Just the Links is a native Mac, iPhone, and iPad app I make and sell. These terms apply when you download or use the app.
Just the Links signs into your Mastodon and Bluesky accounts, reads the timelines you choose, and shows posts that contain links. You can open those links in the built-in reader or your default browser, save them for later, share them, and repost a source post using the account that fetched it.
The app is not affiliated with Mastodon gGmbH, Bluesky, or any Mastodon instance.
Full use of the app requires an auto-renewable subscription of $1.99 USD per month (localized by Apple), with a 7-day free trial. Payment is charged to your Apple ID. Apple manages billing, renewal, cancellation, and refunds. Family Sharing is available.
The subscription automatically renews unless you turn off auto-renew at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. You can manage or cancel it in your Apple ID account settings.
If the subscription lapses, you can still open links you already saved in Read Later. Refreshing feeds, adding accounts, changing filters, and saving new bookmarks require an active subscription.
You are responsible for the Mastodon and Bluesky accounts you connect and for following those services' rules. I do not operate those networks and cannot reset their passwords or restore their data.
Use the app only with accounts you are allowed to access. Do not use it to break the law or the terms of Mastodon, Bluesky, or Apple.
The app is provided as-is. I do not warrant that it will be uninterrupted or error-free, or that every link in your social feeds will appear. To the extent allowed by law, I am not liable for indirect or consequential damages, or for content you see or share through the app.
I may update these terms. The date at the top will change when I do. Continued use after an update means you accept the new terms.
