Oath, Terms of Use and End User License Agreement
Last updated: October 23, 2026
These Terms of Use ("Terms") are a legal agreement between you and the developer of Oath ("Oath", "we", "us", "our") for the Oath iOS app, its widgets and extensions, and any related services ("the App"). By downloading, installing or using the App you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the App. These Terms are also the End User License Agreement (EULA) for the App. Where these Terms are silent, Apple's Licensed Application End User License Agreement applies.
Oath was previously published as "Stoic". These Terms apply to the App under either name.
Oath is a focus and discipline app. Depending on your plan and device it may include:
The App is a self-improvement tool. It is not medical, psychological, financial or legal advice, and it is not a safety device.
You must be at least 13 years old to use the App. If you are under the age of majority where you live, you may use the App only with the permission of a parent or guardian who agrees to these Terms on your behalf. You must be legally able to enter into this agreement.
The App creates an anonymous account on first launch. You may sign in with Apple, Google or an email address. You are responsible for keeping your device and sign-in details secure and for everything done through your account. Tell us promptly if you think your account has been used without permission. You may delete your account at any time from Settings.
We grant you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and use the App on Apple devices you own or control, as allowed by Apple's usage rules. You may not copy, modify, distribute, sell, rent, lend, reverse engineer, decompile, extract source code from, or create derivative works of the App, except where the law expressly allows it. You may not use the App to break the law, to harm others, or to interfere with the App or our systems.
The App's blocking, focus and alarm features rely on Apple's Screen Time framework, iOS background execution, notifications and device sensors, all of which are outside our control. You acknowledge that:
We are not liable for any loss, missed obligation or other outcome arising from the operation, non-operation, delay or failure of these features.
Some challenges ask you to walk, speak loudly, or do exercises such as push-ups counted by the camera. Do them only if you are physically able to, and stop if you feel pain or discomfort. Consult a doctor before starting any exercise if you have a health condition. You do these challenges at your own risk. The camera counts movement on your device and does not record or send video.
Ghost Feed displays the Instagram, TikTok and YouTube websites inside the App and hides parts of them on your device. You acknowledge that:
Scan a book, brain dump and roadmap suggestions send the single item you submit to a third-party AI model through our server and return its output. AI output can be inaccurate, incomplete or unsuitable, and is provided for information only. Review anything it produces before relying on it. You may not submit content that is unlawful, that you have no right to submit, or that contains other people's personal data. We may limit the number of AI requests per user to control cost and abuse.
Credits, streak repairs, day counts, XP and similar items exist only inside the App. They have no monetary value, cannot be bought, sold, transferred or redeemed for money or anything of value, and may be adjusted, reset, capped or removed at any time, including to fix bugs or stop abuse. You have no property right in them. Attempting to manipulate, automate or exploit them is a breach of these Terms.
Anything you write or add to the App (notes, journal lines, tasks, habits, profile details, photos, brain dumps, book cover photos) is yours. Most of it never leaves your phone. For anything you do send to our servers, you grant us a limited, non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, store and process it only as needed to provide the App to you. You are responsible for your content and must have the right to use it. We may remove content that breaks these Terms or the law.
The book summaries in the App are our own original overviews written to help you decide what to read and to remember the main ideas. They are not the books, do not replace them, and are not endorsed by the authors or publishers. Book titles, authors and cover images belong to their respective owners and are shown for identification. Your book list and notes are stored on your device.
You agree not to:
We may suspend or terminate access for breaches, with or without notice.
The App, its name, logo, artwork, text, summaries, code and design are owned by us or our licensors and protected by copyright, trademark and other laws. Except for the license in section 5 and your rights in your own content, nothing in these Terms gives you any right in the App. "Oath" and the Oath crest are our trademarks. Apple, iPhone, Face ID and Screen Time are trademarks of Apple Inc. Instagram and Facebook are trademarks of Meta Platforms, Inc. TikTok is a trademark of ByteDance Ltd. and its affiliates. YouTube is a trademark of Google LLC.
Our Privacy Policy explains what the App collects and what stays on your phone. It forms part of these Terms.
The App uses services from Apple, Google, Meta, Superwall, Supabase, OpenAI, Google Books, Open Library, Open-Meteo and Resend, and displays Instagram, TikTok and YouTube. Those services have their own terms, which apply to your use of them. We are not responsible for third-party services, their availability, or changes they make.
We may add, change, limit or remove features, and may stop providing the App or any part of it, at any time. Where a change materially reduces what a paid subscription provides, you may cancel and Apple's refund rules apply.
THE APP DOES NOT GUARANTEE ANY RESULT, including improvements in focus, discipline, screen time, habits, productivity, sleep, fitness, grades, income or well-being. Streaks, verdicts, credits and day counts are tools, not judgments about you. Outcomes depend on things outside our control.
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE APP IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE", WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ACCURACY, NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND THAT THE APP WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE OR SECURE. Some jurisdictions do not allow these exclusions, so some may not apply to you.
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE AND OUR OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS AND AFFILIATES ARE NOT LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, GOODWILL OR OPPORTUNITIES, ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THE APP, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS RELATED TO THE APP IS LIMITED TO THE GREATER OF THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US IN THE TWELVE MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM OR TEN US DOLLARS (USD 10).
Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability that cannot be excluded or limited by law, including for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud, or consumer rights that cannot be waived in your country.
You will defend, indemnify and hold us harmless from claims, damages, costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from your content, your use of the App, your breach of these Terms, or your violation of any law or third-party right, including the terms of Instagram, TikTok or YouTube.
You may stop using the App and delete your account at any time. We may suspend or terminate your access at any time for breach of these Terms, for legal reasons, or if we discontinue the App. Sections that by their nature should survive (including 10, 11, 15, 19 to 22 and 24 to 27) survive termination.
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Israel, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Before starting any formal proceeding, email us and we will try to resolve the matter informally within 30 days.
To the extent permitted by law, any dispute not resolved informally will be settled by binding arbitration in Israel by a single arbitrator under the rules of the Israeli Institute of Commercial Arbitration, or by a mutually agreed arbitrator, and the award may be entered in any competent court. Proceedings are individual only; class, consolidated or representative actions are waived to the extent the law allows. Either party may seek injunctive relief in court to protect intellectual property.
If you are a consumer in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or another jurisdiction whose law gives you the right to bring claims in your local courts or protects you from mandatory arbitration, nothing in this section takes that right away.
These terms apply because the App is distributed through the Apple App Store:
If any part of these Terms is unenforceable, the rest remains in effect. Our failure to enforce a right is not a waiver. You may not assign these Terms; we may assign them to a successor. These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy, are the entire agreement between you and us about the App and replace any earlier terms. We may update these Terms; the date at the top shows when. For material changes we will tell you in the App before they take effect, and continuing to use the App after that means you accept them.
