What are the freeform acknowledgments in settings?

That's pretty standard boilerplate. It's saying that all copies of the software have to have the acknowledgments. "Derivative works" doesn't mean documents created with the software.

I don't think Freeform users face any requirements. Apple is just required to included that stuff with the Freeform app in all its devices.

Freeform is an all-new app available starting today, included in the latest versions of iOS, iPadOS, and macOS. Freeform helps users ...

Freeform is a great place to bring your ideas to life. Sketch out a project, design a mood board or start a brainstorming session on a flexible canvas that supports almost any kind of file. And with iCloud, all your boards stay in sync, whether you’re on your Mac, your iPad or your iPhone.

Features

Unleash your creativity

• Add photos, video, audio, documents, PDFs, web links, stickies and more anywhere on a Freeform board, perfect for creating a digital pinboard, collecting research for a school project or gathering inspiration for your home renovation.

• Use your finger, or Apple Pencil on a compatible iPad, to draw anywhere on the canvas. Choose from a variety of brush styles and colours.

• Create beautiful diagrams with a library of over 700 shapes and alignment guides to help make your document look just the way you’d like.

• Scan paper documents with the built-in document scanner to archive documents and even annotate them if you’d like, directly on the board.

Collaborate with others

• Invite your friends or colleagues into your board for real-time collaboration. Freeform brings people together into a shared space for creativity, whether you’re at your desk or on the go. Easily invite others via email, link or Messages.

• Brainstorm together with up to 100 collaborators in the same board.

• Communicate with Messages or FaceTime. When you’re working on a board with others, you can jump into the associated Messages conversation or start a FaceTime call with your collaborators with a single tap.

Certain features are available only in selected languages and regions.

Apple launches Freeform: a powerful new app designed for ...

I’m actually curious about the same thing because of the SwiftProtobuf and Apache license. Been looking around since I found the Pinterest app to have a ton of acknowledgements like iglistkit Facebooksdk and cocoapods, so I’d also like to know what all of this means.

I asked about T&C’s/Acknowledgements

Why do you think you need to do something about that stuff?
