License

The App is licensed, not sold, to you through the Apple App Store under Apple's standard Licensed Application End User License Agreement, which applies in addition to these Terms. Apple is not responsible for the App or its content.

Emphasis Pro

Emphasis Pro is an optional auto-renewing yearly subscription sold and billed by Apple. The price is shown in the App before purchase and may vary by region. Your subscription renews automatically unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period in your iPhone Settings. Refunds are handled by Apple under its policies.

Beta releases

Builds distributed through TestFlight are pre-release software. Features, limits, and data may change or be reset before the App Store release.

Collecting plants and driving sessions

Collecting a plant requires being physically within range of it. You are responsible for obeying traffic laws, respecting private property and posted restrictions, and keeping your attention on the road. Never operate the App while driving; the driving session is designed to be started before you drive and to work without touching the phone.
