These terms and conditions apply to the Flight Wake app for mobile devices, together with any related services operated by Adam Gelatka (collectively, the "Application"). Adam Gelatka is hereby referred to as the "Service Provider".
By downloading or using the Application, you agree to these Terms and Conditions. You should read them carefully before using the Application.
Important Safety Notice
Flight Wake is a convenience tool that estimates aircraft descent using your device's barometer and triggers an alarm. It is not a safety-critical, navigation, aviation, medical, or emergency service, and must not be relied upon as such.
- Always follow the instructions of the cabin crew, the captain, and any in-flight announcements. Their instructions override anything the Application tells you.
- Comply with all airline rules regarding electronic devices, airplane mode, and device usage during flight.
- Sensor readings, battery state, cabin pressurization behavior, software bugs, or operating system limitations may cause the Application to trigger late, trigger early, or not trigger at all.
- Do not use the Application as your sole means of waking up where missing the wake-up could cause harm (e.g. medical needs, missed connections you cannot afford to miss). Consider a backup alarm or asking a travel companion or crew member.
- You are responsible for ensuring your device is sufficiently charged, that required permissions are granted, and that the device is positioned to detect pressure changes.
By using the Application, you acknowledge these limitations and accept that the Service Provider is not responsible for missed wake-ups, late wake-ups, false alarms, missed connections, or any other outcome arising from your use of the Application.
License to use the Application
Subject to your compliance with these Terms, the Service Provider grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and use the Application on a mobile device for personal, non-commercial purposes. You may not reproduce, distribute, modify, create derivative works from, reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the Application, except as and only to the extent that such activity is expressly permitted by applicable law.
This license applies to the Application as distributed through the Apple App Store. Portions of the underlying source code may be made available separately under an open-source license; in that case, the open-source license terms govern your use of that source code, while these Terms continue to govern your use of the distributed Application, its branding, and related services.
Intellectual Property
The Service Provider retains all intellectual property rights in the Application, including its design, trademarks, service marks, trade names, logos, and branding (the "IP"). Nothing in these Terms grants you any license or right to use the Service Provider's trademarks, logos, or branding for any purpose. You agree not to remove, alter, or obscure any copyright, trademark, or other proprietary notices displayed in or on the Application.
Unauthorized copying or modification of the Application, any part of the Application, or the Service Provider's trademarks is strictly prohibited. Any attempts to translate the Application into other languages or create derivative versions are not permitted, except as expressly allowed by an applicable open-source license covering the source code. All trademarks, copyrights, database rights, and other intellectual property rights related to the Application remain the property of the Service Provider.
Eligibility
By accessing and using this Application, you represent that you are legally permitted to use it in your jurisdiction. You must be at least 16 years of age (the age of digital consent in your jurisdiction) to use the Application. If you are below 16, a parent or legal guardian must review and accept these Terms on your behalf.
Acceptable Use
You agree to use the Application only for its intended purpose and in compliance with applicable law. You agree not to:
- Use the Application in a way that violates airline rules, aviation regulations, or the lawful instructions of cabin crew;
- Interfere with, disrupt, or attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Application or its supporting infrastructure;
- Use the Application to engage in any illegal activity;
- Bypass, disable, or otherwise circumvent any security, billing, or licensing mechanisms of the Application.
Termination
The Service Provider may suspend your access to the Application or services if you materially breach these Terms. Where the breach is capable of cure, the Service Provider will provide you with notice and you will have 14 days from receipt of notice to remedy the breach. If you fail to cure the breach within that period, the Service Provider may terminate your access.
The Service Provider may suspend or terminate your access immediately without notice if you violate applicable law, infringe intellectual property rights, or engage in activity that could cause harm to other users or the Service Provider.
Upon termination, your right to use the Application will end and you must delete all copies from your devices.
Purchases and Subscriptions
The Application may offer one-time in-app purchases and/or auto-renewing subscriptions. All purchases are processed by Apple via the App Store, and are subject to Apple's terms and your Apple ID account settings. Pricing, billing periods, and renewal behavior are disclosed in the Application before purchase.
The Service Provider reserves the right to modify the Application or change pricing at any time and for any reason. Any changes to pricing for existing subscriptions will be communicated to you in advance as required by the App Store. Refund requests are generally handled by Apple in accordance with App Store policies.
Device, Connectivity, and Security
The Application stores and processes data on your device that you have provided in order to provide the service. It is your responsibility to maintain the security of your device and access to the Application. The Service Provider strongly advises against jailbreaking or rooting your device, which involves removing software restrictions imposed by the official operating system. Such actions could expose your device to malware, compromise its security features, and may result in the Application not functioning correctly or at all.
Some functions of the Application may require an active internet connection (for example, analytics, subscription validation, or remote configuration). Core descent-detection and alarm functionality is designed to work offline once configured, but the Service Provider does not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation in any specific environment.
If you use the Application outside of a Wi-Fi area, your mobile network provider's agreement terms still apply, and you may incur data or roaming charges. You accept responsibility for any such charges. If you are not the bill payer for the device on which you are using the Application, the Service Provider assumes that you have obtained permission from the bill payer.
It is your responsibility to ensure that your device remains charged and that the Application has the permissions it needs (such as motion, notifications, and where applicable, location for background keep-alive). If your device runs out of battery, permissions are denied, or the operating system limits background activity, the Service Provider cannot be held responsible.
Third-Party Services
The Application uses third-party services that have their own terms and conditions. Links to those terms:
- Google Analytics for Firebase
- RevenueCat
- Apple Media Services Terms (governs App Store purchases and subscriptions)
The Application also relies on Apple system frameworks, including AlarmKit, Core Motion, and Core Location, which are governed by Apple's standard end-user terms.
The Service Provider accepts no liability for any loss, direct or indirect, that you experience as a result of relying entirely on third-party information provided through this Application, or for inaccuracies in content provided by third parties.
Updates and Availability
The Service Provider may update the Application from time to time. The Application is currently available for the operating system versions described on the App Store listing; the requirements may change, and you will need to download updates if you want to continue using the Application. The Service Provider does not guarantee that it will always update the Application so that it is compatible with the particular operating system version installed on your device. You should accept updates when offered; if you choose not to, the Service Provider may cease to support earlier versions and the Application may not function properly.
The Service Provider may also cease providing the Application and may terminate its availability at any time without providing termination notice to you. Unless otherwise communicated, upon any termination: (a) the rights and licenses granted to you in these Terms will end; and (b) you must cease using the Application and, if necessary, delete it from your device.
Limitation of Liability
Nothing in these Terms shall limit any rights you have under applicable consumer protection laws that cannot be lawfully excluded.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Service Provider shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including but not limited to lost profits, data loss, missed flights or connections, missed wake-ups, or business interruption, even if advised of the possibility of such damages.
However, the Service Provider retains full liability for:
- Death or personal injury caused by negligence;
- Fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation;
- Any other liability that cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, the total liability of the Service Provider for any claim shall not exceed the amount paid by you to the Service Provider (via the App Store) for the Application or its in-app purchases in the 12 months preceding the claim, or the minimum amount that must be paid under applicable law, whichever is greater. If you have not paid anything for the Application, the Service Provider's liability is limited to the minimum amount permitted by applicable law.
Indemnification
To the fullest extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Service Provider, its affiliates, officers, directors, employees and agents from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses and expenses, including reasonable legal fees, arising out of or directly related to your breach of these Terms or your intentional misuse of the Application.
This indemnification does not apply to claims arising from the Service Provider's own negligence, breach of these Terms, or violation of applicable law. In jurisdictions where consumer indemnification is restricted by law, this clause shall be limited to the maximum extent permitted.
Governing Law and Jurisdiction
These Terms and Conditions are governed by the laws of the jurisdiction in which the Service Provider is established, excluding conflict of law rules, except to the extent mandatory consumer protection laws provide otherwise.
Any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms will be brought before the courts that have jurisdiction under applicable law. Nothing in this clause limits any rights you may have to bring a claim in a court that is competent under mandatory law.
Severability
If any provision of these Terms and Conditions is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, such provision shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it valid and enforceable, and the remaining provisions of these Terms shall remain in full force and effect.
Entire Agreement
These Terms and Conditions, together with the Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and the Service Provider concerning your use of the Application, superseding any prior agreements or understandings.
Changes to These Terms and Conditions
The Service Provider may periodically update these Terms and Conditions. You are advised to review this page regularly for any changes. The Service Provider will notify you of any changes by posting the new Terms and Conditions on this page.
Previous versions of these Terms and Conditions will be maintained and made available upon request by contacting the Service Provider at gelatka.adam@gmail.com.
These terms and conditions are effective as of 2026-05-28.
