Third-Party Notices: Verse Gardens
Last updated: January 1, 2026 App: Verse Gardens (Android) · Provider: Verse Gardens · Contact: versegardens@gmail.com
Verse Gardens is a proprietary, commercial application, owned by Verse Gardens with all rights reserved. It uses certain third-party software components, listed below, each under its own license. We are grateful to the authors and communities behind these projects. This document lists the components and their licenses. Each component remains the property of its respective owners and is used under the terms of its own license; the licenses below govern your use of those components, not these notices.
This is a notice file for the major dependencies; the in-app "Licenses" screen (generated from the build) is the authoritative, version-pinned list of all transitive dependencies.

(In the United Kingdom the KJV is subject to Crown letters patent; outside the UK it is public domain. Verse Gardens' launch markets are NA and Western Europe.)
