Terms of Use
Last updated
The short version: use BetterList for your own shopping, check the sorted list before you rely on it, and manage Pro through your Apple ID. The details are below.
About these terms
BetterList is provided by Neslihan Yildiz, a sole trader based in the United Kingdom (“we”, “us”). These terms apply when you use the BetterList iPhone app and the services behind it.
Your licence to use the app itself comes from Apple’s Licensed Application End User License Agreement, which applies to every app downloaded from the App Store. These terms apply in addition to that agreement and cover what is specific to BetterList. If the two conflict on the licence to the app, Apple’s agreement applies.
By using BetterList, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use it.
AI-sorted lists
BetterList uses artificial intelligence to read your list, tidy item names and quantities, and group items by supermarket aisle. This works well most of the time, but it can make mistakes: an item may be misread, dropped, placed in an unexpected aisle, or given the wrong quantity. Store layouts also vary.
Sorted lists are provided “as is” as a shopping aid. Please check the result against your original note, especially where it matters, such as allergies or dietary needs.
Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- access the BetterList sorting service other than through the app, including by automated or bulk requests
- reverse engineer, copy or resell the service or its API
- try to get around the free-list limit or subscription checks
- send content that is unlawful or intended to disrupt or overload the service
We may limit or stop access to the service for installations that break these rules.
Free lists and Pro subscriptions
The first 3 aisle-sorted lists are free. After that, creating new lists requires BetterList Pro, available as a monthly or annual subscription. Prices for your region are shown in the app before you buy.
- Billing. Pro is sold and billed by Apple through your Apple ID. Payment is taken when you confirm the purchase.
- Free trial. The annual plan starts with a 3-day free trial. Unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the trial ends, it converts to a paid annual subscription.
- Renewal. Subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each period unless you turn off auto-renew at least 24 hours before the period ends.
- Cancelling. Manage or cancel Pro in your iPhone’s Settings, under your Apple ID › Subscriptions. Cancelling stops the next renewal; Pro stays active until the end of the period you have paid for.
- Refunds. Refunds are handled by Apple under its policies. You can request one at reportaproblem.apple.com.
- Restoring. If you reinstall the app or move to a new iPhone, use “Restore Purchases” in the app to get Pro back.
Changes to the service
We work to keep BetterList available and useful, but we may update, change or withdraw features, and the service may occasionally be unavailable, for example during maintenance. If we stop offering Pro, we will not renew existing subscriptions.
Our responsibility to you
Nothing in these terms affects your statutory rights as a consumer, including your rights under the Consumer Rights Act 2015. Nothing limits our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud, or for anything else that cannot be limited by law.
Otherwise, to the extent the law allows, we are not responsible for loss that was not reasonably foreseeable, for business losses, or for loss caused by relying on a sorted list without checking it. BetterList is provided for personal, non-commercial use.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the law of England and Wales. You can bring legal proceedings in the courts of England and Wales. If you live in Scotland or Northern Ireland, you can also bring proceedings in your local courts.
Changes to these terms
We may update these terms, for example when the app or the law changes. We will update this page and the “Last updated” date at the top before the change takes effect. If you keep using BetterList after that, the updated terms apply.
