Terms of Use
Shift · Last updated October 22, 2026
These terms cover your use of Shift, a breathing-exercise app. By downloading or using Shift, you agree to them.
What Shift is
Shift guides breathing exercises using on-screen and audio cues. It's a wellness and relaxation tool, not a medical device, and isn't intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any medical condition. If you have a heart, lung, or breathing-related condition, or are pregnant, talk to a doctor before starting a new breathing practice — and stop any exercise that makes you feel dizzy, short of breath, or unwell.
Shift Pro
Shift's core techniques and goals are free to use, always. Shift Pro is an optional auto-renewing subscription (or one-time lifetime purchase) that unlocks additional techniques, customization, and sound options. Subscription price, billing period, and any free-trial length are shown before you buy, on the purchase screen itself and in the store's own purchase confirmation (the App Store on iPhone, Google Play on Android).
On iPhone:
- Payment is charged to your Apple ID account at confirmation of purchase.
- Subscriptions automatically renew unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
- Your account will be charged for renewal within 24 hours prior to the end of the current period, at the price you agreed to.
- You can manage or cancel your subscription any time in your device's Settings → your name → Subscriptions — Shift itself has no way to cancel it for you.
On Android:
- Payment is processed by Google Play when you confirm the purchase.
- Subscriptions renew automatically until you cancel them.
- You can manage or cancel your subscription any time under Subscriptions in Google Play — Shift itself has no way to cancel it for you. Uninstalling Shift doesn't cancel it.
On both:
- Any unused portion of a free trial is forfeited if you purchase a subscription during the trial period, where applicable.
- A lifetime purchase is a one-time payment with no recurring charge.
On iPhone, all payments are processed by Apple under Apple's own Media Services Terms and Conditions. Refunds are handled by Apple, not by us — request one through reportaproblem.apple.com.
On Android, all payments are processed by Google Play under the Google Play Terms of Service. Refund requests go through Google Play — see Request a refund on Google Play.
Your data
Shift stores what it needs to function directly on your device, not on a server we run. See the Privacy Policy for the specifics.
Acceptable use
Shift is for personal, non-commercial use. Don't reverse-engineer, resell, or redistribute the app or its content, or use it in any way that violates applicable law.
No warranty
Shift is provided "as is." We've built it carefully, but we don't guarantee it will be uninterrupted, error-free, or fit for any particular purpose. To the extent permitted by law, we're not liable for any damages arising from your use of the app.
Changes
These terms may be updated as the app changes. Continuing to use Shift after an update means you accept the revised terms.
