What this is

Time-Blind is a reminders app for people who lose track of time. It holds your reminders and your calendar, works out how far away the next thing is, and tells you before the moment rather than at it. It is one of the Spice Rack® family from Neuro Spicy Ltd, and it uses the same account.

What it cannot promise

A notification has to cross your phone's operating system, your network and a push service run by Apple or your browser's maker, none of which we control. Phones go flat, aeroplane mode exists, and notification permissions get turned off by accident. Nearly always it arrives. We cannot promise that any single one will.

So do not make Time-Blind the only thing standing between you and something that would be dangerous to miss. Medication in particular belongs on a dedicated alarm as well as here. The same goes for anything where a missed reminder means real harm or real money. Use it as the thing that catches what you would otherwise forget, not as the last line of defence.

It is not medical

Time-Blind does not diagnose anything, does not treat anything, and gives no medical advice. Time blindness is a real difficulty, common with ADHD and autism among other things, and a reminders app is a coping tool, not an assessment. Questions about your health or medication belong with your doctor. If you are struggling with something bigger than a calendar, please talk to someone: Samaritans on 116 123, free and any time, NHS 111, or 999 in an emergency.

Reading documents

Capture sends the photo, PDF or text you give it to an AI service to find the dates in it. It gets things wrong, especially with bad handwriting, odd layouts and anything implied rather than stated, which is why nothing is ever added to your calendar until you have looked at what it read and confirmed it. Check the dates. You are the one who confirms them.

Only upload documents that are yours to upload. Because an appointment letter can contain health details, this needs a separate consent, and you can withdraw it in Settings at any time.

Linked contacts

You can allow another person to send you reminders. They see nothing else of yours: not your reminders, not your calendar, not what you have captured. Every reminder they send carries their name.

Whoever sent you a reminder can also change it or take it back, because the words are theirs. They are not told whether you have done it. If you delete one, it stops showing on their list.

Use it kindly. Reminders sent to somebody else must not be abusive, threatening or harassing, and an account used that way will be closed.

If somebody sends you something they should not have, open the reminder and press Report it. They are blocked at that moment, a copy of what they sent is kept so deleting the reminder does not lose it, and a person here looks at it. You can also just remove them from your contacts, which takes one tap and takes effect at once. To reach us directly, email support@neurospicy.group.

Anyone over sixteen can remove any contact at any time, for any reason or none.

Accounts for under-sixteens

Someone under sixteen can use Time-Blind with a parent or guardian linked to their account. The parent approves anyone else who wants to send them reminders, and can refuse or remove those contacts.

A parent or guardian also sees whether the reminders they sent have been ticked off. That is the whole of it: not the child's own reminders, not their calendar, not anything else. It stops when they turn sixteen.

If you are the parent, you are agreeing to these terms on your child's behalf and you are responsible for the account. Once they turn sixteen, they can remove any contact including you.

Your part

Keep your login to yourself and use your own account. Do not try to break into anybody else's data, and do not hammer the service in a way that spoils it for other people. Be sixteen or over, or have a parent or guardian on the account.

Your data

It is yours. It is stored in the UK, nobody else reads it, and you can export or delete it whenever you like. The privacy policy sets out exactly what is held, which companies help run the service, and how to get it all back or erased.

Ending it

You can delete your Time-Blind data from Settings at any moment, which leaves your Spice Rack® account alone. We can close an account that is being used to harass somebody or to attack the service, and we would tell you why. The app is provided as it is, and while we will fix what we can, we are not liable for a missed appointment.

Changes

We will update these terms as the app grows. If a change matters, we will tell you rather than bury it. These terms are governed by the law of England and Wales.
