Third-Party Notices

LabFox is Apache-2.0 open source, and its mobile apps are sold for a price in the app stores. It includes the third-party components listed below, and states each license and copyright notice.

⚠️ This document is a legal obligation. Permissive licenses such as MIT, BSD, and Apache-2.0 also require a copyright notice and the full license text to be included. Whenever a dependency is added, it must be recorded here.

In-app display

Flutter collects dependency licenses automatically. It must be exposed in the app's settings screen.

showLicensePage(
  context: context,
  applicationName: 'LabFox',
  applicationLegalese: '© 2026 sloki9637',
);

LabFox itself is also Apache-2.0, so it is displayed on this screen as well. Because LicenseRegistry automatically collects the LICENSE files of pub packages, this screen alone satisfies the notice obligation for most pub.dev dependencies. Code copied in directly, and assets such as fonts and icons, are not collected automatically, so register them manually.

LicenseRegistry.addLicense(() async* {
  yield LicenseEntryWithLineBreaks(
    ['<component>'],
    await rootBundle.loadString('assets/licenses/<component>.txt'),
  );
});

Permitted licenses

License Paid distribution allowed Conditions
MIT ✅ Copyright notice + full license text
BSD-2 / BSD-3 ✅ Copyright notice + full license text
Apache-2.0 ✅ Notice + statement of changes + pass on the NOTICE file if one exists
ISC ✅ Copyright notice
Zlib ✅ Notice (state modifications)

Forbidden licenses

License Reason
GPL-2.0 / GPL-3.0 copyleft propagation — nullifies Apache-2.0, blocks App Store distribution
AGPL Stronger copyleft — extends even to network use
LGPL Flutter links statically → the dynamic linking exception cannot be used
SSPL / BUSL / Commons Clause Restricts paid distribution
No license No rights granted = cannot be used

GPL is forbidden not because it is not open source. LabFox is already open source. If copyleft propagates, users who receive the paid app gain the right to demand the source and redistribute it for free, which breaks the paid model and also conflicts with Apple's terms.

Always check the license before adding a dependency. (AGENTS.md §8)

Its BSD-3-Clause license permits commercial distribution; copyright and full license text are collected from the package LICENSE by Flutter's in-app license registry. No new package version is introduced.

Fonts, icons, and images are also subject to license review. In particular, icon sets often have restrictive commercial-use conditions, so verify before adopting them.
