Welcome to NextClass (also referred to as "the App"). These Terms form an agreement between you and the App's developer, Catcubed Studio (an individual developer, "the developer"), regarding your use of the App. By downloading, installing, or using the App, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agreed to these Terms; if you do not agree, please stop using the App and delete it.
1. The service
The App is a timetable-management tool for individual teacher users, providing semester and bell-schedule setup, a fixed weekly timetable, the day's status, one-off or long-term lesson changes, lesson notes, local class reminders, and round-trip import of App-generated timetable templates.
The App is for personal teaching-schedule management only. It does not provide online teaching, course content, education or training, teacher–student interaction, class collaboration, or school administration services.
Some features (public-holiday marking and legal-text updates) need a network connection to fetch public data. The scope of those requests and the sources they come from are set out in the Privacy Policy.
2. Scope of use
The App is for personal, non-commercial use only. You are responsible for ensuring your use complies with the laws and regulations of your region, and you must not use the App to infringe others' rights or engage in unlawful activity.
The App is intended for teachers and related educators with full legal capacity. If you have no or limited legal capacity, you should use the App with the consent and accompaniment of a guardian.
3. Account and data
The App requires no account registration. The personal and teaching data you create is stored on your device, and you are responsible for its accuracy, completeness, and legality.
The App keeps at most 5 local snapshots, used only to recover from mistakes on the same device—not for file export, cross-device recovery, or cloud sync. Deleting the App, clearing its data, device damage, or the absence of a usable system device backup may all make data unrecoverable.
4. Files and reminders
You should select only Word or Excel files you are entitled to handle, and check the results after pre-filling or importing. Automatic parsing and template validation only reduce data entry; they do not replace your own confirmation of the school's bell schedule and timetable.
Local class reminders are affected by system permissions, device state, and system scheduling, and may be delayed, grouped, or not shown. Reminders are only an aid and do not replace confirming class arrangements through your school's official channels.
5. Intellectual property
The software copyright, interface design, icons, and related intellectual property of the App belong to Catcubed Studio or the respective rights holders. Without written permission, you must not unlawfully copy, modify, decompile, distribute, or commercially redistribute the App.
The open-source components used by the App remain subject to their respective licenses; details are available inside the App.
6. App Store and platform terms
By downloading and using the App through the Apple App Store, you must also comply with Apple's applicable terms of service and Usage Rules. For these Terms, you and the developer further acknowledge:
- These Terms are concluded solely between you and the developer, not Apple; the App and its content are the sole responsibility of the developer, not Apple.
- Apple has no obligation to furnish any maintenance or support for the App.
- To the extent permitted by law, Apple provides no warranty for the App; if the App fails to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple will (if applicable) refund the purchase price you paid for the App; beyond that, Apple has no other obligation with respect to the App.
- The developer, not Apple, is responsible for addressing any user claims relating to the App, including product liability, non-compliance with laws or regulations, consumer protection, and third-party intellectual-property claims.
- You represent that you are not located in a country or region subject to relevant export controls or sanctions, and are not on any relevant prohibited-parties list.
- Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and have the right to enforce them as beneficiaries.
7. Disclaimer
The App is provided "as is" and "as available." The developer will make reasonable efforts to keep the features stable and data handling accurate, but assumes no liability beyond what the law requires for:
- malfunctions caused by the device, operating system, permissions, network environment, or system scheduling;
- inaccurate timetables and reminders caused by user input errors, abnormal file content, or unreviewed results;
- data loss caused by device loss or damage, deleting the App, clearing data, or an unavailable backup;
- result deviations caused by ad-hoc school arrangements, changes to public holiday data, or force majeure.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, the developer is not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential losses arising from the use of or inability to use the App. This clause does not exclude or limit any liability that cannot be excluded or limited by law.
8. Service changes and termination
The App is an offline, local tool whose core features do not depend on the developer's servers to keep running. The developer may update, adjust, or discontinue the App or parts of it for reasons such as feature iteration, technical needs, or compliance, and will endeavor to explain this through app updates or this page. The App contains no in-app purchases or subscriptions, so no paid-refund matters arise.
You may stop using the App and delete it from your device at any time. Stopping use does not affect data already stored on your device, while deleting the App may clear the data in the app sandbox.
9. Amendments to these Terms
The developer may revise these Terms as features and legal requirements change. Revisions will be published on this page, with the date at the top updated. Continuing to use the App after an update is deemed acceptance of the revised Terms.
10. Governing law and dispute resolution
The formation, performance, and interpretation of these Terms are governed by the laws of the mainland region of the People's Republic of China (excluding its conflict-of-laws rules). Where mandatory laws of your location (for example, local consumer-protection law) provide otherwise and cannot be excluded, those provisions prevail for the relevant matters.
Disputes arising from these Terms or the App should first be resolved through friendly consultation; failing that, either party may bring the dispute before a court of competent jurisdiction in accordance with the law.
