Note: These Terms and Conditions apply exclusively to the Fragments mobile application. Other Tonic Works LLC applications have their own separate terms and conditions.
Terms and Conditions
1. Acceptance of Terms
Welcome to Fragments, a dream journal application ("App") owned and operated by Tonic Works LLC ("Company", "we", "us", or "our"). By accessing or using the Fragments mobile application, you agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions ("Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms, please do not use the App.
2. Description of Service
Fragments is a mobile application that allows you to capture and organize dream entries in a visual, fragment-based format. The App provides features including but not limited to:
- Capturing short dream "fragments" and optional titles
- Organizing and connecting fragments in a visual mind map
- Viewing your dream history in a calendar
- Full-text search across your dream entries
- Optional local reminders (e.g., daily reminder, streak nudges)
- Sharing a dream with others via a link that contains a copy of that dream's content
The current version of the App is free and stores all data locally on your device. No account is required. There are no cloud backup or sync features in this version.
3. Eligibility
You must use the App only in accordance with applicable laws. By using the App, you represent and warrant that:
- You have the legal capacity to enter into these Terms
- You will comply with all applicable laws and regulations
- You will not use the App for any unlawful or prohibited purpose
Fragments is not directed at children. We do not collect personal information from any user; the App stores data only on your device.
4. No Account Required
4.1 Current Version
The App does not require an account in the current version. We do not maintain user accounts or logins for the core journal functionality. All data you create is stored locally on your device.
4.2 Your Responsibility for Data
You are responsible for your device and any local data. We do not have access to or control over data stored only on your device. Because there is no cloud sync in the current version, we cannot restore your data if you lose your device or uninstall the App. Use your device's backup and storage settings as you see fit.
5. User Conduct and Responsibilities
5.1 Acceptable Use
You agree to use Fragments only for lawful purposes and in accordance with these Terms. You agree NOT to:
- Use the App in any way that violates applicable laws or regulations

5.2 Your Content
You are solely responsible for all content you create, store, or share using the App. We are not responsible for any content you create or for how others use links or content you share.
5.3 Sharing
When you share a dream via the App's share feature, you are responsible for who receives the link and what content it contains. The link carries an encoded copy of the dream you chose to share. We do not host or store that content on our systems. Anyone with the link can view that dream; do not share links with people you do not trust.
6. Future Features and Premium Plans
We may in the future offer premium or paid features, which could include cloud backup, sync across devices, or other functionality that involves storing data on our or third-party systems. Such features are not part of the current build. If we introduce them:
- Additional terms and a separate or updated privacy policy may apply
- Payment terms (e.g., subscription, one-time purchase) will be disclosed at the time of offer, including through the App Store
- Your use of those features will constitute acceptance of the applicable terms
Until then, the App remains free and local-only as described in these Terms and the Privacy Policy.
