Acceptable use

WishWhip makes small apps and puts them on the public web, so there are things it won't make. These rules apply to what you describe, to the apps made from it, and to what those apps show people. We judge what an app does, not its topic: a quiz that teaches people to spot phishing, a crypto price chart, or a fan page that says it's unofficial are all fine.

What isn't allowed

  1. Apps that ask for passwords, card numbers or sign-in details and send them anywhere else, or that copy the look of a real company's sign-in or payment page.
  2. Apps that pretend to be a real company, organisation or person, or that could easily be mistaken for one.
  3. Anything that offers programs or files to install, or that tries to harm a visitor's device.
  4. Scams: crypto, investment, prize or giveaway schemes, and anything built to trick people out of money.
  5. Sexual content, and anything that is illegal where you or the app's visitors are.
  6. Apps that target, threaten, shame or harass a person or a group.
  7. Pages made to game search engines, or filler produced in bulk.

Also not allowed

  • Collecting other people's personal details without telling them clearly what is collected and why.
  • Using WishWhip to attack, overload or break into other services.
  • Getting around our limits or checks, for example with several accounts, or by describing one app and changing it into another after it's live.
  • Anything else that breaks the law or puts people at risk, even if it isn't listed here.

How we check

Every app is checked automatically against these rules, when it's described and again before it goes live, and most apps are also looked at by a person on our side before they go public.

What happens

An app that breaks these rules isn't put live, or is taken down, and we email its owner why. Repeated or serious breaks close the account. The Terms of use say more.

Seen an app that breaks these rules?

Email us (help@wishwhip.app) with the app's address and what's wrong, and a person will look at it. If you've already typed a password into an app like that, change that password now.
