Terms of Use
Last updated:
Notify saves the notifications your automation forwards. Capture depends on your setup and iOS. Premium access, the introductory trial, and your controls are explained below.
1. Using Notify
These Terms of Use apply to the Notify iOS app and its related services, provided by the developer identified on Notify’s App Store listing. By using Notify, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, do not use the service.
These terms describe the Notify service. Your app license is also subject to the applicable App Store license agreement, including Apple’s Standard End User License Agreement where it applies. Mandatory consumer protections and any rights that cannot lawfully be waived are preserved.
2. What Notify does
Notify archives notification fields forwarded to it by Shortcuts automations that you add, configure, and enable. You choose the originating apps. Records may include the app name, notification title, subtitle, message, and capture time. Notify can group records, display local statistics, and provide deletion, retention, and optional passcode controls.
Core notification-automation functionality requires iOS 27 or later and a compatible, correctly configured Shortcuts automation, even where the app itself can be installed on an earlier supported iOS version. An internet connection and successful technical registration are required when the app launches. Trial and purchase verification depend on our server; notification reminders and connection tests depend on notification permission.
Notify does not log in to third-party messaging accounts or retrieve messages directly from their servers. It is not a replacement for those services or a complete backup of your conversations.
3. Capture and availability limitations
We cannot guarantee that every message, call, attachment, or notification will be captured. Capture depends on iOS, notification delivery and preview settings, the originating app, your selected automation, and device conditions. An automation that is disabled, removed, or incorrectly configured may stop forwarding notifications.
Notify cannot recover content that was never forwarded and saved. A message being changed or deleted in another app does not guarantee either its capture or its removal from a record already stored in Notify. Connection indicators reflect recent received records or test responses; they do not guarantee complete or continuous capture.
Keep your configuration current and check it after system or app updates. Do not rely on Notify as your only record of critical information. Features may change as platform capabilities and service requirements evolve.
4. The introductory trial and record access
Notify currently provides an introductory 24-hour usage period after setup is completed. Trial start and end times are assigned by our server. This app-level trial does not itself enroll you in an App Store subscription or authorize a purchase.
After the introductory period, viewing newly captured records requires active Premium access. Records eligible for access from the trial period remain available, and local deletion and retention controls continue to apply. Notification capture may continue while newer records are locked, so that eligible stored records can be viewed if Premium access becomes active.
If a paid subscription ends and the introductory period has already expired, Premium-dependent access is restricted again. Deleting local data or reinstalling the app does not necessarily create a new trial. The availability of records remains subject to your retention settings and any deletion you perform.
5. Premium subscriptions, billing, and cancellation
Available plans, features, billing periods, prices, currency, and any applicable offer are displayed in the app and in Apple’s purchase confirmation. The price confirmed by Apple applies; this page does not set a fixed subscription price.
Purchases are processed by Apple using your Apple Account. Recurring plans renew automatically until cancelled under Apple’s billing rules. To prevent the next renewal, cancel in advance; Apple’s terms may require cancellation at least 24 hours before the relevant period ends. Cancelling normally stops future renewals rather than immediately ending the access already paid for, subject to refunds or other entitlement changes.
You can manage a subscription on your iPhone in Settings under your Apple Account’s Subscriptions section. See Apple’s cancellation instructions. Removing Notify, resetting its data, disabling an automation, or asking us to delete data does not cancel an Apple-billed subscription.
Use Restore Purchases in Notify to ask the app to check qualifying purchases for the Apple Account currently in use. Access depends on Apple’s transaction information and verification. We do not receive your full payment-card details. Refund requests are handled through Apple’s purchase-support process, subject to Apple’s rules and applicable law.
Any App Store promotional or subscription trial that may be offered in the future is governed by the terms displayed for that offer and is separate from Notify’s current app-level introductory usage period unless expressly stated otherwise.
6. Responsible use and privacy
Use Notify only with devices, notifications, and information you are entitled to access. Obtain any permission required by applicable law before storing or using information about someone else. Do not use Notify for unlawful surveillance, harassment, unauthorized account access, or other misuse.
You are responsible for the apps and automations you select, access to your device, and any information you choose to send to support. Notify is not affiliated with or endorsed by the providers of the third-party apps whose notifications you choose to archive.
Our Privacy Policy explains local storage, technical registration, purchase verification, support messages, notification checks, and your data choices.
7. Storage, deletion, and passcode protection
Archived notification contents are stored on your device. Notify does not provide a guaranteed cloud backup or recovery service. Deleting records is permanent within the app, and automatic retention settings may remove older records when cleanup runs.
Clearing records and resetting local data are different actions. Neither action removes your Shortcuts automations, cancels an App Store subscription, or automatically deletes server-held support, registration, or purchase-verification records. Manage automations in Shortcuts and contact support for server-data requests.
Optional passcode protection helps restrict access to the app. Keep your passcode safe; we do not receive it and cannot tell you what it is. Protecting the app does not replace protecting the device or any system backups.
8. Support and service changes
You can contact us through Settings and Contact Support in Notify. Support is a messaging service; an immediate or continuously available response is not guaranteed. Include only information needed to explain your issue and never send your passcode, payment-card details, or another service’s password.
Maintenance, connectivity problems, platform changes, or purchase-verification delays may temporarily affect features. We may update features or these terms, while respecting applicable law and any rights attached to existing purchases. Material changes will be communicated where required, and the revision date will be updated.
9. Ownership and your rights
Notify’s app design, code, name, and branding belong to the developer or their licensors. Third-party and open-source components remain subject to their applicable licenses. You retain the rights you already have in your own information; using Notify does not transfer ownership of your notification content to us.
Do not copy, redistribute, tamper with, or misuse the service except as permitted by the applicable license and law. Nothing in these terms limits lawful rights relating to interoperability, open-source software, consumer protection, or other mandatory rules.
10. Reliability and legal protections
Notify is provided subject to the limitations described above. We do not promise uninterrupted availability, error-free operation, complete notification capture, or recovery of lost or deleted records. To the extent permitted by law, we are not responsible for failures caused by third-party apps, disabled automations, device settings, or services outside our control.
These terms do not exclude any responsibility or remedy that cannot legally be excluded. Applicable mandatory law and the applicable app license determine your rights and any limitations that may lawfully apply. Disputes remain subject to any mandatory jurisdiction and consumer-protection rules that apply to you.
11. Contact and related documents
Open Notify, go to Settings, and select Contact Support. If you cannot access the app, use the developer contact information available through Notify’s App Store listing.
