New Mercies: Bible & Prayer

Terms of Use

Effective November 11, 2026

These terms are an agreement between you and Colosimo Ventures LLC ("we", "us") about your use of New Mercies (the "app"). By using the app you agree to them. If you don't agree, please don't use the app.

Using the app

You may use the app for your personal, non-commercial use. You can read the Bible and use most features without an account. To create an account you must be at least 13 (or the age of digital consent where you live, if higher). The Companion is for people 17 and older. If you're under 18, please use the app with a parent or guardian's permission.

Keep your sign-in email secure. You're responsible for what happens in your account.

Your content

Your notes, highlights, prayers and other content stay yours. You give us permission to store, sync and process them only as needed to run the app for you, as explained in our Privacy Policy. Don't put content in the app that you don't have the right to use.

Acceptable use

Please don't:

  • break the law, or use the app to harass, threaten or harm anyone;
  • try to get into other people's accounts or data, or test our security without written permission;
  • overload, reverse engineer, scrape or interfere with the app or its servers, except where the law allows;
  • use the AI study help to produce content that's illegal, hateful or sexually explicit, or to get around its safety protections;
  • resell or redistribute the app or its AI answers as your own service.

We may suspend or close accounts that break these rules.

Scripture

The Bible translations in the app (the Berean Standard Bible, the King James Version and the World English Bible) are in the public domain. You're free to copy and share them.

AI study help

"Ask about this passage" and the Companion use artificial intelligence to suggest explanations and reflections. Please read them with care:

  • AI answers can be incomplete or wrong, including about what a passage means. Check them against Scripture itself. Verses the app shows as Scripture are checked against the bundled Bible; anything else is the AI's own words.
  • They aren't pastoral, medical, psychological, legal or financial advice, and they don't replace your church, a pastor, or a licensed professional.
  • If you or someone else may be in danger, call or text 988 (in the US) or your local emergency number. The app shows crisis resources when it can, but it can't monitor you or get help for you.
  • Free accounts have usage limits; Premium has generous fair-use limits to prevent abuse.

Premium subscriptions

  • Prices: Premium is $6.99 per month or $39.99 per year (prices may vary by country and include tax where required). The yearly plan includes a 7-day free trial for new subscribers.
  • Auto-renewal: your subscription renews automatically at the end of each period at the then-current price, and your Apple ID or Google Play account is charged, unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the period ends. If you start a free trial, you'll be charged when it ends unless you cancel before then.
  • Cancelling: cancel anytime in your App Store or Google Play subscription settings (Settings → Premium → Manage or cancel subscription takes you there). You keep Premium until the end of the period you've paid for.
  • Refunds: purchases are handled by Apple or Google under their refund policies; ask them for a refund. We can't issue refunds for store purchases ourselves.
  • Price changes: we'll give you notice before a price increase applies to you, as the store and the law require.
  • What's always free: reading the Bible, all translations, highlights, notes (up to 50), prayers, reading plans and the Verse of the Day.

Changes to the app

We keep improving the app, which means features can change. If we remove a Premium feature you paid for in a way that matters, we'll tell you and point you to how to cancel.

Ending your use

You can stop using the app and delete your account at any time from Settings → Account. We may suspend or end access if you break these terms or if we have to stop offering the app; if we stop offering it, we'll try to give you notice and a chance to export your content.

Disclaimers

The app is provided "as is" and "as available". To the fullest extent the law allows, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy and non-infringement, and we don't promise the app will be uninterrupted or error-free.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent the law allows, we won't be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for lost data or profits, arising from your use of the app. Our total liability for any claim is limited to the greater of the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim or US $50. Some places don't allow these limits, so they may not apply to you. Nothing in these terms limits rights you have under consumer law that can't be waived.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of Ohio, USA, without regard to conflict-of-law rules, except where your local consumer law says otherwise.

Apple App Store terms

If you got the app from Apple's App Store:

  • These terms are between you and us, not Apple. Apple isn't responsible for the app or its content.
  • Your license is limited to using the app on Apple-branded devices you own or control, as allowed by the App Store's Usage Rules.
  • Apple has no obligation to provide maintenance or support for the app.
  • If the app fails to meet any applicable warranty, you can notify Apple, and Apple will refund the purchase price (if any). To the maximum extent the law allows, Apple has no other warranty obligation for the app.
  • We, not Apple, are responsible for handling any claims about the app, including product liability claims, claims that it doesn't meet legal or regulatory requirements, and consumer protection or privacy claims.
  • If someone claims the app infringes their intellectual property, we, not Apple, are responsible for the investigation, defense, settlement and discharge of that claim.
  • You confirm you're not located in a country subject to a US government embargo or designated as "terrorist supporting", and you're not on any US government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
  • You must follow any third-party terms that apply when using the app (for example, your wireless data agreement).
  • Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these terms and may enforce them against you.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms. If a change matters, we'll tell you in the app before it takes effect. If you keep using the app after that, you accept the new terms.
