Hourside terms

Effective 14 November 2026. Hourside is provided by Big Small Services, a sole proprietorship of Udit Gandhi in India. Contact us with questions about these terms.

Using Hourside

You may install and use an officially distributed Hourside app on devices you own or control, for personal or business use, and keep reasonable backup copies. Hourside requires Android 12 or newer. You are responsible for using it lawfully and for the information you enter or share.

Hourside 1.0.0 is free to use. It has no subscriptions, in-app purchases or advertising. Optional paid features may be offered in a future release with their price and terms shown before a purchase. These terms do not authorize an automatic charge.

Ownership and third-party software

Hourside's original code, artwork and branding are proprietary. Permission to use the app does not transfer ownership or grant access to its source code. Except where applicable law or a separate written agreement permits, do not publish its proprietary source code, modify or redistribute the proprietary app, sell copies or use the branding to imply endorsement. You may share the official download link.

Third-party software and fonts retain their own licences and rights. See third-party notices, also bundled in the app. These terms do not limit rights those licences grant, or statutory rights including permitted interoperability or research. You retain rights in your own saved information.

Times and availability

Hourside is a planning aid. It uses your device's clock and time-zone data; incorrect device settings, outdated time-zone rules, daylight-saving changes or launcher behavior can affect displayed times and widgets. Check important appointments and deadlines independently. The app is not an alarm, emergency, safety-critical or guaranteed scheduling service.

We may release fixes, change features or stop distributing a version. We do not promise a particular support period, response time, update schedule or uninterrupted website availability. Website updates are installed manually; Hourside does not automatically download or install APKs.

Your data and backups

Saved app data stays locally unless you choose to export or share it. Keep a backup before clearing app storage, uninstalling, switching devices or making major changes. Exports are readable, unencrypted JSON files and may contain your labels and contact hours. Import replaces cities and settings only after confirmation and keeps a local copy of the previous state. Imported widget templates do not transfer launcher widget bindings. See privacy and support.

Warranties and liability

To the extent permitted by applicable law, Hourside is supplied as is, without promises of error-free operation, uninterrupted availability, data recovery or suitability for a particular purpose. We are not responsible for losses caused by inaccurate device settings, a third-party provider or your failure to keep a backup, to the extent applicable law permits that exclusion.

Nothing in these terms excludes or limits consumer rights, remedies, warranties or liability that the law does not allow us to exclude or limit. Any mandatory protections in your country continue to apply.

Changes and contact

New terms will carry a new effective date and apply prospectively to the relevant release or service. Material changes will be described with the update. For questions, complaints or requests, use Contact us above. These terms do not impose mandatory arbitration or remove access to courts or regulators available under applicable law.
