Terms of Use

Effective date: 9 November 2026

These terms apply to your use of the Bowlie app ("Bowlie", "the app"), made by MINIMA APPS LIMITED, Manchester, United Kingdom ("we", "us"). By creating an account or using the app you agree to them. How we handle personal data is explained in our Privacy Policy.

1. Your account

You sign in with Apple or Google. You must be at least 16, give accurate details and keep your sign-in secure. You are responsible for what happens under your account.

2. Households, members and cat sitters

A household is shared by its members. Members can see and add entries for the household's cats. The owner can invite and remove members.

A Sitter Pass is a link that lets someone log meals and treats for the cats and actions you choose. Anyone who has the link can use it until it expires or you revoke it, so share it only with people you trust. You are responsible for how you share it and for the instructions you give.

Do not misuse the app, attempt to break or overload it, or access other people's households.

3. Not veterinary advice

Bowlie is a feeding and reminder tool. It does not give veterinary advice, diagnose, or calculate doses, and its reminders and alerts are a convenience, not a guarantee. Reminders depend on your device, your connection and notification settings. Always follow your vet's instructions for your cat's food and medicine, and do not rely on the app alone for anything urgent.

4. Bowlie Plus and purchases

You can try the app for a limited number of logs. To keep logging and to use all features you need Bowlie Plus, which is offered as an auto-renewing subscription (monthly or yearly, with a free trial on some plans) or as a one-time lifetime purchase. Prices and trial details are shown in the app before you buy.

• Payment is charged to your Apple Account (or Google Play account) when you confirm the purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. You can manage or cancel subscriptions in your Apple Account settings (or Google Play).
• Any free trial turns into a paid subscription at its end unless you cancel before.
• One member's purchase unlocks Bowlie Plus for the household while that purchase is active.
• Refunds are handled by Apple (or Google) under their policies.
• If your free use ends and you do not buy, you can still read your history and export your data.

5. Your content

You keep ownership of what you enter. You give us permission to store and process it to run the app for you, your household and your cat sitters.

6. Ending your use

You can delete your account at any time in Settings. We may suspend or remove accounts that break these terms or put the service at risk. We may change or stop parts of the app; where we reasonably can we will tell you first.

7. Our responsibility

We provide the app with reasonable care and skill. Nothing in these terms limits any liability that cannot be limited by law, including for death or personal injury caused by negligence or for fraud, or your legal rights as a consumer. Subject to that, we are not liable for loss that was not a reasonably foreseeable result of our breach, or for loss caused by missed or late notifications, device or network problems, or by you not following your vet's advice.

8. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms when the app changes. The effective date shows when they were last changed. If you keep using the app after a change you accept the new terms.

9. Governing law

These terms are governed by the law of England and Wales. If you are a consumer, you also keep the protection of the mandatory laws of the country where you live.
