These terms govern your use of the iPhone app “Kikioboe” (the “App”) provided by Ryo Tsuzukihashi (independent developer / TsuzuKit, the “Developer”). By using the App, you agree to these terms.
Article 1 (Scope)
These terms apply to everyone who uses the App (“Users”). The App is distributed through the App Store, and Apple's Standard License Agreement (EULA) also applies. If these terms and the EULA conflict, these terms prevail.
Article 2 (About the App)
- The App reads the question-and-answer cards that Users make aloud with the voices on the iPhone, so Users can learn by ear
- Voices and pronunciation depend on the iPhone's speech feature. Misreadings can be fixed with a card's pronunciation field
- There is no account sign-up or login. The App is for iPhone only
Article 3 (Price)
- The App is a paid app purchased once on the App Store. The price shown on the App Store applies
- There are no in-app purchases, subscriptions, or ads. No further payment is requested after purchase
- With the same Apple Account, you can download the App again after a device change or reinstall without paying again
- Refunds follow Apple's policies. Request one through Apple Support (reportaproblem.apple.com). The Developer cannot issue refunds directly
Article 4 (What Users make)
- The content of decks and cards is made by Users, who hold the rights and responsibility for it

Article 7 (Data)
Decks and cards are stored on the User's device and in the User's own iCloud; the Developer keeps no copy. If they are lost through device failure or loss, deleting the App, or iCloud settings, the Developer cannot restore them. We recommend exporting important decks as CSV.
Article 8 (Disclaimer)
- The App is provided as is. The Developer does not guarantee that it is free of errors, always available, or fit for a particular purpose

The Developer may change the App or end its distribution. When these terms change, this page is updated along with the date above.
