Terms of Use

Effective date: July 22, 2026

These Terms of Use ("Terms") govern your use of the Latch mobile application ("Latch", "the app", "we", "us"). By downloading or using Latch, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the app.

1. What Latch does

Latch is a personal, self-imposed app-locker. You choose your own apps and restrict your own access to them for periods you set in advance, using your device's built-in Screen Time (iOS) or usage-access and overlay features (Android). Latch is a tool for your own digital wellbeing; it is not a parental-control or monitoring product.

Latch adds friction to impulsive choices. It cannot guarantee that an app stays blocked in every situation — on Android in particular, force-stopping Latch or an aggressive battery optimizer can end enforcement. Latch is a commitment aid, not a security control.

2. Subscriptions (Latch Pro)

Free tier: your first latch is free. This is a permanently free tier, not a time-limited free trial.
Latch Pro unlocks unlimited latches, all lock types, all typing-test levels, Locked mode, and a customizable shield. It is offered as an auto-renewing subscription at $3.99 per month or $24.99 per year (prices may vary by region and are shown at purchase).
Auto-renewal: a subscription renews automatically at the end of each period unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the period ends. Your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours before the end of the current period.
Management & cancellation: manage or cancel your subscription in your Apple App Store account settings (iOS) or your Google Play account settings (Android). Deleting the app does not cancel a subscription.
Payment is processed by Apple or Google and managed through RevenueCat; we never receive or store your payment details.
Refunds are handled by Apple or Google under their respective policies. We do not process payments directly and cannot issue refunds ourselves.

3. Acceptable use

Use Latch only for restricting your own apps on your own device. Do not attempt to use it to control or monitor another person's device.

4. Disclaimer of warranties

Latch is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including fitness for a particular purpose. We do not warrant that enforcement will be uninterrupted or effective in every circumstance.

5. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Latch and its makers are not liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of, or inability to use, the app — including any consequence of an app being blocked or not blocked.

6. Changes

We may update these Terms from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by an updated effective date on this page. Continued use after a change constitutes acceptance.
