Terms

Finliem is an iPhone diary and routine planner for babies, made in the UK by an independent developer (“we”, “us”). By using the app you agree to these terms. They are deliberately short — if anything is unclear, ask us at support@finliem.com. Last updated2026-09-21.

What Finliem is for

A diary and routine planner for parents and carers; not a medical device; does not give health advice. That is the purpose we make it for, and the only one.

The service

Finliem logs your baby's naps, milk feeds, solids, nappies and the health events you choose to record, and uses that history to suggest a shape for the day. That data is stored on your own device and in your own iCloud, never on servers of ours (see theprivacy policy). Syncing and sharing depend on your iCloud account and Apple's services, which we don't control. Features will change, and occasionally things will break.

Finliem is free to download and free to use on your own devices. Finliem Plus, which lets you invite other people to a diary, is a one-time purchase through the App Store. Apple takes the payment and handles refunds; your rights under consumer law are below.

Not medical advice

Schedules, predictions and insights are observations about the days you have logged. They are not health advice, diagnosis, or safe-sleep guidance, and they can be wrong for your child.

The medicine, temperature, vaccination, growth and solids logs are a record of what you enter, and nothing more. Finliem does not check a dose, a timing or a limit, and does not ship any medicine or dose information: the medicines in your list are the ones you add, in the words you copy from the packet. It does not tell you what or when to feed, and a note you keep about a food is your record, not a check the app performs. Follow the packaging and your healthcare professional.

If you are worried about your baby's health, contact your GP or a health advice line — and in an emergency, call your local emergency number. Not an app.

Alarms and reliability

Suggested-wake alarms and reminders are scheduled on your own device, so they work without connectivity — but they still depend on your phone: notifications allowed, sound on, battery alive. Do not rely on Finliem as your only safeguard for anything where missing an alarm could cause harm.

Your household

• You must be an adult to use Finliem, and you may only add a child's data if you have parental responsibility for that child or the clear permission of someone who does.
• Sharing with co-parents and carers uses your own iCloud sharing: you choose who to invite, and everyone you invite can see and add to the whole diary, including any calendar events it uses — invite people you trust. If you invite someone who looks after your child as their job, such as a nanny, they may have their own data-protection duties for what they see.
• The diary key protects the diary. Keep the copy the app asks you to keep: we don't have it, and cannot recover a diary without it.

Your data

Your family's data is yours — it lives on your own devices and in your own iCloud, not with us. What we hold (nothing), and how deletion works, are in the privacy policy. You can leave at any time: export the diary first if you want a copy (Settings → the version line → About & help → Export the diary as a file), then delete it in the app. Anyone you shared the diary with keeps what is already on their phone until they delete it.

Acceptable use

Don't use Finliem unlawfully, don't try to access other families' data, and don't knowingly disrupt the service. If you find a security problem, please report it (see the contact below) rather than exploit it.

The App Store

Your licence to use the app is the licence agreement on its App Store listing. Apple is not a party to these terms, is not responsible for the app or its content, and has no obligation to provide support for it — support comes from us, by email, and we aim to reply within a week.

Your consumer rights

Nothing in these terms takes away rights you have by law.

• In the UK, Finliem Plus must be of satisfactory quality, fit for purpose and as described. If it isn't, you are entitled to a repair or a replacement, or, if that can't be done, a price reduction or refund. If the app damages your device or other digital content, you may be entitled to compensation.
• In Australia, our goods come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law. You are entitled to a replacement or refund for a major failure and compensation for any other reasonably foreseeable loss or damage. You are also entitled to have the goods repaired or replaced if the goods fail to be of acceptable quality and the failure does not amount to a major failure.

Liability

Nothing in these terms limits or excludes liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud, or for anything else the law does not allow to be limited, and nothing limits the rights described above. Subject to that, and only to the extent the law allows, we are not liable for losses that were not reasonably foreseeable, for losses caused by your device, your network, your iCloud account or Apple's services, or for business losses — Finliem is for household use.

Changes and law

If we change these terms, the new version is posted here with its date, and a material change is also mentioned in the notes of the app update that comes with it. These terms are governed by the law of England and Wales. If you live in Scotland or Northern Ireland you can also bring a claim in your local courts, and if you live in Australia nothing here stops the Australian Consumer Law, or your local courts, applying.
