THE APP & LICENCE

Your licence to use Repose

The app

Repose is a personal reading application that lets you import, organise and read your own ebooks, PDFs and comics on your desktop. It is provided as-is, with no warranties of uninterrupted or error-free operation. Features may change between versions.

Licence

Low Tide Studio grants you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to use Repose on your devices for personal, non-commercial purposes. You may not copy, modify, distribute, reverse engineer, or sublicense the app or sell access to it.

Your content

You retain full ownership of any content you import into Repose - your books, highlights, notes, and reading data are yours. You are responsible for ensuring that any content you import does not infringe the rights of others.

RULES & LIMITS

Acceptable use and disclaimers

Acceptable use

Use Repose only for lawful purposes and in a way that does not infringe the rights of others. You may not use Repose to store or distribute content that is illegal, harmful, or infringing.

Trial and purchase

Repose is free to use for 30 days, with every feature. After that, opening a book needs a one-time purchase, made through the Microsoft Store, which takes the payment under its own terms of sale. There's no subscription, and every future version is included. Your library, highlights, notes and settings stay yours whether or not you buy. Refunds are covered by our Refund Policy.

Disclaimer & liability

Repose is provided “as is” without warranty of any kind. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Low Tide Studio is not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of or inability to use the app.

GOVERNING LAW

Effective date: October 2026

These terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of South Africa. Any disputes arising from these terms or your use of Repose shall be subject to the jurisdiction of the South African courts. Nothing in these terms limits your rights under consumer protection law. We may update these terms from time to time - continued use after changes constitutes acceptance. Questions?
