It reflects particular ways of thinking about priority, capacity, and life organisation across multiple life domains. Use freely, adapt thoughtfully, but understand it carries embedded assumptions about how humans organise themselves and manage competing priorities.
Personal Use: Free and unrestricted. Use it, adapt it, share it with family and friends. If it helps you organise your life, that warms our heart.
Commercial Use: This software may not be used for commercial purposes without explicit written permission from MoMo Creative. This includes incorporating features, design elements, or code into commercial products or services.
Interested in using MyLifeCanvas commercially? We're open to conversations about
licensing, partnerships, or custom development. Whether you'd like to integrate our approach
into your own tools or explore other possibilities, we'd love to hear from you.
