicable law and the relevant purchase terms.
5. ANNUAL SUBSCRIPTIONS AND HISTORICAL PURCHASES
The current purchase screen offers an auto-renewing annual membership. Its subscription period is one year. Apple processes payment through your Apple Account. The full local price, currency and any eligible offer appear in the app and Apple's purchase confirmation. Prices may differ by country or region; check the displayed terms before confirming. We do not receive your Apple Account password, full payment card details or payment verification codes.
Unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the current period ends, the subscription renews automatically under Apple's rules. Renewal is charged to your Apple Account within 24 hours before the period ends. Price changes, billing problems and any required price-change consent follow Apple's applicable rules and mandatory local protections.
If a free trial or introductory offer is available, eligibility, duration and the full price after the offer are shown before purchase. Unless canceled in time under the applicable offer terms, the subscription renews at the price shown after the offer. Not every user is eligible. Follow the cancellation deadline shown for your offer.
Valid historical lifetime, monthly, quarterly or annual membership purchases remain subject to verification of the corresponding Apple transactions. A verified lifetime purchase does not expire merely because the current purchase screen offers an annual subscription. A historical time-limited purchase remains valid for its verified period and does not become lifetime access because of an old local membership marker. Historical non-renewing purchases do not automatically become auto-renewing subscriptions.
Access depends on verified validity, including applicable expiration, refund, revocation and billing-grace information. A billing retry does not by itself guarantee access after entitlement expiry. Family Sharing is available only where enabled for the product and supported by Apple's rules. We do not promise it is enabled for every product.
Making the current app ad-free does not automatically cancel an existing subscription, change it into another product or eliminate other eligible paid benefits. Membership applies to this app and does not automatically unlock another app's paid features.
6. CANCELING, RESTORING AND REFUNDS
Manage or cancel a subscription in iPhone or iPad Settings > your name > Subscriptions > this app's subscription. Follow Apple's current instructions if the menus change. Deleting the app, stopping use, deleting records or changing devices does not cancel a subscription.
Cancellation normally stops future renewals while access continues for the remaining paid period, subject to refunds, revocation and applicable trial terms. Your Apple subscription settings show the current billing and expiration information.
Use Restore Purchases on the membership screen with the Apple Account associated with an eligible purchase to restore valid access after reinstalling or changing devices. Restoring does not create a new purchase and does not restore an expired, refunded or revoked entitlement. It restores membership only, not drink records, weight records, pet progress or other local app data. Membership expiry does not itself delete existing records, although access to paid features depends on valid membership.
You can request an Apple purchase refund at https://reportaproblem.apple.com/. Apple determines eligibility under its rules and applicable law. Canceling renewal does not itself refund previous charges. Contact us if paid benefits were not delivered or access appears incorrect. Nothing in these terms removes statutory remedies or refund rights that apply to you.
7. PRIVACY, LOCAL RECORDS AND THIRD-PARTY SERVICES
The Privacy Policy linked from the app explains local records, widget storage, notifications, purchases, website visits and support information. This version does not offer health-record cloud synchronization, iCloud recovery, dedicated record import or export, or a full-file backup function. The app marks its health-record directories and relevant preferences as excluded from system backups using iOS mechanisms.
The upgrade process is designed to preserve existing local records. However, deleting or erasing the app's data, device loss or failure, or changing devices can make records unavailable. We do not keep a server copy from which to restore them. Keep an independent copy of important information before uninstalling or changing devices. Do not rely on iCloud device backup or Restore Purchases to recover local health records. This version cannot erase older backups or copies you have already created elsewhere.
The app's Share option recommends the app without attaching saved health records by default. Before independently sharing a screenshot or sending support information, review its content and destination. Apple services, external websites, email and sharing destinations have their own terms and privacy rules. Their involvement does not grant general access to your saved health records.
8. OWNERSHIP, CHANGES AND AVAILABILITY
You retain the rights you have in your entries. The app's software, branding and original content belong to us or the relevant rights holders. Third-party and open-source materials remain subject to applicable licenses. No ownership of your health records is transferred merely because you use the app.
We may update the app, correct errors or change features for product, technical or legal reasons. Some changes require a newer operating system or device capability. We will provide notice where required and respect applicable obligations concerning paid access, user records and consumer remedies. We do not promise uninterrupted availability of every feature or external service.
If a service is discontinued, we will provide any notice, data-access opportunity or other remedy required by applicable law. A service change does not by itself eliminate obligations concerning purchases already made.
9. RESPONSIBILITY AND YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS
Use the app with the limitations described here. We are responsible for our service as required by applicable law. The treatment of loss involving incorrect entries, network failures, device problems or third-party services depends on the facts and applicable law; these terms do not impose a blanket exclusion of liability or make you bear every risk.
Nothing in these terms excludes or limits liability, warranties or consumer rights that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited, including rights concerning digital content, paid services or personal injury where applicable.
10. CHANGES TO THESE TERMS, CONTACT AND DISPUTES
We may update these terms when the service or legal requirements change and will show the updated date. Material changes will be communicated through an appropriate notice where required. Changes do not retroactively remove mandatory rights or obligations relating to an existing purchase. We will seek additional agreement where applicable law requires it.
Contact simplelife1024@163.com about these terms, membership or service problems. Do not email passwords, verification codes or full payment card details. Provide health information only where needed to address your request.
The operator is established in mainland China. The laws of the People's Republic of China apply to these terms to the extent permitted by applicable law, without depriving you of mandatory protections or forum rights available under the laws of your usual place of residence. We encourage you to contact us first to try to resolve a concern. Unresolved disputes may be brought before a court with jurisdiction under applicable law. These terms do not impose mandatory arbitration or waive rights that cannot lawfully be waived.
