Wako Terms of Service

Last updated: August 25, 2026
Contact: contact@wakoalarm.app

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your use of the Wako mobile application and related services at wakoalarm.app (collectively, the “Services”), operated by the Wako team (“we”, “us”, “our”).

By downloading, accessing, or using the Services, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Services.


1. The Services

Wako is an alarm clock app with optional wake-up missions (such as math problems, physical exercises, photo verification, and object hunts), streak tracking, insights, and optional cloud backup when you create an account.

We may update, modify, or discontinue features at any time. We will use reasonable efforts to avoid removing core alarm functionality without notice where practicable.


2. Eligibility

You must be at least 13 years old (or the minimum age required in your country) to use the Services. If you are under the age of majority where you live, you may use the Services only with permission from a parent or legal guardian who accepts these Terms on your behalf.


3. Accounts

  • You may use Wako without an account; alarms and data stay on your device.
  • If you sign in with Apple or Google, you are responsible for maintaining the security of your device and sign-in credentials.
  • You must provide accurate information and keep your account details up to date.
  • You may not impersonate others, share accounts, or use the Services for unlawful purposes.

You may delete your account at any time from Settings → Profile → Delete Account, or by emailing contact@wakoalarm.app. See our Privacy Policy for what is deleted.


4. Subscriptions and payments

Some features require a paid subscription or trial.

  • Purchases are processed by the Apple App Store or Google Play. Payment terms are between you and Apple or Google.
  • We use RevenueCat to check subscription status, restore purchases, and present paywalls. RevenueCat’s terms and privacy policy also apply to that processing.
  • Subscription pricing, renewal periods, and free trials are shown in the app before purchase.
  • Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
  • Manage or cancel subscriptions in your device’s App Store or Google Play subscription settings.
  • Deleting your Wako account does not cancel billing. Cancel your subscription separately to avoid future charges.
  • Refunds are handled by Apple or Google according to their policies. We do not control store refund decisions.

5. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

  • Use the Services in any way that violates applicable law or third-party rights
  • Attempt to reverse engineer, scrape, overload, or disrupt the Services
  • Upload harmful, illegal, or abusive content through missions or support channels
  • Circumvent subscription, mission, or security controls

We may suspend or terminate access if we reasonably believe you have violated these Terms.


6. Wake-up alarms and missions — important disclaimers

Wako is not a substitute for professional medical, safety, or emergency services.

  • Alarms and missions are provided “as is”. Device settings, battery level, Do Not Disturb, silent mode, operating system updates, or third-party restrictions may prevent an alarm from ringing or a mission from completing.
  • Always maintain a backup wake-up plan for work, travel, medical appointments, or other critical events.
  • Physical missions (push-ups, squats, jumping jacks) involve exercise. Consult a physician before starting any exercise program. Stop if you feel pain or discomfort. Use a safe space and follow your device’s camera safety guidance.
  • Photo missions use your camera. Only photograph objects and scenes you have the right to capture. Do not use the camera while driving or in unsafe situations.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for missed alarms, late wake-ups, injury during missions, or any loss arising from reliance on the Services.


7. Your content

Mission photos submitted for verification are processed transiently to confirm completion, as described in our Privacy Policy. You retain ownership of content you create. You grant us a limited license to process that content solely to operate and improve the Services (for example, verifying a mission in real time).


8. Intellectual property

The Wako app, name, logo, design, and content (excluding your data) are owned by us or our licensors and protected by intellectual property laws. These Terms do not grant you any right to use our trademarks or branding except as necessary to use the app in its normal course.


9. Third-party services

The Services integrate with third parties, including:

  • Supabase — accounts and cloud backup
  • Google — Sign-In, Gemini photo verification, and on-device ML Kit pose detection
  • Apple — Sign in with Apple, App Store billing, and in-app review
  • RevenueCat — subscriptions, entitlements, and paywalls (terms)
  • OneSignal — optional push notifications (terms)

Your use of those services may be subject to their separate terms and privacy policies. We are not responsible for third-party services outside our reasonable control.


10. Privacy

Our Privacy Policy explains how we collect and use personal information. By using the Services, you also agree to the Privacy Policy.


11. Termination

You may stop using the Services at any time by uninstalling the app and, if applicable, deleting your account.

We may suspend or terminate your access if you breach these Terms, if required by law, or if we discontinue the Services. Sections that by nature should survive (including disclaimers, limitation of liability, and governing law) will survive termination.


12. Disclaimer of warranties

THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.

We do not warrant that the Services will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that alarms will always ring on time.


13. Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, WE AND OUR AFFILIATES, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AND SUPPLIERS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, GOODWILL, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES.

OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICES OR THESE TERMS IS LIMITED TO THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US FOR THE SERVICES IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM, OR (B) FIFTY US DOLLARS (USD $50).

Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations; in those cases, our liability is limited to the maximum extent permitted by law.


14. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from claims, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from your misuse of the Services or violation of these Terms, except where prohibited by law.


15. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. We will post the revised version at wakoalarm.app/terms with a new “Last updated” date. Material changes may be communicated in the app or by email. Continued use after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.


16. Governing law and disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws applicable in the country where the operator of Wako is established, without regard to conflict-of-law rules, except where mandatory consumer protection laws in your country require otherwise.

If you are a consumer in the European Union or United Kingdom, you may also have the right to bring claims in your country of residence.
