Terms & Conditions

By downloading, installing, or using Montr ("the App"), you agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions. If you disagree with any part of these terms, you may not use the App.

Montr is a display control application for macOS that allows users to:

• Control brightness for built-in and external displays
• Adjust color temperature (Night Shift)
• Create and switch between display profiles
• Set up automatic profile activation triggers
• Use keyboard shortcuts for common actions
• Control contrast on supported displays

Montr requires:

• macOS 14 (Sonoma) or later
• Location permission (optional, for sunrise/sunset calculation)
• Accessibility permission (optional, for keyboard shortcuts)

Note on DDC/CI Support: Hardware brightness control requires external monitors that support DDC/CI. Not all monitors support this feature. Montr provides software brightness fallback for unsupported displays.

Montr grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the App on devices you own or control, subject to these Terms.

You may not:

• Copy, modify, or distribute the App without authorization
• Reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the App
• Rent, lease, or lend the App to third parties
• Use the App for any unlawful purpose

Montr is provided free of charge. There are no subscription fees, in-app purchases, or hidden costs. Donations to support development are appreciated but entirely optional.

You agree to use Montr responsibly and not to:

• Attempt to circumvent the App's security features
• Use the App in any way that could damage or impair its functionality
• Use the App to damage or interfere with connected displays
• Use the App to violate any applicable laws or regulations

Your privacy is important to us. Please review our Privacy Policy to understand how Montr handles your data.

In summary:

• All settings are stored locally on your device
• We do not collect analytics, telemetry, or usage data
• Location is only used locally for sunrise/sunset calculation
• Crash reporting is optional and anonymous

The App and its original content, features, and functionality are owned by Montr and are protected by international copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws.

The Montr name, logo, and all related names, logos, product and service names, designs, and slogans are trademarks of Montr.

The App is provided "as is" and "as available" without any warranties of any kind, either express or implied. We do not warrant that:

• The App will be uninterrupted, secure, or error-free
• The App will work with all display hardware or configurations
• DDC/CI commands will be supported by your monitors
• Any errors in the App will be corrected

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Montr and its developers shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including but not limited to:

• Loss of settings or configuration data
• Display hardware issues
• Eye strain or discomfort
• Interruption of service or App unavailability
• Any damages arising from the use or inability to use the App

We may update the App from time to time to add new features, fix bugs, or improve performance. Updates are delivered via Sparkle and can be disabled in settings.

We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time. If we make material changes, we will notify you through the App or by other means. Your continued use of the App after changes constitutes acceptance of the new Terms.

By default, when Montr quits, it restores your display settings to their pre-Montr state. This ensures no permanent changes are made to your displays if you uninstall the app. This behavior can be configured in settings.

You may stop using Montr at any time by uninstalling the App. Uninstalling will remove all local data stored by the App.

We reserve the right to terminate or suspend access to the App at any time, without notice, for conduct that we believe violates these Terms or is harmful to other users or the App.

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with applicable laws, without regard to conflict of law principles.
