Whimscale Terms of Service

Effective date: 2026-06-22 · Last updated: 2026-06-22

The short version. Whimscale is a just-for-fun app. The comparisons are playful estimates, not advice. There is one optional purchase: a single one-time unlock - not a subscription. Everything runs on your iPhone.

1. Acceptance

By downloading or using Whimscale, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the app. Whimscale is published by an independent iOS developer (Apple Developer Team ID ZM8LF8494F).

2. What Whimscale is

Whimscale is an entertainment app. You enter a few numbers about yourself and the app turns them into playful, shareable comparison cards across a set of "lenses." Every comparison is a fun estimate produced by simple on-device arithmetic. Whimscale is not a calculator, a tracker, or an advice tool of any kind.

3. Not advice

Nothing in Whimscale is financial, medical, legal, fitness, or professional advice, and nothing in it should be relied on for any decision. The money lenses (for example, "your time is worth X") are for fun, not financial advice, and connect to no bank or financial account. The heartbeat, breathing, and lifetime lenses are playful estimates, not measurements; the app never reads real health data and never uses HealthKit. The app uses no "time left to live" or lifespan framing.

4. The free app and the one-time unlock

Whimscale is free to use with about ten lenses across all six categories, including full comparison-card sharing and the daily widget. A single optional in-app purchase - the Whimscale Unlock - opens the rest, for 44 lenses in total. It is a one-time, non-consumable purchase: you pay once and keep it, on every device signed in to the same Apple ID. It is not a subscription; nothing renews, recurs, or expires, and there is no free trial. Purchases are processed by Apple through StoreKit; Whimscale never sees your payment details. A Restore Purchases option is provided in the app.

5. What the unlock includes

6. Refunds

All purchases are handled by Apple. Refund requests are governed by Apple's policies and are made through Apple, not through the developer.

7. Your content and your device

The numbers you enter and the cards you generate live on your device. You are responsible for your own device backups. Deleting the app deletes its data; there is no remote copy.

8. Acceptable use

Use Whimscale for your own personal amusement. Do not attempt to reverse engineer, resell, or misrepresent the app, and do not present its playful estimates as factual measurements or professional advice to others.

9. Disclaimer of warranties

Whimscale is provided "as is," without warranties of any kind, to the fullest extent permitted by law. The comparisons are approximate and for fun; the developer does not warrant that any figure is accurate, complete, or fit for any purpose.

10. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the developer is not liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of Whimscale. Because the app is a novelty toy that gives you no advice, you should not rely on it for any decision.

11. Apple standard EULA

Unless you have signed a separate written agreement, your license to use Whimscale is also governed by Apple's standard Licensed Application End User License Agreement (the "Standard EULA"), available at apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula. Where these Terms and the Standard EULA differ, the more protective term for the user applies.

12. Changes

We may update these Terms as the app evolves. Material changes will be reflected in the app and by the "Last updated" date above. Continued use after a change means you accept the updated Terms.
