The terms, in plain words.

Who we are

These are the terms for the Ome app, the stones and this website. Ome is in presale. The company's registered name and address will be published here before any deposit is taken.

Nothing in these terms takes away rights the law gives you as a consumer where you live.

What Ome is

Ome is a pair of stones and an iPhone app that help you step away from the apps and websites you choose. It needs an iPhone on iOS 18 or later, Sign in with Apple, and Apple's Screen Time permission.

Ome is not a medical device and it is not a treatment.

You can always come back

Stepping away is your own choice. You can always come back yourself, by tapping your stone or in the app, whether or not you are a member.

The other stone

The person with the other stone, your Anam Cara (soul friend), is a witness. They can never control your phone, and can never start, end or extend your time away or look inside it. Either of you can part ways alone, at any time.

Membership

Each stone comes with a year of Ome membership for the person who first wakes it. The year starts on the day the stone is woken, and each stone gives it once.

After that, membership is a subscription of £9.99, €9.99 or $9.99 a year for each person, bought in the app through the App Store. The price the App Store shows you when you buy is the one that applies. It renews each year, and Apple charges your Apple account within the 24 hours before the year ends, unless you cancel at least 24 hours before then. You can cancel at any time in your Apple account's subscriptions; membership then runs to the end of the year you paid for.

Membership is what passes between the two of you: seeing when the other steps away, joining them, cheering them on, your shared time in Ome, and most of your stats. If either person's membership ends, that part pauses for you both until it is renewed. Nothing is deleted. Your stone still quiets your phone, you can still come back, and you keep your own history.

Deleting your Ome account does not cancel the subscription.

Membership refunds

Membership is sold by Apple, so refunds are Apple's to give. Ask at reportaproblem.apple.com. If Apple refunds a subscription, membership ends at that moment. You keep your stone, your pairing and your history.

The presale

The presale is 300 numbered pairs at the presale price: £79 in the UK and €95 in Ireland and the EU. At launch a pair is £99 or €119.

Joining the presale list costs nothing and commits you to nothing. From 24 November you can hold a pair with a £20 or €20 deposit. The deposit is refundable in full, at any time and for any reason, until your stones are ready to ship.

To have your deposit back, write to us.

When your stones are ready we will write to you, and only then charge the balance: £59 or €75.

We expect to ship in spring 2027, with April as the target. This is an estimate.

If we cannot ship, we will return your deposit in full.

After your stones arrive you have the right the law gives you to change your mind and return them for a refund.

Your legal rights if something is faulty are not affected.

Ome is not yet sold in the US. The US list is a list only.

The stones

A stone has no battery and nothing to charge. The first tap makes a stone yours. You can release it to pass it on, or retire it if it is lost.

Using Ome fairly

Do not use Ome to harass anyone, do not try to wake a stone that is not yours, and do not interfere with the service. We may suspend an account that does.

What we are responsible for

Ome helps you step away; it cannot promise that you will. It relies on Apple's Screen Time tools, which Apple may change. Nothing here limits rights the law gives you as a consumer.

Your data

What Ome stores, and who can see it, is set out on the Privacy page.

Changes

If these terms change in a way that matters, we will tell you in the app before the change takes effect. These terms were last updated on 13 November 2026.
