Draft for your review. This text describes what PocketShell does today and was written to be accurate, but it is not legal advice. Have a qualified person check it before launch, and replace every placeholder. Remove this box when done.

Terms of use

These terms apply to PocketShell, provided by Muhammad Taha Raees ("we"). By installing or using PocketShell you agree to them.

License

We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use PocketShell on your own Android devices (up to five active devices per account). PocketShell is not open source. Do not copy, resell, reverse engineer or remove license checks, except where the law or a third-party license allows it.

Trial and purchase

New accounts get a 15-day free trial. To keep using PocketShell afterwards you buy the full license once, for €7.99, inside the app. Updates within the current major version are included.

Third-party software

PocketShell includes open-source components, including the Termux terminal libraries, PRoot and Debian, under their own licenses. Notices and source offers are published in the app and in the public releases repository. Nothing in these terms limits your rights under those licenses.

Your content and your environment

Your files and your Linux environment are yours. You are responsible for what you install and run there, including third-party agents and tools and their own terms.

No warranty beyond the law

PocketShell is provided "as is". We do not exclude liability where the law does not allow it (for example for intent, gross negligence, injury, or under mandatory consumer law). Keep backups of anything important.

Termination

We may suspend a license for abuse, fraud or chargeback. You can stop using PocketShell at any time.

Governing law

German law applies, without removing the mandatory consumer protections of your country of residence.
