These terms are an agreement between you and Darius Tatum, the maker of Urge Walk (“we,” “us”). By using the Urge Walk app or this website, you agree to them. If you don’t agree, please don’t use the app.
1. A wellness tool, not medical care
Urge Walk helps you build a habit: when an urge hits, take a short walk, breathe for a minute, or log it. It is not medical, psychological, or addiction treatment, it doesn’t diagnose anything, and it isn’t a substitute for a doctor, counselor, or treatment program. Talk to a qualified professional about your health.
Urge Walk is not a crisis service. If you are in crisis or thinking about harming yourself, call or text 988 (Suicide & Crisis Lifeline, US, 24/7). For substance use or mental health treatment referrals, call the SAMHSA National Helpline at 1-800-662-4357 (free, confidential, 24/7). In an emergency, call 911.
2. Age
You must be 18 or older to use Urge Walk. The app asks you to confirm your age during setup.
3. What’s free
The core features of Urge Walk, including riding out an urge (Walk, Breathe, and Just log it), your log, and your clean-day count, are free. Urge Walk shows no ads.
4. Premium subscription
Premium isn’t available yet. This section describes how it will work and applies once Premium launches in the app.
- Optional. Premium is an optional, auto-renewing subscription that adds extra features. You never need it to use the core features.
- Price and length. Premium costs $4.99 per month (renews every month) or $34.99 per year (renews every year), in US dollars. Prices in other countries may differ and are shown in the app before you buy.
- Free trial. Each plan starts with a 7-day free trial. If you don’t cancel at least 24 hours before the trial ends, your subscription begins and you are charged for the plan you chose. We will send you a reminder before your trial ends. Any unused part of a free trial ends when you buy a subscription.
- Billing. Payment is charged to your Apple ID account when you confirm the purchase (or when the free trial ends).
- Automatic renewal. Your subscription renews automatically at the same price and length unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Your Apple ID account is charged for renewal within the 24 hours before the current period ends.
- Manage or cancel. On your iPhone, go to Settings > [your name] (Apple ID) > Subscriptions, choose Urge Walk, and turn off auto-renewal or change plans. Canceling stops future renewals; you keep Premium until the end of the period you’ve paid for. Deleting the app does not cancel a subscription.
- Refunds. Purchases are handled by Apple. To ask for a refund, use Apple’s “Report a Problem” page (reportaproblem.apple.com) or contact Apple Support. We can’t issue refunds directly.
- Price changes. If the price changes, you’ll be told in advance as Apple requires, and you can cancel before the new price applies.
5. Using Urge Walk fairly
Please use Urge Walk only for its intended, personal purpose. Don’t:
- break the law with it, or use it to harm or harass anyone;
- try to hack, disrupt, reverse-engineer, or overload the app or this website;
- copy, resell, or redistribute the app or its content, except as the law allows.
Use common sense while walking: stay aware of traffic and your surroundings, and only walk where it’s safe.
6. Your data
How your information is handled is explained in our Privacy Policy.
7. No guarantees
We work hard to make Urge Walk helpful and reliable, but it is provided “as is” and “as available.” We can’t promise it will be error-free, always available, or that it will help with any particular urge or goal. Keep a backup of anything that matters to you.
8. Limits on our liability
To the fullest extent the law allows, we are not responsible for indirect or unexpected losses, such as lost data, lost profits, or decisions you make based on the app. If we are found responsible for anything, our total responsibility is limited to the amount you paid for Urge Walk in the 12 months before the claim (or $0 if you only used the free features). Some places don’t allow these limits, so they may not all apply to you. Nothing here takes away rights you have under consumer protection law.
9. Apple
These terms are between you and us, not Apple. Apple is not responsible for the app or its support. Your use of the App Store is also covered by Apple’s own terms, including its standard license for apps (Apple’s Licensed Application End User License Agreement).
10. Changes
We may update these terms, for example when Premium or optional accounts launch. We’ll change the date above, and for important changes we’ll let you know in the app or on this site. If you keep using Urge Walk after an update, the new terms apply.
