Terms of Service

1. The app and these terms

Pocketscribe lets you record your voice, automatically transcribe it, and turn what you said into dated tasks and a calendar. The App is provided by Berke Başbay as an independent developer. These Terms work together with the Privacy Policy, which explains how your data is handled.

From time to time I may update these Terms. If a change is material, the “Last updated” date will change and, where appropriate, you’ll be notified in the App. Continuing to use the App after an update means you accept the revised Terms.

2. Eligibility and your account

You must be at least 13 years old (or the minimum age required in your country) to use the App. To use its core features you create an account with your email address and a password. You’re responsible for keeping your login details secure and for the activity that happens under your account. Please give accurate information and keep it up to date.

3. Acceptable use

The App is for your own personal task and planning use. You agree not to:

• use the App for any unlawful purpose or to record content you have no right to record;
• record other people without any consent required by the law that applies to you;
• upload content that is illegal, harmful, or infringes someone else’s rights;
• attempt to disrupt, overload, reverse-engineer, or gain unauthorised access to the App or its backend;
• resell, rent, or otherwise commercially exploit the App without permission.

4. Your content

Your recordings, transcripts, and tasks are yours. I don’t claim ownership of them. To provide the service, you grant me and my service providers the limited permission needed to store and process your content — for example, transcribing your audio and extracting tasks from it, as described in the Privacy Policy. This permission exists only so the App can work for you, and it ends when you delete the content or your account.

You are responsible for the content you record and for making sure you have the right to record it.

5. Automated and AI-generated results

Transcription and task extraction are automated and rely on AI. They’re usually helpful but they can be wrong, incomplete, or misinterpret what you said — including dates. The results are not professional advice. Please review anything important, and don’t rely on the App as your only record for critical deadlines or commitments.

6. Purchases and subscriptions

The App may offer optional paid features or an auto-renewing subscription (“Pro”). If you buy one, payment is charged to your Apple App Store account at confirmation of purchase. Unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, a subscription automatically renews, and your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours before the period ends.

You can manage or cancel a subscription any time in your Apple App Store account settings. Prices and what’s included may change; where required, you’ll be told in advance and any change applies only going forward. Purchases and any refunds are handled by Apple in line with the App Store terms — I do not process payments and cannot issue App Store refunds directly.

7. Availability and changes

I work to keep the App available and reliable, but it’s provided on an “as available” basis. I may add, change, or remove features, and may suspend or discontinue the App (in whole or in part) — for example for maintenance, security, or where a third-party service the App depends on changes. Some features rely on your device, your internet connection, and third-party services, and may not always be available.

8. Disclaimer of warranties

The App is provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, to the fullest extent permitted by law. I don’t warrant that the App will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that transcripts and extracted tasks will be accurate. Nothing in these Terms limits rights you have as a consumer that cannot be limited by law.

9. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, I will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages, or for any loss of data, missed tasks, or missed deadlines arising from your use of the App. Nothing here excludes liability that cannot be excluded under the law that applies to you.

10. Termination

You can stop using the App at any time and delete your account, which removes your associated data as described in the Privacy Policy. I may suspend or end your access if you materially breach these Terms or use the App in a way that could harm other users, me, or a third party.

11. Apple and the App Store

These Terms are between you and me only, not with Apple, and Apple is not responsible for the App or its content. Your licence to use the App is a non-transferable licence to use it on any Apple-branded product you own or control, as permitted by the App Store Usage Rules.

I — not Apple — am solely responsible for the App and for providing any maintenance and support, and for addressing any claims relating to the App (including product liability, legal or regulatory claims, and claims that the App infringes another party’s rights). If the App fails to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple may refund the purchase price; to the maximum extent permitted by law, Apple has no other warranty obligation for the App.

You represent that you are not located in a country subject to a U.S. Government embargo or designated as “terrorist supporting”, and that you are not on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties. Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and may enforce them against you.

12. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of Türkiye, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules. This does not deprive you of the protection of mandatory consumer-protection laws of the country where you live.
