If you have an eligible offer code for Lifetime Access, open Apple's secure redemption sheet inside the app. Apple handles the code and payment flow. Optional account, on-device workouts Routines, workouts, timers, and InBody records work without signing in. Apple or Google sign-in is used only for account identity, support, and lifetime account access. SteadyLift has no ads, analytics, or tracking. Routines, workout progress, ratings, history, InBody images, recognized text, and confirmed body values are not synced to the account. If you are signed in and StoreKit finds an eligible App Store lifetime entitlement, the Apple-signed non-consumable transaction is sent for server verification. Necessary transaction identifiers, product, status, environment, purchase time, and verification time are linked to the account for restoration, refund or revocation handling, and duplicate-link prevention. This does not include a full card number or Apple ID password. Account deletion does not erase Apple’s original transaction. Deleting the app removes local data; Apple controls device backup and transfer behavior. SteadyLift is a general fitness, timing, and self-tracking tool. Form guides and manually entered measurements are for personal reference only. The app does not provide medical diagnoses, treatment, rehabilitation guidance, personalized exercise prescriptions, or professional coaching. Stop exercising and seek qualified help if you experience pain, dizziness, chest tightness, or other discomfort.
