Last updated: September 12, 2026
1. Introduction
Welcome to FinchQ.
FinchQ is a health and wellness application for iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch developed by Tightwire, Inc. (“Tightwire,” “FinchQ,” “we,” “us,” or “our”).
These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your use of the FinchQ application, FinchQ-connected services, and related services provided by Tightwire.
Please read these Terms carefully. By downloading, accessing, or using FinchQ, or by accepting these Terms within the application, you agree to be bound by them.
If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use FinchQ.
Our Privacy Policy describes how information is processed when you use FinchQ and is incorporated into these Terms by reference.
2. Apple Terms and Application License
FinchQ is distributed through Apple’s App Store.
Your acquisition and use of the FinchQ application are also subject to applicable Apple terms, including Apple’s Media Services Terms and Conditions and the applicable Licensed Application End User License Agreement.
Unless Tightwire provides a separate Custom EULA through Apple, your license to use the FinchQ application is governed by Apple’s Standard Licensed Application End User License Agreement (EULA).
These Terms supplement applicable Apple terms with respect to FinchQ features and services provided by Tightwire.
If these Terms conflict with a mandatory Apple term governing your acquisition or license of the application, the applicable Apple term controls to the extent of that conflict.
3. Eligibility
FinchQ is intended for adults.
You must be at least 18 years old, or the age of legal majority where you live if higher, to independently agree to these Terms.
You may use FinchQ only where the application and applicable services are legally available to you.
FinchQ does not require a traditional Tightwire account for ordinary use. Certain features may rely on an app-generated identifier, Apple services, device permissions, or connected Tightwire services.
4. Health and Wellness Information
FinchQ is designed to help you better understand information and patterns related to your function, movement, activity, heart health, recovery, and other aspects of wellness.
FinchQ may use selected information available through Apple Health, information you enter, information generated by supported Apple devices, and other information available to supported FinchQ features.
Individual measurements are only pieces of a larger picture. They may vary because of many factors, including device availability, how and when information was collected, activity, environment, daily circumstances, and other factors.
FinchQ does not guarantee that any particular measurement, calculation, trend, score, comparison, report, alert, or other information is complete, current, or error-free.
5. FinchQ Is Not Medical Care
FinchQ is a health and wellness application. It is not a medical device and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, mitigate, or prevent any disease or medical condition.
Information provided through FinchQ is intended for general wellness and informational purposes.
FinchQ does not provide medical diagnosis or treatment and does not establish a physician-patient, therapist-patient, clinician-patient, or other professional healthcare relationship between you and Tightwire, its founders, employees, contractors, service providers, or Q.
Do not rely on FinchQ as a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, treatment, rehabilitation, or clinical assessment.
Always seek appropriate advice from a qualified healthcare professional regarding questions about your health, symptoms, medical conditions, treatment, exercise, or other healthcare decisions.
Do not disregard professional medical advice or delay seeking care because of information provided by FinchQ.
6. FinchQ Score, FinchQ Functional Age™, and Other Insights
FinchQ may provide wellness-oriented calculations, summaries, comparisons, estimates, trends, and insights.
FinchQ Score
The FinchQ Score summarizes selected information available to FinchQ. It is intended to provide a simplified wellness view of selected aspects of function.
It is not a clinical score, diagnosis, medical assessment, or prediction of future health.
FinchQ Functional Age™
FinchQ Functional Age™ estimates how your walking-based physical function compares with age- and sex-related reference patterns. In the current version of FinchQ, Functional Age is based on your usual walking speed measured over time.
FinchQ Functional Age™ is a wellness estimate. It is not your biological age, cellular age, medical age, overall health, life expectancy, diagnosis, or prediction of future health.
Personal norms, trends, and reference information
FinchQ may compare current information with your prior information, personal norms, or selected reference information.
Reference ranges and comparisons are intended to provide context and should not be interpreted as a determination that any particular result is normal, abnormal, healthy, unhealthy, safe, or unsafe for you personally.
7. Fall Risk Estimation and Safety Information
FinchQ may provide fall-risk context, fall-related information, or other safety-oriented wellness features.
FinchQ cannot predict whether or when you will fall.
A fall-risk estimate or related trend is not a clinical fall-risk assessment and should not be relied upon to determine whether you are safe to walk, exercise, remain alone, or perform any activity.
Falls and fall risk can be influenced by many circumstances that FinchQ cannot observe or evaluate.
Consult an appropriate healthcare professional if you are concerned about falls, balance, weakness, dizziness, walking difficulty, or other safety issues.
8. FinchQ Is Not an Emergency or Medical-Alert Service
FinchQ is not an emergency-response service, personal emergency response system (PERS), professional monitoring service, or replacement for 911 or other emergency services.
Do not rely on FinchQ to detect every fall, medical emergency, or dangerous condition.
Do not rely on FinchQ, Apple Watch, My People, push notifications, text messages, or any other connected FinchQ feature as your sole means of obtaining emergency assistance.
Fall-related and safety-related features may depend on factors outside Tightwire’s control, including:
Compatible Apple hardware
Apple software and frameworks
Device settings and permissions
Whether a device is being worn or carried
Battery level
Bluetooth, cellular, Wi-Fi, or internet connectivity
Location availability
Notification settings
Third-party services
Telephone carrier availability
Correct contact information
Recipient availability
Messages or notifications may be delayed, fail to send, fail to arrive, or not be seen or acted upon by the intended recipient.
If you believe you are experiencing an emergency, call 911 or the applicable emergency service for your location.
9. Q
Q is FinchQ’s plain-language assistant.
You may use Q to ask questions about FinchQ information and obtain general explanations and wellness-oriented information.
Q uses artificial intelligence and may generate information that is incorrect, incomplete, outdated, misleading, or inappropriate for your circumstances.
Do not rely on Q for medical diagnosis, medical treatment, emergency decisions, medication decisions, or other decisions requiring professional clinical judgment.
You are responsible for evaluating Q’s responses before relying upon or acting on them.
Where appropriate, consult a qualified healthcare professional.
Do not submit passwords, payment-card information, government identification numbers, complete medical records, or other information that you do not want transmitted for Q processing.
Use of Q is also subject to applicable usage limits and service availability.
Tightwire may limit, suspend, or modify access to Q where reasonably necessary for service capacity, security, abuse prevention, product operation, or compliance with applicable requirements.
10. Pace Coach and Activity Features
Pace Coach and other movement or activity features are wellness tools.
Any cadence, pace, movement suggestion, target, prompt, or related information provided by FinchQ is not individualized medical, rehabilitation, or exercise prescription.
You are responsible for deciding whether an activity is appropriate for you.
Stop an activity and seek appropriate assistance if you experience pain, dizziness, shortness of breath, chest discomfort, unusual weakness, instability, or other concerning symptoms.
Consult a qualified healthcare professional before beginning or materially changing an exercise or activity program when appropriate for your circumstances.
11. Apple Health and Device Information
FinchQ may request access to selected information through Apple Health and other Apple frameworks.
You choose which permissions to grant.
Some FinchQ features require particular information to be available. If permission is denied, revoked, unavailable, incomplete, or unsupported by your device, those FinchQ features may provide limited information or may not function.
You are responsible for information you manually enter into FinchQ and for maintaining accurate information in services and devices under your control.
Tightwire does not control the operation, accuracy, availability, or future functionality of Apple Health, iPhone, Apple Watch, iPad, watchOS, iOS, iPadOS, or other third-party platforms and services.
12. Apple Watch
You can use portions of FinchQ without Apple Watch, but FinchQ is designed to work best with a compatible Apple Watch.
Apple Watch can make additional activity, heart, workout, recovery, and other supported information available to FinchQ through Apple Health and related Apple frameworks.
Some FinchQ features require a compatible Apple Watch and will not be available without one.
Compatible devices, available data types, Apple functionality, and FinchQ features may change over time.
13. My People
My People allows you to invite people you choose to participate in selected FinchQ communication features.
You are responsible for:
Selecting appropriate recipients
Providing accurate contact information
Having authority to provide contact information to FinchQ
Choosing what information you share
Reviewing recipients before sending information
A person’s inclusion in My People does not make that person a professional caregiver, emergency responder, healthcare provider, or person legally responsible for monitoring you.
Tightwire does not guarantee that a My People recipient will receive, read, understand, or respond to an invitation, text message, check-in, fall-related communication, or other supported communication.
Recipients may opt out of applicable text messaging.
14. My Doctors, Reports, and Sharing
FinchQ may allow you to organize selected information and create reports for your own use or for sharing with family members, caregivers, healthcare professionals, or others.
You decide whether to share a report and with whom.
Before sharing, review both the information and the intended recipient.
Once information is sent or shared outside FinchQ, Tightwire cannot control how the recipient stores, uses, redistributes, or protects it.
Reports generated by FinchQ are informational wellness reports and are not medical records prepared or certified by a healthcare professional.
15. FinchQ Free and Included Premium Access
FinchQ may provide different levels of access, including FinchQ Free and FinchQ Premium.
New eligible users may receive an included period of FinchQ Premium access.
The initial 30-day FinchQ Premium period does not automatically begin a paid subscription and does not automatically convert into a paid subscription when it ends.
When the included Premium period ends, applicable FinchQ Free features remain available.
You must affirmatively choose to purchase FinchQ Premium if you wish to continue using features that require a paid Premium subscription.
Eligibility for promotional or included access may be limited and may not be available repeatedly to the same user or installation.
