BabyStoryThis policy covers billing, automatic renewal, cancellation, and refunds for BabyStory Premium, the app's optional paid subscription. Anything not covered here follows the Terms of Service Subscription & Refunds.
1. What Premium is, and what it costs
BabyStory's care logging and family sharing work without any subscription. Premium is optional and only raises the limits of the free plan.
| Free | Premium | |
|---|---|---|
| Photos per month | 30 | Unlimited |
| Family members | 2 | 20 |
| Babies | 1 | Multiple |
| Logging, widget, icons | Identical — never gated behind the subscription | |
- Monthly — ₩2,900 per month
- Yearly — ₩29,000 per year
Prices shown are for the Republic of Korea and include VAT. In other countries the equivalent price set by Apple for that storefront applies. The amount actually charged is always the one shown in the App Store payment sheet before you confirm.
Premium applies per family. If one member of a baby's record subscribes, everyone sharing that record gets the benefits. A family never needs to pay more than once.
2. Billing and automatic renewal
- Payment is charged to your Apple Account through the App Store. The developer never receives or stores your card or payment details.
- The subscription renews automatically. Unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, you will be charged again for another period of the same length.
- The renewal charge is taken within 24 hours before the current period ends.
- You can manage the subscription and turn off automatic renewal in your App Store account settings after purchase.
2-1. If a free trial is offered
Where a free trial is offered, it converts to a paid subscription automatically unless you cancel before the trial ends. If you buy a paid subscription during a trial, any unused portion of the trial is forfeited.
3. How to cancel
You can cancel at any time, in either of two places:
- iOS Settings → your Apple Account (your name at the top) → Subscriptions → BabyStory → Cancel Subscription
- In the app: Settings → Premium → Manage subscription (this opens the screen above)
After cancelling you keep Premium until the period you already paid for ends, then the account returns to the free plan. Deleting the app does not cancel the subscription.
4. Refunds
Refunds for App Store purchases are handled by Apple. The developer has no ability to cancel a charge or issue a refund on Apple's behalf. Please request a refund here:
- reportaproblem.apple.com — sign in with your Apple Account, choose the purchase, and submit a request
- or iOS Settings → Apple Account → Media & Purchases → View Account → Purchase History → Report a Problem
The developer cannot overturn Apple's decision. That said, if any of the following happened, please write to nerdens.seong@gmail.com — the facts will be checked and, where appropriate, a written confirmation you can submit to Apple will be provided to help your refund succeed:
- You were charged but Premium features did not unlock.
- A defect or outage in the app prevented you from using what you subscribed for.
- The features delivered differ from what was advertised.
Statutory rights
Nothing in this policy limits any right you have under mandatory consumer protection law in your country of residence. Users in the Republic of Korea have the withdrawal rights described in the Korean version of this page.
5. Price changes
If the subscription price increases, Apple notifies you in advance, and the subscription will not renew unless you agree to the new price. Periods you have already paid for are never repriced retroactively.
6. Your data after the subscription ends
Nothing is deleted when a subscription ends. The free plan's limits apply only to what you add from then on.
- Photos you already uploaded stay and remain viewable. Only the number of new photos per month returns to the free limit.
- Family members who already joined stay. Only new invitations are limited.
- Every baby record you created remains, and you can keep switching between them. Only adding a new one is limited.
7. Contact
