Terms of Use
1. Acceptance of Terms
By downloading, installing, or using Tipling ("the App"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Use ("Terms"). If you do not agree, do not use the App.
These Terms form a legally binding agreement between you and Unattached Limited ("we," "us," or "our"), the developer of Tipling.
2. Description of Service
Tipling is a tip and income tracker for people who work for tips. You log your shifts, and a penguin waiter keeps a tip jar and a small café that grows as you keep logging.
- Log shifts, paychecks, and days off, including tips, hours, hourly wage, and optional details such as tip-out, sales, covers, mileage, and deliveries;
- Organize your logs by job, position, shift, and section;
- View a calendar, statistics, comparisons, and an estimate of where your month is heading;
- Plan upcoming shifts on a schedule, repeat them weekly, and optionally write them into a calendar on your device;
- Export your records as a spreadsheet (CSV) or a PDF income report;
- Earn in-app coins, stamps, and café decorations as you log;
- Optionally receive a daily reminder notification.
3. Eligibility
By using the App, you represent and warrant that:
- You have the legal capacity to enter into these Terms, or have your parent or guardian's consent to do so;
- You will use the App only for lawful purposes and in accordance with these Terms.
4. Your Records; Not Financial or Tax Advice
4.1 You Are Responsible for Your Records
Everything shown in Tipling is based on the numbers you enter. You are responsible for the accuracy and completeness of your entries and for checking any figure before relying on it.
4.2 Not Professional Advice
Totals, statistics, comparisons, and reports are provided for your convenience. "Take home" and similar figures are sums of what you logged; they are not after-tax amounts and are not a statement of your taxable income. Exported reports are self-reported records and may not be accepted as proof of income by a tax authority, employer, lender, or landlord. You remain responsible for meeting any reporting obligations that apply to you.
4.3 Estimates
Forecasts and "heading for" figures are estimates based on your past entries and your schedule. Actual results will differ, and we make no promise about your future earnings.
4.4 Your Data Lives on Your Device
Tipling stores your records on your device and does not keep a copy on our servers. If you delete the App, erase its data, or lose or replace your device without a backup, your records may be permanently lost and we cannot recover them. We recommend exporting your records regularly.
5. Purchases and Virtual Items
5.1 Paid Features
Logging, the café, statistics, and backups are free. "Tipling Pro" is an optional upgrade, offered as an auto-renewing subscription and/or a one-time purchase, that unlocks the schedule (including weekly repeats and calendar sync), comparisons, exporting your records as a PDF report or spreadsheet, more than two jobs, and more than one goal. Prices and what is included are shown in the App before you buy and may vary by region and over time. If a subscription ends, items you created with Pro features remain stored on your device but those features are locked until you subscribe again.
5.2 Auto-Renewal
You can manage or cancel a subscription at any time in your App Store account settings. Cancelling stops future renewals; the current paid period continues until it expires. Payment is charged to your Apple ID and managed by Apple; we do not process or store your payment details.
5.3 Coins, Stamps, and Café Items
The coins, stamps, sealed jars, and café decorations in Tipling are in-app rewards for logging. They are not money, have no monetary value, do not represent your actual earnings, are non-transferable, and cannot be exchanged for cash or anything of value.
5.4 Refunds
Purchases and subscriptions are processed by Apple. Refund requests are handled by Apple in accordance with App Store policies and applicable law.
6. Acceptable Conduct
You agree not to:
- Use the App for any unlawful purpose, including creating false or misleading income records to deceive another person or organization;
- Attempt to gain unauthorized access to our systems;
- Reverse engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract source code, except to the extent permitted by law;
- Circumvent purchase verification or usage limits;
- Transmit malware or interfere with the operation of the App.
7. Intellectual Property
The App and all associated software, artwork, character designs, graphics, logos, sounds, and functionality are owned by Unattached Limited or its licensors and protected by applicable law. You receive a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the App for your personal, non-commercial use. The records you enter remain yours.
8. Third-Party Services
Tipling relies on third-party services, including:
- Apple — app distribution, notifications and calendars on your device, and billing for purchases;
- RevenueCat — subscription and purchase-entitlement management;
- Supabase and Slack — store and deliver the feedback and messages you choose to send us.
When you export or share a file, or sync your schedule to a calendar, the data is handed to the app or service you choose (for example Files, Mail, a cloud drive, or a calendar account such as iCloud or Google), which is governed by its own terms and privacy policy. Calendar sync is one-way and provided for convenience; we do not guarantee that events or alerts will always appear, so do not rely on it as your only record of when you work. See our Privacy Policy for details.
9. Disclaimer of Warranties
We do not guarantee uninterrupted service, error-free operation, that calculations or reports will be free of mistakes, that your data will never be lost, or that the App will meet your expectations.
10. Limitation of Liability
Our total liability arising from or related to the App shall not exceed the greater of the amount you paid to us in the twelve (12) months preceding the claim or the minimum amount required by applicable law. Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law.
11. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Unattached Limited and its affiliates from any claims, damages, liabilities, and expenses arising from your use of the App or your violation of these Terms or any third-party rights.
12. Termination
You may stop using the App at any time by deleting it. We may suspend or end your access to paid features or to the App, with or without notice, including for violation of these Terms.
- Your right to use the App will cease immediately;
- Provisions that by their nature should survive (including Sections 4 and 7–11) will survive;
- In-app rewards may be forfeited upon termination for cause, to the extent permitted by law.
13. Changes to Terms
We may update these Terms by revising the Effective Date above and providing notice where appropriate. Continued use of the App after updates means you accept the revised Terms.
14. Governing Law
These Terms are governed by applicable law. Disputes shall first be addressed through good-faith negotiation and, where required, resolved through arbitration or the competent courts.
