Terms & Conditions

Last updated: July 10, 2026 · The fine print, lightly translated

1. The agreement

By downloading or using ScrollRat (the app) or this website, you agree to these terms. ScrollRat is made by LuxaLounge, based in Belgium. If you don't agree, don't use the app — ScrollRat the character would love that, but we'd rather you stayed.

2. What ScrollRat does

ScrollRat helps you fight doomscrolling using Apple's Screen Time technology: per-app daily limits, scheduled blocking, focus sessions, missions, and screen-time insights. App blocking uses Apple's Family Controls framework and requires your explicit permission, which you can withdraw at any time in iOS Settings.

3. Subscriptions & payment

• ScrollRat Pro costs €4.99/month or €45/year (local prices may vary — the App Store shows the exact price before you buy).
• Payment is charged to your Apple Account at purchase confirmation. There is no free trial and no free tier — commitment is the feature.
• Subscriptions auto-renew until cancelled. Cancel anytime in Settings → Apple Account → Subscriptions; cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period.
• Refunds are handled exclusively by Apple under App Store rules — request them at reportaproblem.apple.com.

4. Your obligations

• You need an Apple ID and must meet Apple's age requirements for one; if you're a minor, use ScrollRat with a parent or guardian's consent.
• Don't attempt to reverse engineer the app, abuse the service, or use it unlawfully. Finding creative ways around your own blocks is between you and the rat.

5. Honest limitations

ScrollRat is a behavior tool, not a guarantee. iOS ultimately controls what can and cannot be blocked, and you can always disable Screen Time access yourself. The app is provided "as is": we don't warrant that blocking is unbreakable, that usage figures are perfectly accurate, or that the service is uninterrupted. To the maximum extent permitted by law, LuxaLounge is not liable for indirect damages arising from use of the app — including the four hours you scrolled anyway.

6. Changes to the service

We may change features, prices (for new billing periods, never retroactively), or these terms. Material changes are announced in the app or on this site before they apply.

7. Termination

You can stop using ScrollRat at any time — delete the app and everything it knows goes with it. We may suspend service for abuse or violations of these terms.

8. Governing law

These terms are governed by Belgian law. Disputes go to the courts of Belgium, though we'd much rather you just email us first.
