Slate — Terms of Use

Last updated: July 23, 2026

Slate is a private voice journal made by HSLA0001 Inc. By using Slate you agree to these terms.

The subscription

  • Slate is a paid app with an auto-renewing subscription: $7.99 per month or $59.99 per year, after a one-month free trial.
  • Slate also offers a one-time lifetime purchase of $99.99. It does not renew, has no trial, and includes everything the subscription includes.
  • Payment is charged to your Apple account at confirmation of purchase. The subscription renews automatically unless it is canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
  • You can manage or cancel the subscription anytime in your Apple account settings (Settings → your name → Subscriptions). Canceling the trial before it ends means you are never charged.
  • If your subscription lapses, everything already written on your phone stays yours. Recording new entries requires an active subscription or the lifetime purchase on supported devices.

Your content

  • Everything you record belongs to you. It lives on your device (and, only if you turn on backup, in your own iCloud account). We never receive it, so we claim no rights over it and can take no responsibility for storing it.
  • Deleting an entry, or the app, deletes your data. There is no server copy to ask us to remove; there is also no server copy to recover for you.

The reflections

Reflections and weekly reviews are generated on your device by Apple’s on-device models. They are observations about your own words, offered as-is. They are not advice of any kind, and Slate is not a medical, psychological, or crisis service. If you are in crisis, contact local emergency services or a crisis line.

The usual

  • Slate is provided as-is, without warranties, to the extent permitted by law. Our liability is limited to the amount you paid us in the twelve months before the claim.
  • Apple’s standard Licensed Application End User License Agreement applies where these terms are silent.
  • We may update these terms; material changes will be reflected on this page with a new date above.
