2. Description of Service
Pocket Clear is a personal expense tracking application that allows you to:
- Record income and expenses
- Organize transactions by category
- View spending reports and charts
- Optionally sync data to the cloud (Pro feature)
- Set budgets for spending categories (Pro feature)
3. User Accounts
To use Pocket Clear, you must create an account. You agree to:
- Provide accurate and complete information
- Maintain the security of your account
- Accept responsibility for all activities under your account
- Notify us immediately of any unauthorized use
4. Free, Pro, and Lifetime Plans
Pocket Clear offers the following plans:
- Free Plan: Unlimited local expense tracking, custom categories, reports, and themes.
- Pro Plan ($4.99/month): All Free features plus cloud backup, cross-device sync, and budgeting tools.
- Pro Lifetime Plan (one-time payment): All Pro features for the lifetime of the product, with no subscription and no auto-renewal. Full details, including activation and refund terms, are on the Pro Lifetime Plan page, which forms part of these Terms.
5. Subscriptions and Payments
Monthly Pro subscription:
- Pro subscriptions are billed monthly through the Apple App Store or Google Play.
- Subscriptions automatically renew unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
- You can manage your subscription in your App Store or Google Play account settings.
- Refunds for monthly subscriptions are handled according to Apple's or Google's refund policy.
Pro Lifetime Plan:
- The Lifetime plan is a one-time purchase made on our website. It does not auto-renew, and there is nothing to cancel.
- Payments are processed by Dodo Payments, which acts as the Merchant of Record for the purchase and collects and remits any applicable sales tax, VAT, or GST.
- You may request a full refund within 14 days of purchase, for any reason. After 14 days the purchase is non-refundable, except that if we ever permanently discontinue Pro we will refund you on a pro-rated basis: the amount paid minus US$4.99 for each whole month since purchase, never exceeding the amount you paid.
- "Lifetime" means for the lifetime of the Pocket Clear Pro product. Any future higher-tier plans (for example, a "Premium" tier) are optional and priced separately, and we will not move features that are part of Pro on your purchase date behind a separate paid tier. See the Pro Lifetime Plan page for full terms.
