SoundPull Terms of Use

In force from 2026-10-02 · written for SoundPull 1.4

These terms are the agreement between you and naruberio, the developer and publisher of SoundPull, about how you may use the app. Installing, opening or using SoundPull means that you accept them. If you do not accept them, please do not use SoundPull.

You may accept these terms only if you are old enough, under the law of the place where you live, to enter into a binding contract. You must also follow the terms of the App Store from which you got SoundPull.

What SoundPull does, and what you pay for

SoundPull works entirely on your iPhone. It extracts the soundtrack of a video, converts audio files, joins the sound of several videos or audio files into one audio file, exports a video with its sound removed, and turns recorded speech into text or SRT subtitles. Audio is saved as M4A, MP3, WAV or M4R (ringtone) files, and nothing you process is uploaded to us. The Privacy Policy explains exactly what happens to your files.

• One price, everything included. SoundPull is a paid app. Buying it once on the App Store unlocks every feature. There are no in-app purchases, no subscriptions and no ads.
• Apple processes the payment. Apple Inc. handles the purchase through the App Store and shows the price in your local currency, based on the price level we select.
• Refunds are Apple's decision. We do not receive your payment directly, so we cannot refund it ourselves. To ask for a refund, go to reportaproblem.apple.com; Apple decides under its own policies.
• Other devices. You can download SoundPull again at no extra cost on any device signed in with the Apple Account you bought it with.

Use SoundPull only with media you are entitled to use

SoundPull is designed for your own recordings and for other material you are authorised to use, such as a clip you filmed, a voice memo you recorded or audio you have a licence to edit. Each time you open, convert, merge or transcribe something in SoundPull, you represent and warrant that you hold every right needed to do so, for each item involved and for the file you create.

You must not use SoundPull to:

• get around, or try to get around, DRM, encryption or any other copy protection;
• extract, convert or keep audio from purchased, rented, streamed or otherwise protected media that you are not entitled to copy;
• infringe anyone's copyright, trademark or other intellectual property, or anyone's privacy, including the privacy of people whose voices are in a recording you transcribe or share.

SoundPull refuses to process DRM-protected content and offers no way to remove or bypass copy protection. You alone are responsible for making sure that your use of the app respects the law and the rights of others.

Your files stay yours

You keep full ownership of the media you bring into SoundPull and of everything you make with it: audio files, merged files, silent videos, transcripts and subtitles ("your content"). Because your content is processed on your device and never reaches us, we cannot see it and we claim no rights in it.

Your content is your responsibility, and that includes keeping backups of anything you want to hold on to. SoundPull deletes its own working copies as described in the Privacy Policy, and deleting the app removes what it stored on the device.

What you agree not to do

• Decompile, disassemble or otherwise reverse engineer SoundPull, or try to derive its source code, beyond what applicable law expressly allows despite this restriction.
• Use SoundPull for anything unlawful, or in a way that breaks the section on media you are entitled to use.
• Interfere with how SoundPull works, or disrupt it.

Apple's standard licence

SoundPull is licensed to you, not sold. The licence is Apple's standard Licensed Application End User License Agreement (the "Apple EULA"), published at apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula. The Apple EULA forms part of these terms. Should the two ever conflict, the Apple EULA prevails on the subjects it deals with, and these terms prevail on every other subject. There is one exception: as between you and naruberio, the sections below on limits on liability and on governing law and courts prevail over the Apple EULA.

No warranty

SOUNDPULL IS SUPPLIED ON AN "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT THE LAW ALLOWS, WE GIVE NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AND WE SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIM ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND OF NON-INFRINGEMENT.

In particular, we do not promise that SoundPull will run without interruption or errors, that it can open every video, audio file or codec, that transcripts or subtitle timings will be accurate, that on-device recognition will be available for your language, or that defects will be fixed.

Limits on liability

EXCEPT AS SET OUT IN THE LAST PARAGRAPH OF THIS SECTION, AS FAR AS THE APPLICABLE LAW PERMITS, NEITHER NARUBERIO NOR APPLE WILL BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING LOST RECORDINGS OR OTHER DATA, ARISING FROM OR CONNECTED WITH YOUR USE OF SOUNDPULL.

Except as set out in the last paragraph of this section, for all claims relating to SoundPull taken together, our total liability to you is capped at the amount, if any, that you paid for the app during the 12 months before the claim.

Nothing in these terms excludes or limits liability for damage caused by intentional misconduct or gross negligence on the part of naruberio, its representatives or anyone acting on its behalf, or any other liability that the law does not allow to be excluded or limited.

Stopping, and changes to the app

You can stop using SoundPull whenever you like by deleting it. We may change, suspend or withdraw SoundPull, or any of its features, at any time and without notice. When your use ends, the parts of these terms that by their nature are meant to continue, such as the sections on warranty, liability and governing law, still apply.

Revisions to these terms

We may revise these terms. Each material revision changes the date at the top of this page, and the current text is always at naruberio.github.io/soundpull-legal/terms.html. Using SoundPull after a revision takes effect means you accept the revised terms.

Governing law and courts

Japanese law governs these terms, without regard to its rules on conflicts of laws. The courts of Fukuoka, Japan have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute arising from or relating to these terms or SoundPull, except where consumer protection law that applies to you does not allow such an agreement.
