Terms of Use
Angelus (Spanish: Ángelus)
Effective date: 28 October 2026
These terms cover the Angelus app. The app is run by Francisco Barros (“we”). By using the app, you agree to them. We’ve kept them short.
The app
Angelus is a Catholic prayer app for iPhone. At the prayer times you set, the apps you choose wait until you pray; then they open until the next prayer time. It’s made for adults.
The prayers are the Church’s standard texts. Angelus is a help for your own prayer; it isn’t an official publication of the Catholic Church.
You stay in control
Angelus uses Apple’s Screen Time to pause the apps you pick, and only those. You can turn off Angelus’s Screen Time access at any time in your iPhone’s Settings, and if your trial or plan ends, the locks switch off. Angelus isn’t a medical or health service.
The subscription
- Angelus has no free plan. It’s one yearly subscription with a 7-day free trial. There is no weekly or monthly plan.
- You buy it through the App Store. Apple’s terms apply to the purchase, and your use of the app is also covered by Apple’s standard Licensed Application End User License Agreement.
- The price in your currency is shown before you confirm. Payment is charged to your Apple Account when you confirm or, if you start with the trial, when the trial ends.
- The subscription renews automatically unless you turn it off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. If you allow notifications, the app reminds you 2 days before your trial ends.
- Cancel any time in your iPhone’s Settings › your name › Subscriptions. Deleting the app doesn’t cancel it. After you cancel, your plan stays open until the end of the period you’ve paid for. How to cancel.
- When your trial or plan ends, the locks switch off and your village stays saved.
- Refunds are handled by Apple under its own rules. We can’t issue them ourselves, but we’re glad to help you ask.
The art and words
Rafi, the village art and the app’s own words belong to us. Please don’t copy, sell or share them publicly without asking us first. The prayers themselves belong to the whole Church, and you’re always free to pray them.
No guarantees
We work hard to make the app reliable. Still, the app is provided “as is”, and to the extent the law allows, we make no promises beyond what these terms say and aren’t responsible for indirect losses from using it. Nothing here takes away rights you have under the law where you live.
Privacy
Your Screen Time data and what you write in the app stay on your iPhone. Read the Privacy Policy for the details.
Changes
We may update the app and these terms. If the terms change, we’ll post the new version here with a new effective date.
