Terms of Use — RecapBird

App: “RecapBird” on Google Play (recapbird.ai.note.taker.voice.recorder.summary) · Developer: KLapp

Effective date: October 31, 2026

These terms are the agreement between you and KLapp (“we”), the developer of RecapBird. The first screen of the app says: “By starting you accept our Terms of Use and Privacy Policy, including ads measurement and personalization (Google, Apphud).” By tapping Get started, or by using the app, you agree to these terms. Our Privacy Policy explains what data the app uses and why.

1. The app

RecapBird records audio, or takes an audio or video file you choose, sends the audio to our servers and returns a transcript and an AI summary that you can copy and share. Audio is processed by our AI service providers to make your notes. Your notes are kept on your phone, and we keep no backup of them. You never create an account with us. RecapBird is meant for adults: you must be 18 or older to use it. AI features are not available in every country.

2. Free use and the subscription

• Free: the app includes a sample note and one free AI note (a transcript and summary of one recording or file). The app shows the free note and its maximum length. The free note may be unavailable in some countries or paused at times.
• Subscription: more AI notes need the weekly subscription, the only plan. The app shows what is free, what needs the subscription and the price before you buy.
• Usage limits apply and may change.

3. Subscriptions and billing

• Google Play billing. The subscription is sold through Google Play and paid with your Google Play payment method; we manage it with our subscription service, Apphud. Your card details go only to Google.
• Price. The price, in your currency, is shown in the app and on Google Play's purchase screen before you confirm.
• Automatic renewal. The subscription renews automatically every week, and Google Play charges the weekly price at the start of each week until you cancel.
• Free trial. New subscribers may be offered a 3-day free trial. If you are offered it, the app and Google Play's purchase screen show it and the weekly price that follows before you confirm. When the trial ends, the subscription starts and Google Play charges the weekly price, unless you cancel before the trial ends. If Google Play does not offer the trial to your account, for example because you have had it before, the subscription starts at the weekly price and is charged at once.
• Price changes. A new price applies to an existing subscription only as Google Play's rules for price changes allow.
• Checking and restoring. We check your subscription status with Apphud when you ask for a new AI note. If you reinstall the app or change phone, use Restore in the app with the same Google account.

4. Cancelling, refunds and the end of the subscription

• Cancel at any time in Google Play: open Google Play subscriptions, choose the RecapBird subscription and tap “Cancel subscription”. In the app, Settings → Manage subscription opens the same page. If you cancel during the free trial before it ends, you are not charged.
• Deleting the app does not cancel your subscription, and neither does deleting your data. Only cancelling in Google Play stops the payments.
• After you cancel, the subscription stays active until the end of the period you have already paid for, and you are not charged again. When it ends, you can no longer make new AI notes beyond what is free. The notes already on your phone stay there.
• Refunds. You pay Google Play, and refunds follow Google Play's refund policies. You can also write to us about a charge (section 14). If a purchase is refunded, your subscription access ends. This does not limit any refund rights you have under the law where you live.

5. Using the app

• We give you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to use RecapBird on devices you own or control, under these terms and Google Play's terms.
• Use the app lawfully, and only for recordings and files you have the right to use. Do not use it to record people secretly where that is not allowed, to harass anyone, or to process content that is illegal.
• Do not get around the free note, the subscription, usage limits or our protection against abuse, do not overload or interfere with our servers, and do not resell, copy, modify or reverse-engineer the app, except where the law allows.
• We may limit or stop your use of the app, for example the free note or processing, if you break these terms or abuse the service.
• The app's design and the sample note are ours. The app includes open-source components under their own licences, listed in the app under Settings → About RecapBird → Open-source licences. Those licences, not these terms, govern your use of those components.

6. Recording other people

You must get the consent of the people you record before you record them, and follow the recording and privacy laws where you and they are. Some places allow recording if one person in the conversation agrees (“one-party consent”); others require everyone's consent (“two-party” or “all-party” consent). Before you record or import a conversation, check which rule applies. You are responsible for what you record and import, and for telling the people in it that it will be processed by AI service providers if the law or good practice requires it. We cannot check whether you have the right to a recording.

7. AI output

Transcripts and summaries are made automatically by AI and may be inaccurate or incomplete: words can be misheard, speakers mixed up, and a summary can leave out or misstate something. Check anything important against the recording before you rely on it, and do not rely on RecapBird alone for medical, legal, financial or safety decisions. If a summary is wrong, offensive or reveals private information, tap Report on that summary; we receive the summary and your reason so we can review it.

8. Your content and your data

• Your recordings, transcripts and summaries are yours. You allow us and our service providers to process them only to make your transcript and summary, to review a summary you report, and as the Privacy Policy describes. Neither we nor the service providers that process your notes use them to train AI models.
• Your notes are kept on your phone; our servers hold only temporary processing copies and summaries you report (90 days), as the Privacy Policy describes. If you uninstall the app, clear its storage or lose the phone, they are gone. Copy or share the notes you want to keep.
• The app has no in-app control that deletes all server data of your install; deleting a note also deletes its remaining copies on our servers. To have your data on our servers deleted, use Settings → Privacy and data → Delete my data, which opens an e-mail to us with your Install ID; the Privacy Policy (section 9) and our deletion page explain how we carry it out, which limits apply to analytics data, and what we keep (the free-note record, subscription records, the 24-hour install count, and a short deletion record, with their periods and purposes).

9. Other services

Google Play, Apphud, our speech-to-text and AI providers and the other services the app uses are run by others under their own terms, and we are not responsible for how they run them. This does not limit our own responsibility for the data they process for us, as the Privacy Policy describes.

10. No warranty

We work to make RecapBird reliable, but it is provided “as is” and “as available”. To the extent the law allows, we make no promises beyond those in these terms, including that the app or its AI features will always be available, or that a transcript or summary will be accurate.

11. Limitation of liability

To the extent the law allows, KLapp is not liable for indirect or consequential loss, or for decisions made on AI output, and our total liability for any claim about the app is limited to the greater of what you paid us for it in the 12 months before the claim and 50 US dollars. Nothing in these terms limits liability that the law does not allow us to limit, such as for death or personal injury caused by our negligence or for fraud, or your rights as a consumer under the law where you live.

12. Changes to the app

We may change the app and its features, and we may stop offering it. You can stop using the app at any time by uninstalling it.

13. Changes to these terms and your consumer rights

We post each new version of these terms here with a new effective date. If you keep using the app after a change, the new version applies. When you tap “Get started”, the app records on your phone which version you accepted.

If you are a consumer, you keep the protection of the mandatory laws of the country where you live.
