Terms of Use (EULA)

Skylark

Version 2026-11-02 · Effective November 2, 2026

These Terms of Use (the “terms”) are an agreement between you and Rubotic, Inc. (“Rubotic”, “we”, “us”) about Skylark, our iPhone app for sharing your location with a private group of people called a flock, and the services that come with it. When you create an account, the app asks you to agree to these terms and records the version you accepted. If you don't agree, please don't use Skylark. Our Privacy Policy explains how we handle your data.

The short version

  • You must be 13 or older to use Skylark.
  • Share only with people who know and agree. Never use Skylark to follow anyone in secret.
  • Zero tolerance for abusive names, photos, place names and check-in labels. We can remove content and disable accounts.
  • Skylark is not an emergency service. Alerts can fail or be late. In an emergency, call 911.
  • Positions can be wrong or out of date.
  • Skylark Premium is US$6.99 a month, renews automatically, and is billed by Apple. Cancel in your Apple Account settings at least 24 hours before it renews.

1. Who may use Skylark

You must be at least 13 years old to create an account or use Skylark. Children under 13 may not use Skylark, and accounts for children are not offered at this time. If we learn that an account belongs to someone under 13, we will disable and delete it.

If you are under the age of majority where you live, you may use Skylark only with the permission of a parent or guardian, who agrees to these terms on your behalf. Skylark is offered in the United States.

2. Your account

  • Give accurate information, use an e-mail address that is yours, and keep your password private. An account is for one person.
  • You are responsible for what happens under your account. Don't sign in as anyone else or let anyone else use your account.
  • Your account can be signed in on one phone at a time; signing in on a new phone signs the old one out.
  • If you think someone else is using your account, change your password and write to us at info@rubotic.io.

3. Sharing locations: consent, always

Skylark shares a person's location only after that person has installed Skylark on their own phone, signed in, and allowed location sharing there. Skylark has no hidden mode, and it must never be used as one. You agree that:

  • you will invite only people who want to be in your flock and who understand that the flock will see where they are;
  • you will never use Skylark to secretly follow, watch or track anyone: don't install or sign in to Skylark on someone else's phone, don't change the settings on someone else's phone to share their location, and don't use someone else's account;
  • you will not use Skylark to stalk, harass, threaten, intimidate or control anyone, or to find a person who doesn't want to be found;
  • you will respect the choices of the people you share with: anyone can go off the map, blur their position or leave a flock at any time;
  • you will share guest links only with people you trust (anyone with a link sees your live location until it ends), and you won't copy, publish or pass on other people's locations or information you see in Skylark except to help them in an emergency;
  • you will follow the laws that apply to sharing location and personal information where you live.

4. Your content, and zero tolerance for abuse

Your content. The things you add to Skylark (your name and profile photo, flock names, spot names and addresses, “I'm here” labels and the like) remain yours. You give Rubotic permission to store, copy and show them to the people you share them with, only as needed to run Skylark. You confirm you have the right to use what you add.

Zero tolerance. We do not tolerate abusive content or behavior of any kind. Names, photos, flock names, spot names and check-in labels must not be hateful, harassing, threatening, sexually explicit, violent, defamatory, or illegal; must not demean anyone for their race, ethnicity, religion, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability or age; and must not impersonate anyone.

Using Skylark fairly. Skylark is for personal, non-commercial use. Don't copy, modify or reverse engineer the app (except where the law allows it), interfere with or overload our service, guess or collect invite codes or guest links, create accounts by automated means, or try to get around plan limits, payments or security.

Reports and enforcement. To report someone, open their card and choose “Report a problem with someone in this flock”, or write to info@rubotic.io. We answer reports within 24 hours. We may remove content and disable accounts that break these terms, that put others at risk, or where the law requires it, without notice. A flock's admins can also remove members from their flock.

5. Skylark is not an emergency service

Help alerts, crash check, arrive, leave and late alerts, low battery notices, chirps and every other notification depend on things we don't control: your phone, its battery and settings, the permissions you have given, Low Power Mode, mobile and internet connections, location signals, and Apple's and Google's notification services. Any alert can fail, arrive late, or not arrive at all.

  • Skylark does not contact or dispatch emergency services, and nobody at Rubotic watches alerts. A help alert reaches only the people in your flocks: it shows them your live location while the alert lasts, and they decide what to do.
  • “Call emergency services” in Skylark only opens your iPhone's Phone app with 911 (or your local emergency number) filled in, and the call starts only when you confirm it. The call is placed by your phone and your mobile carrier, not by Skylark. Whatever location emergency services receive comes from your phone and your carrier, as with any emergency call made from your iPhone; Skylark sends nothing to emergency services.
  • Crash check is optional. It can miss real crashes and can raise false alarms. It is not a replacement for emergency services or for crash detection built into your phone or car.
  • Skylark does not send text messages to emergency contacts at this time.
  • In an emergency, call 911 (or your local emergency number). Don't rely on Skylark as your only way to get help, and don't handle your phone while driving.

6. Locations and other information can be wrong

Positions come from your phone's GPS, Wi-Fi and mobile signals, and they can be inaccurate, out of date or missing. Each position in Skylark shows its age; check it before relying on it. Arrive alerts usually come within about a minute and leave alerts a few minutes after someone has left, but either can be late or missed. Drives, driving moments, speeds and landings are estimates from phone sensors: counts, not a score, and not a measure of anyone's driving. Don't use Skylark for navigation, or for any decision where a wrong or late position could cause harm.

7. Skylark Premium

  • Price. Skylark Premium is an optional, auto-renewing subscription of US$6.99 a month in the United States, plus any applicable taxes.
  • Free trial. New subscribers get a one-week free trial; Apple decides who is eligible (one introductory offer per Apple Account). Unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the trial ends, the subscription continues at the monthly price.
  • Billing. Apple bills your Apple Account when you confirm the purchase or, with a free trial, when the trial ends. The subscription renews automatically every month unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, and the renewal is charged within the 24 hours before the period ends.
  • Cancelling. Manage or cancel in Settings > Apple Account > Subscriptions (on iOS 17, Settings > your name > Subscriptions), or from Skylark: You tab > Membership > Manage subscription. Cancelling stops the next renewal; Premium stays on until the end of the period you paid for. Deleting the app or your account does not cancel the subscription.
  • Refunds. Apple handles all billing and refunds under its own terms; we cannot issue refunds ourselves.
  • One flock. A subscription covers one flock you choose, and everyone in that flock gets Premium while it is active. You can move it to another of your flocks at most once every 7 days, and leaving the covered flock counts as a move. Family Sharing is not available for Skylark Premium.
  • Price changes. We may change the price. Apple tells subscribers in advance as its rules require, and in some cases asks for your agreement; if you don't want to pay the new price, cancel before it applies.
  • When Premium ends, the flock returns to the free plan's limits: history and drives beyond the free window stop being visible at once and are deleted within 31 days, and spots beyond the free limit are locked (no alerts) until you delete them or Premium returns. Help alerts and crash check are part of the free plan.

8. Apple and the App Store

You get Skylark from Apple's App Store, so your use of it is also subject to the App Store's own terms, including its Usage Rules. In addition:

  • These terms are between you and Rubotic only, not Apple. Rubotic, not Apple, is solely responsible for Skylark and its content.
  • We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use Skylark on Apple-branded devices that you own or control, as the Usage Rules allow.
  • Apple has no obligation to provide any maintenance or support for Skylark. For support, contact us.
  • If Skylark fails to meet any warranty that applies to it, you may notify Apple, and Apple will refund the purchase price, if any, you paid Apple for the app. To the fullest extent the law allows, Apple has no other warranty obligation for Skylark, and any other claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs or expenses caused by a failure to meet a warranty are Rubotic's responsibility, as these terms provide.
  • Rubotic, not Apple, is responsible for addressing any claims by you or anyone else relating to Skylark or your use of it, including product liability claims, claims that Skylark fails to meet a legal or regulatory requirement, and claims under consumer protection, privacy or similar laws.
  • If anyone claims that Skylark or your use of it infringes their intellectual property rights, Rubotic, not Apple, is responsible for the investigation, defense, settlement and discharge of that claim.
  • You confirm that you are not located in a country subject to a U.S. Government embargo or designated by the U.S. Government as a “terrorist supporting” country, and that you are not on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
  • You must also follow any third-party terms that apply when you use Skylark, such as your mobile data plan.
  • Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these terms, and once you accept them, Apple may enforce them against you.

9. Our rights

Skylark, including its software, design, name and logo, belongs to Rubotic and is protected by law. Apart from the license in section 8, these terms give you no rights in it. If you send us ideas or feedback, we may use them without any obligation to you.

10. Changes to Skylark

We are always working on Skylark, so we may add, change or remove features and plan limits, or stop offering Skylark. If we stop offering it, we will try to give you reasonable notice so you can download your data.

11. Ending your use

You can stop using Skylark at any time, and delete your account in the app (You tab > your name > Delete account). Deleting your account does not cancel Skylark Premium; cancel it with Apple.

We may suspend or disable your account, or end your access to Skylark, if you break these terms, if your use puts other people at risk, if the account appears to belong to someone under 13, or if the law requires it. When it is appropriate, we will tell you why. Sections 4 (your permission to us, for as long as we need it to finish removing your content), 5, 6, 9, 12, 13, 14 and 16 continue to apply after your use ends.

12. Disclaimers

Skylark is provided “as is” and “as available”. To the fullest extent the law allows, Rubotic disclaims all warranties, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title and non-infringement, and any warranty that Skylark will be uninterrupted, timely, secure or error-free, or that positions, alerts or other information will be accurate, complete or delivered. Some places don't allow these disclaimers, so some of them may not apply to you.

13. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent the law allows, Rubotic and its officers, employees and suppliers will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary or punitive damages, or for any loss of data, profits or goodwill, or for harm resulting from a position, alert or notification that was wrong, late or not delivered, arising out of or relating to Skylark or these terms, even if we were told such damages were possible. Our total liability for all claims relating to Skylark or these terms is limited to the greater of the amount you paid for Skylark Premium in the 12 months before the claim arose, or US$50.

Nothing in these terms limits or excludes liability that cannot be limited or excluded by law.

14. If you have a concern

If something about Skylark isn't right, please write to us first at info@rubotic.io; most concerns can be resolved quickly that way. Nothing in these terms takes away rights you have under the consumer protection laws of the place where you live.

15. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms. Each version is identified by its version date at the top of this page. When we make a change that matters, we will publish the new version here before it takes effect and tell you about it, by e-mail to your account's address or in the app. If you continue to use Skylark after the new version takes effect, you accept it; if you don't accept it, you can stop using Skylark and delete your account. Changes to Skylark Premium's price follow Apple's rules, as described in section 7.

16. General

These terms, together with the Privacy Policy and the App Store's terms, are the whole agreement between you and Rubotic about Skylark. If any part of these terms can't be enforced, the rest stays in effect. If we don't enforce a part of these terms right away, we can still enforce it later. You may not transfer these terms to anyone else; we may transfer them as part of a merger, acquisition or sale of Skylark. Apart from Apple (section 8), nobody else has rights under these terms.
