Terms of Service

Last Updated: January 25, 2026

Rewired ("the App") and the website located at therewired.app ("the Website") (collectively, the "Service") are provided to help users master their focus and reduce digital distractions. By accessing or using the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, you are not authorized to use the Service.

1. Trader Information (Digital Services Act)

In accordance with the EU Digital Services Act (DSA), we provide the following verified trader information:

Business Name: Rewired

Operator: Darya Kostyuchek

Address: 11 Salem Ln, Horsham, PA 19044, USA

Email: info@therewired.app

Phone: +1 609-614-0298

2. Description of the Service

Rewired provides tools to reduce screen time through a gamified "Protocol." This includes tracking focus sessions, awarding "Brain Tokens," and utilizing Apple's Screen Time API to physically block distracting applications. We reserve the right to update, change, or discontinue any aspect of the Service at any time.

3. Eligibility and Age Compliance

You must be at least 13 years old to use the Service. By using Rewired, you represent that you have the legal capacity to enter into a binding agreement and that you are not barred from receiving services under the laws of the United States or other applicable jurisdictions.

In compliance with state laws in Texas, Utah, Louisiana, and other jurisdictions requiring age verification for certain digital services, Rewired integrates with Apple's Declared Age Range API to verify user eligibility. This system confirms age compliance using information declared in your Apple ID account without requiring additional personal data collection.

4. Registration and Security

To use the App, you must create an account via Sign in with Apple. You are responsible for:

  • Maintaining the confidentiality of your account.
  • All activities that occur under your account.
  • Notifying us immediately at info@therewired.app of any unauthorized use.

5. The Rewired Protocol (App Functionality)

Screen Time API

Rewired uses Apple's ManagedSettings, FamilyControls, and DeviceActivity frameworks to enforce app limits. You acknowledge that Rewired receives only opaque tokens from Apple's system and cannot see your private usage statistics, which apps you select, or any personal content. The blocking is enforced entirely by iOS on your device.

Brain Tokens

Tokens earned in the app have no cash value, are non-transferable, and are intended solely for motivational purposes within the Rewired ecosystem.

AI-Powered Habit Verification

Rewired offers an optional photo verification feature for certain habits. When you use this feature, you take a photo which is analyzed by OpenAI's Vision API to verify habit completion (e.g., confirming you are outdoors).

  • No Storage: Photos are processed in real-time and immediately discarded. We do not store or view your verification photos.
  • Third-Party Processing: By using this feature, you consent to your photos being transmitted to OpenAI for analysis. OpenAI's API usage policies apply to this processing.
  • Verification Results: The AI provides a verification result only. We are not responsible for incorrect verifications, and you may always choose not to use this optional feature.

IMPORTANT: Emergency Access Warning

YOU ARE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE for ensuring that essential apps such as Phone, Messages, and any emergency services remain accessible while using Rewired's blocking features. Before activating the "Shield" (app blocking), you must add critical communication apps to your "Always Allowed" list via the App settings or iOS Settings > Screen Time > Always Allowed.

Rewired is not liable for any missed calls, messages, emergency alerts, or other critical communications that occur while app blocking is active. Use this feature responsibly.

Liability Disclaimer

Rewired is a productivity tool. We are not responsible for any missed notifications, messages, or calls that occur while the "Shield" (app blocking) is active.

6. Subscriptions and Payments

Rewired requires a paid subscription for full access to the Protocol.

  • Billing: Payment processing and subscription management are handled through Apple's In-App Purchase system. We do not store your credit card information on our servers. Subscriptions auto-renew unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
  • Management: You must manage or cancel your subscription through your Apple ID Settings. Deleting the App or your Rewired account does not automatically cancel your App Store subscription.
  • Refunds: Refund requests are governed by Apple's refund policies. Rewired does not process refunds directly.

7. EU Right of Withdrawal

If you are a consumer residing in the European Union, you have the right to withdraw from your subscription purchase within 14 days without giving any reason.

Withdrawal Period: 14 days from the date of purchase.

How to Exercise: Since all purchases are processed through the Apple App Store, withdrawal requests must be submitted directly to Apple. You can request a refund through your Apple ID purchase history or by contacting Apple Support.

Effect of Withdrawal: Upon successful withdrawal through Apple, you will receive a full refund of the subscription amount. Access to premium features will be revoked upon processing of the refund.

Exception: If you have expressly consented to beginning the service immediately and acknowledged that you lose your right of withdrawal once the digital content has been fully provided, the right of withdrawal may not apply. By starting a subscription and using premium features, you acknowledge this consent.

8. Acceptable Use

You agree not to:

  • Use the Service for any unlawful purposes.
  • Attempt to reverse-engineer, decompile, or bypass the App's blocking logic.
  • Use any automated scripts to manipulate "Brain Token" counts.

9. Intellectual Property

All content, designs, and proprietary logic within the Service are owned by Rewired. We grant you a limited, non-transferable, revocable license to use the App on your personal iOS devices.

10. No Warranties

The Service is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind. We do not guarantee that the App will be error-free or that the app-blocking will be 100% effective against all system workarounds. You use the Service at your own risk.

11. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Rewired and its developers shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the App, including but not limited to loss of data, business interruption, or missed communications while app blocking is active.

12. Governing Law

These Terms shall be governed by the laws of the United States and the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, without regard to conflict of law provisions. For EU consumers, mandatory consumer protection laws of your country of residence shall apply to the extent they provide greater protection. Any disputes will be resolved in the appropriate courts of that jurisdiction.

13. Termination

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your access to the Service at any time, without notice, for conduct that we believe violates these Terms or is harmful to other users or the Service itself.

14. Medical and Wellness Disclaimer

Rewired is designed for informational and self-improvement purposes only. The App is a productivity and digital wellness tool intended to help you build better habits and reduce screen time.

Rewired is not a medical or therapeutic device and should not be used as a substitute for professional mental health treatment, addiction counseling, or medical advice. If you are experiencing mental health challenges, addiction issues, or other health concerns, please consult a qualified healthcare professional.
