Terms of Use
Last updated: 6 October 2026
The short version: Verdling is a personal tool for keeping your own houseplant care records. It is provided as is and is not botanical, horticultural or plant-health advice. Your data stays on your device and is yours. Verdling Pro is an optional one-time purchase billed by the app store you installed from.
1. Agreement to these terms
These Terms of Use (“Terms”) are an agreement between you and Trueframe Digital (“we”, “us”) for the Verdling application and its content (“the app”). By downloading, installing or using the app you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the app.
2. Licence
We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to install and use the app on devices you own or control, for your own personal, non-commercial use. Your use is also subject to the rules of the store you obtained the app from: the Apple App Store or Google Play. The app is licensed, not sold.
3. Not horticultural advice
Verdling is a care tracker. It helps you keep your houseplants’ care schedules, reminders, photo timelines and propagation records, and includes a reference guide for common species. It does not provide botanical, horticultural or plant-health advice. Suggested schedules are a starting point, not a substitute for checking your plant and its soil. Light meter readings are approximate and depend on your device. The care guide, including its toxicity labels, is general reference information and is not a diagnosis; if a person or pet may have eaten a plant, contact a doctor, a vet or a poison information service. Verdling is not a plant identification service. You are responsible for your plants’ care.
4. Your data is yours
Verdling is local-first: the information you enter stays on your device, as described in our Privacy Policy. Because of this, you are responsible for your own data, including keeping your own backups. We have no account system and no copy of your data, so we cannot recover it for you. Deleting a record or removing the app from your device erases the data stored there.
5. Verdling Pro & purchases
Core care tracking is free. Some features are part of Verdling Pro, an optional one-time purchase (not a subscription):
- The purchase is made and billed through the app store you installed from (Apple or Google). We never see or store your payment details.
- It is a single payment: there is nothing to renew and nothing to cancel.
- Your purchase unlocks Pro for the store account you bought it with; you can restore it on your other devices that use that same store account. A purchase on one store does not unlock Pro on the other.
- The price is shown in the app before you buy. Prices may vary by region and may change over time; a change does not affect a purchase you have already made.
- If a purchase is refunded, Pro features stop. Your plants and records stay on your device, and backup and CSV or JSON export stay free.
- Refunds are handled by the app store under its own policies, not by us.
6. Acceptable use
You agree not to copy (except as the app normally allows), modify, reverse-engineer, decompile or attempt to extract the source code of the app except to the extent that restriction is prohibited by law; not to rent, lease, resell or redistribute it; and not to use it for any unlawful purpose.
7. Intellectual property
The app, its design, and the “Verdling” and “Trueframe Digital” names and marks are owned by Trueframe Digital and protected by law. These Terms do not transfer any of those rights to you. The content you enter remains yours.
8. No warranty
The app is provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, to the fullest extent permitted by law, including any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, or non-infringement. We do not warrant that the app will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that any figure it shows is accurate.
9. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Trueframe Digital will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special or consequential damages, or for any loss of data, arising out of or relating to your use of or reliance on the app. Nothing in these Terms limits any liability that cannot be limited under applicable law.
10. Apple App Store
If you obtained the app from the Apple App Store, the following also applies: these Terms are between you and Trueframe Digital only, and not with Apple. Apple has no obligation to provide any maintenance or support for the app. Apple is not responsible for the app or any claims relating to it, including product-liability, legal or regulatory, or intellectual-property claims, or any failure to meet a legal requirement. Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and may enforce them against you.
11. Changes
We may update the app and these Terms from time to time. When we change these Terms we will update this page and the “last updated” date above. Continuing to use the app after a change means you accept the updated Terms.
12. Contact
These Terms are provided by Trueframe Digital, Melbourne, Australia. Any questions about these Terms, or any questions, complaints or claims about the app, can be directed to [email protected].
