Terms
The essential terms for using Deadline Desk on Windows, Android, Mac, iPhone and iPad.
Updated 17 October 2026
Free version
The free version permits up to three active deadlines with the included categories. Completed deadlines do not count toward the active limit.
Optional subscription
Pro unlocks unlimited active deadlines and editable categories. Apple purchases use the App Store, the Google Play Android edition uses Google Play, and Windows purchases use Stripe. A separate Deadline Desk account is not required to purchase locally. Available plans, currency, trial eligibility and renewal terms are shown before purchase. Auto-renewable plans renew according to those terms unless cancelled; specifically non-renewing offers end without renewal.
Promotional and offer codes
Offers follow the duration, eligibility, redemption deadline and renewal conditions displayed by their purchase provider. An offer may start immediately or follow an eligible introductory period, depending on its configuration. A non-renewing free offer ends automatically. Codes are not for resale, have no cash value and may have redemption limits. Apple offer codes require an Apple Account and acceptance of Apple’s applicable usage terms. Existing redemptions and store rights remain subject to the provider’s terms.
Cancellation
Cancel renewal through the purchase provider: Apple Account subscriptions, Google Play subscriptions, or the Stripe customer portal opened from Deadline Desk on Windows. For normal paid subscriptions, access generally continues until the paid expiry date reported by the provider. Trials and promotional offers follow their own displayed conditions; Apple recommends cancelling a trial at least 24 hours before its end to avoid renewal. Cancellation does not itself request a refund. Deleting the app or an account does not cancel renewal.
Refunds
For Apple purchases, use Apple’s refund request service. For Google Play purchases, follow Google Play’s refund guidance. For Windows Stripe purchases or help identifying a charge, contact info@deadlinedesk.app. Eligibility is determined by the applicable provider and law; a refund or revocation may end Pro access. Mandatory consumer rights in your country continue to apply.
Stripe computer activation and recovery
A Stripe Windows Pro activation is for one computer at a time. Move it to a replacement or reset computer by verifying the email address associated with the Stripe purchase. Completing recovery deactivates the previous Windows installation. A Deadline Desk sync account is separate from that purchase email and does not remove the activation limit.
Optional connection and purchase sharing
Compatible editions let you connect devices to the same Deadline Desk account after a backup-and-sync review. Future edits and deletions can then reach all connected devices. Purchase sharing is optional, separately verified and limited to one linked existing account at a time. Native purchase access remains with its provider; account deletion does not cancel or refund it. Feature availability differs by platform and release; consult the FAQ.
Your content and backups
Keep an independent copy of important task data. Sync is not a permanent backup: edits and deletions can propagate. Local automatic recovery files can be lost with app deletion or device loss. Optional iCloud Drive backup copies require a supported Apple edition and available iCloud storage; their history is subject to retention. Restore summaries explain the operation before confirmation. Task backups do not restore sign-in credentials or Pro.
Testing and release availability
TestFlight and Google Play testing editions may differ from publicly released apps. Sandbox/test-card purchases have test-only behaviour and may use accelerated expiry. A test purchase does not grant a live cross-platform entitlement. Store pages determine public download availability; an update under review is not yet a public release.
Availability
Reasonable efforts are made to keep Deadline Desk and subscription verification available, but uninterrupted operation cannot be guaranteed. Recently verified Pro access can continue offline for a limited grace period.
