By downloading or using Improvory (the "App"), you agree to these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, do not use the App. The App is published by an independent iOS developer (Apple Developer Team ID ZM8LF8494F); references to "we," "us," and "our" mean that developer.
Improvory is a personal recordkeeping tool for homeowners. You enter information about your home and about each improvement you make to it. The App organizes that information into a timeline, groups improvements by IRS Publication 523 category, sums the dollar amounts you enter (by category and overall), provides plain-English reference content, optionally adds reminder dates to your iPhone Calendar, and generates a Capital Improvements Summary PDF for your own use.
The App is free to download and use, with the following limits: 1 home, up to 8 improvements, and a preview of the improvement-vs-repair reference. App Lock is included free for all users.
Pro features unlock when you start the Pro subscription or complete the Lifetime purchase. Two products are offered:
Both products unlock the identical Pro feature set. Prices shown are USD; Apple displays the equivalent local price at purchase time. There is no monthly product.
The Annual subscription automatically renews until canceled. Renewal is charged within 24 hours before the end of the current period unless auto-renewal is turned off at least 24 hours before that end. Payment is charged to your Apple ID. You can manage and cancel your subscription in Settings > [your name] > Subscriptions on your iOS device. Refund requests for App Store purchases are handled by Apple under its policies and applicable law; non-waivable consumer rights remain available. The Lifetime purchase is a single charge with no recurring billing.
An introductory free trial is available only when Apple confirms eligibility for the subscription group and an applicable offer exists. The updated paywall checks eligibility before presenting trial benefits; unknown or ineligible accounts use ordinary subscription language. Apple’s purchase sheet confirms the actual duration, localized price and billing period before payment. Unless canceled at least 24 hours before the trial ends, the subscription converts to the displayed paid plan. Trial access may end when canceled and follows Apple’s verified expiry or revocation. Older installed app versions may display earlier offer wording until updated. Buying Lifetime does not cancel a separate subscription or trial; manage that subscription through Apple.
Pro provides the following features. The behavior described here is binding on us — if a future App update materially changes any of these descriptions, we will revise this section.
App Lock is a Free feature that uses Apple's LocalAuthentication framework (Face ID, Touch ID, or device passcode) to gate access to the App. Biometric data never leaves Apple's Secure Enclave; the App receives only a success/failure result. App Lock can be enabled or disabled in Settings > Privacy at any time.
The App is provided "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, or non-infringement. To the maximum extent permitted by law, our aggregate liability arising out of or relating to the App is limited to the amount you paid us, through Apple, for the App in the twelve months preceding the claim. We are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including lost data, missed warranty or permit deadlines, tax outcomes, or any financial result. Reference content and totals are tools for your use; we do not guarantee that any tax professional, the IRS, or a court will accept or be bound by them.
Your use of the App is also governed by Apple's standard End User License Agreement (EULA) for licensed applications, available at https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/. In the event of a conflict between these Terms and the Apple EULA, these Terms govern as between you and us; the Apple EULA governs as between you and Apple.
All product, organization, and agency names referenced in the App and in this document — including but not limited to the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and IRS Publication 523 — belong to their respective holders. Improvory is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to any listed entity.
We may update these Terms from time to time. Material changes will be surfaced in the App on next launch. Continued use of the App after a change constitutes acceptance.
These Terms are governed by the laws of the United States and the State of California, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Disputes will be resolved in courts located in California, except that either party may seek injunctive relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to protect intellectual property rights.

The updated App pauses the normal record interface if its persistent database cannot be opened and only a temporary in-memory store is available. New recording and editing through that interface are blocked. The App keeps the existing database and attachment files rather than treating the temporary empty store as your archive. Database-dependent startup work in that interface is paused; previously scheduled reminders, widget snapshots or independent copies may remain.
Check available device storage, close and reopen the App, and contact support before deleting or reinstalling it. This recovery screen is not a backup, a repair guarantee or an automatic restoration of missing records. Older installed versions may behave differently until updated; publishing this document does not update an installed App.
The updated App checks home setup, home creation and improvement saves before completing setup, closing their forms or changing the selected home. Failed form saves keep current entries on the open page for retry; these values are not durable drafts and may be lost when the page or App closes. Failed improvement deletion keeps the original record, amounts, receipt-location note and home association. Notification cancellation and widget refresh associated with a deletion follow successful persistence. Warranty reminders associated with a save also follow successful persistence; previously created Calendar events remain independent and require separate management. Canceling a new form does not globally discard unrelated pending edits. Only structured records and receipt-location text are stored; this change does not add receipt-file storage, an archive import, or a Recently Deleted recovery feature.
These changes require the updated App binary. Publishing this document does not update an older installed version.
