These Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) govern your use of the Vital Reminder mobile application (“the App,” “Vital Reminder”) developed and maintained by an independent developer (“Developer,” “we,” “our,” or “us”). By downloading, installing, or using the App, you agree to be bound by these Terms.

If you do not agree to these Terms, do not download, install, or use the App.

1. Medical Disclaimer

1.1 Not a Medical Device

Vital Reminder is not a medical device. The App has not been evaluated, cleared, or approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the European Medicines Agency (EMA), or any other regulatory authority responsible for the oversight of medical devices or pharmaceutical products.

1.2 Not Medical Advice

The App does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, treatment recommendations, or healthcare services of any kind. The App is a personal organizational tool designed solely to help you remember medication schedules and track dose history.

1.3 Consult Your Healthcare Provider

You should always consult a qualified healthcare professional (physician, pharmacist, nurse, or other licensed provider) regarding:

What medications to take and their correct dosages
When and how to take your medications
Potential drug interactions or side effects
Any changes to your medication regimen
Any health concerns or symptoms

Do not start, stop, change, or adjust any medication based solely on information displayed in or tracked by this App.

1.4 No Guarantee of Notification Delivery

While Vital Reminder makes best efforts to deliver timely medication reminders, the App cannot guarantee that notifications will be delivered at the exact scheduled time, or at all. Notification delivery depends on factors outside the Developer's control, including but not limited to:

iOS system settings and notification permissions
Device power state (powered off, low battery, battery saver mode)
Device storage availability
iOS system resource management and background app restrictions
“Do Not Disturb,” “Focus,” or “Sleep” mode settings
Software updates, device restarts, or system interruptions
Apple's operating system behavior regarding local notification scheduling limits

You must not rely solely on this App for critical or life-sustaining medication reminders. Always maintain alternative reminder methods for medications where a missed dose could have serious health consequences.

1.5 Limitation of Health Liability

The Developer is not a healthcare provider, pharmacist, or medical professional. The Developer assumes no responsibility for any health outcomes, adverse effects, injuries, or damages resulting from:

Missed, late, or incorrect medication doses
Inaccurate information entered into the App by the user
Reliance on the App as a sole reminder system
Failure of the App to deliver a notification
Any decision made based on information displayed in or tracked by the App

2. Eligibility and Age Restrictions

2.1 Minimum Age

You must be at least 17 years of age to download and use Vital Reminder. By using the App, you represent and warrant that you meet this age requirement.

2.2 Parental and Caregiver Use

Users aged 13 to 16 may use the App only under the direct supervision and responsibility of a parent or legal guardian. The supervising adult assumes full responsibility for the minor's use of the App.

2.3 Sub-Profiles for Dependents

The App allows users to create sub-profiles to manage medication information for other individuals (e.g., children, elderly parents, or other dependents). If you create a sub-profile for another person:

You represent that you have the legal authority or appropriate consent to manage medication information for that individual.
You assume full responsibility for the accuracy and appropriateness of the information entered.
You acknowledge that the Developer has no access to, control over, or liability for the information you enter on behalf of another person.

3.3 Device Security

You are responsible for maintaining the security and access controls of your device. Since all App data is stored locally on your device, anyone with access to your unlocked device may be able to view your medication and profile information.
