4. AI-Generated Content & “Advice”

The personalized insights in the “Insight” tab are generated by artificial intelligence (Google Gemini via Vertex AI) based on your question and traditional I Ching principles.

These insights are for entertainment, reflection, and personal-growth purposes only. They are not professional medical, psychological, financial, legal, or any other form of regulated advice. You should not rely on them for decisions that require qualified professional guidance.

You are solely responsible for how you interpret and act on any content provided by the App.

5. In-App Purchases & Credits

  • Credit packs are non-refundable (except where required by law) and are processed through the Apple App Store.
  • Credits are used to unlock personalized AI insights (1 credit = 1 insight).
  • Unused credits do not expire as long as the App remains available on the App Store.
  • Prices are shown in the App and may change; any price change will not affect purchases already made.

Apple’s standard EULA applies to all in-app purchases:
