Our mobile apps are moving to Howarth Software
Everything to do with the apps is being moved across to howarthsoftware.co.uk, our parent site, so that it can focus on the mobile apps and other software. Every app, its screenshots, support, privacy and terms are already there, and that is where new apps will appear first.
Howarth Games, this sister site, covers a lot more: the Commodore 64 games, the studio, the years making gaming machines and the rest of the story.

Legal
- Privacy policy What is collected and what is not: nothing from the site, and from the apps only an email address, a user ID, a device ID and purchase history, for subscriptions and push notifications.
- Terms of use The licence, how the monthly and quarterly subscriptions renew and cancel, and that first aid guidance is reference rather than veterinary advice.
- Privacy policy, in-app version The same notice, stripped to the document alone, as the apps show it.
- Terms of use, in-app version The same terms with no navigation, hero or footer — the copy the iPhone apps open from their Settings screen, and the one Apple's reviewers follow from the App Store listing.
