Terms of Use

Last updated 7 October 2026

These terms are the agreement between you and Skippy (“we”, “us”) for using the Skippy app on iPhone and Apple Watch and the website getskippy.app. By downloading or using Skippy you agree to them. If you do not agree, please do not use the app.

You need to be old enough to enter into this agreement where you live, or have the permission of a parent or guardian.

Using the app

We give you a personal, non-transferable licence to use Skippy for your own, non-commercial purposes on Apple devices you own or control, as allowed by the App Store's usage rules. You may not:

• copy, sell, rent or sublicense the app;
• reverse engineer or modify it, except where the law gives you that right regardless of these terms;
• use it in a way that breaks the law or harms other people.

Exercise safely

Jumping rope is strenuous exercise. Talk to a doctor before you start if you have a heart condition, joint or back problems, are pregnant, or have any other health concern. Stop straight away if you feel pain, dizziness or shortness of breath.

Make sure you have enough clear space, a suitable floor and nothing the rope can hit. When you use the camera, place your iPhone where it cannot fall and where the rope cannot reach it. You are responsible for how and where you exercise.

Not medical advice, and numbers are estimates

Skippy is a fitness app, not a medical device. Nothing in it is medical advice, and it must not be used to diagnose or treat any condition.

Jump counts, move names, pace, heart rate, heart rate zones and energy are estimates made by your devices' sensors. They can be wrong, and we do not promise that they are accurate.

Your data

What the app records stays on your devices. The details are in ourPrivacy Policy.

Price

Skippy is currently free. If we add paid features later, the price and conditions will be shown before you buy, and purchases will go through the App Store.

Our rights in the app

The app, the website, the Skippy name and logo, and their design and content belong to us or our licensors and are protected by law. These terms do not give you any rights in them beyond the licence above. If you send us ideas or feedback, we may use them without owing you anything.

Changes and availability

We may update Skippy, change or remove features, or stop offering it. We do not promise that the app will always be available or free of errors.

Warranty and liability

Skippy is provided free of charge and “as is”. As far as the law allows, we give no warranty that it is accurate, uninterrupted or fit for a particular purpose.

We are fully liable for damage we cause intentionally or through gross negligence, for injury to life, body or health that we cause, and wherever the law does not allow liability to be limited. In all other cases, as far as the law allows, we are not liable for damage arising from your use of the app, including injury during exercise, damage to your devices or property, and lost data.

The rights you have as a consumer under the law of your country are not affected.

Ending these terms

You can stop using Skippy at any time by deleting the app. Your licence ends automatically if you break these terms.

Apple

The following applies because you get the app from Apple's App Store:

• These terms are between you and us, not Apple. We, not Apple, are responsible for the app and its content.
• Apple has no obligation to provide maintenance or support for the app.
• If the app does not meet a warranty that applies to it, you may tell Apple, and Apple will refund what you paid for the app, if anything. As far as the law allows, Apple has no other warranty obligation for the app.
• We, not Apple, are responsible for any claims about the app, including product liability claims, claims that it fails to meet a legal requirement, and claims under consumer protection or privacy law.
• If someone claims that the app infringes their intellectual property rights, we, not Apple, are responsible for dealing with that claim.
• You confirm that you are not in a country under 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 keep to any third-party terms that apply when you use the app, such as your mobile data agreement.
• Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these terms. Once you accept them, Apple has the right to enforce them against you.

Changes to these terms

We may change these terms. The new version will be published on this page with a new date, and it applies from then on if you keep using the app. If a change is important, we will point it out in the app or on the website.
