Terms of Service

Last updated: October 12, 2026

Welcome to HomeGrown! These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of the HomeGrown mobile application ("App") operated by HomeGrown ("we," "our," or "us"). By using the App, you agree to these Terms.

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using HomeGrown, you agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to these Terms, please do not use the App.

2. Description of Service

HomeGrown provides family organization features that may include child profiles, chores, routines, rewards and points, family to-dos, meals and recipes, grocery lists, memories, milestones, a Legacy Journal, important documents, Caregiver Info, family adventures, daily tips, an Activity Feed, notifications, and an optional Family View display. AI-assisted features may include insights, chat, adventures, meal planning, recipes, Product Picks, and email suggestions; availability depends on role, subscription, feature flags, and service status. Family invitations and Google Calendar are Premium features. Gmail and Family View are optional and may depend on account and current availability. Feature access is not guaranteed to every account.

3. User Accounts

Account Creation

To use HomeGrown, you must create an account with a valid email address and password. You are responsible for:

Account Requirements

You must be at least 18 years old to create an account. HomeGrown is intended for adult parents and guardians to manage their family's information.

Family Roles and Access

HomeGrown has owner, partner/member, extended-family, caregiver, and separate Family View guest access. Owners retain family-owner controls. Partner/member accounts have parent-level access to permission-controlled features, but not every owner-only control. Extended-family accounts can view memories, milestones, adventures, chores, rewards, and the Activity Feed by default; AI chat and meal plans are hidden by default. Caregivers can view child profiles, meal plans, and recipes; read Caregiver Info; and perform limited chore and reward actions. Caregivers cannot edit those areas, access documents, memories, milestones, adventures, AI chat, Insights, or the Activity Feed. Parents may change supported member permissions, but cannot override caregiver role restrictions or grant document access. Family View uses a separate scoped session and only the information and actions selected by a parent. You are responsible for choosing trusted members and managing access in Settings.

4. Subscriptions and Payments

Free and Premium Plans

HomeGrown offers a free plan and Premium subscriptions. Current listed Premium prices are $5.99/month or $59.99/year, but prices, offers, and availability can vary by store or region; review the in-app offer before purchase. Premium removes published free-plan limits on supported features and includes family invitations and Google Calendar access. Feature availability remains subject to role, permissions, feature flags, and service status.

Auto-Renewable Subscription Terms

Subscriptions and any auto-renewal terms are presented by the store before purchase. Check the current in-app offer for the available term and price:

Prices, offers, renewal timing, and availability may vary by store or region. The store's purchase screen and subscription terms control the offer presented to you.

Payment Processing

Payment is charged to your Apple ID account or Google Play account at confirmation of purchase. Subscriptions are managed and processed through the Apple App Store or Google Play Store. Payment terms are subject to their respective policies.

Managing and Cancelling Your Subscription

Manage or cancel through the store where you subscribed. You can also use the Manage Subscription option in the app's subscription settings.

Cancellation, access timing, and refund terms follow the store's terms and the offer presented at purchase.

5. User Content

You retain ownership of content you create in HomeGrown, including profiles, photos, chores, routines, rewards, recipes, meal plans, memories, milestones, documents, messages, and notes.

Your prompt and relevant information you have provided may be processed; depending on the feature, this can include names or sensitive family details. The AI Assistant is parent-only, feature-flagged, and proposes actions that require your confirmation. AI output can be incomplete or unsuitable and is:
