Terms of use.

Agreement

These Terms of Use ("Terms") are a legal agreement between you and Cosine Technologies LLC ("Cosine", "we", "us") and govern your use of the Huqqs application for iOS, iPadOS, macOS, and Android ("Huqqs" or "the App"). By downloading, installing, or using Huqqs, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the App.

App store terms apply

Apple devices. On iPhone, iPad, and Mac, Huqqs is distributed through the Apple App Store. Your use of the App is also governed by Apple's Standard End User License Agreement (EULA). That EULA is incorporated here by reference and controls the license grant, usage rules, warranty disclaimers, and Apple's role as a third-party beneficiary. These Terms supplement, and do not replace, the Apple Standard EULA.

Android devices. On Android, Huqqs is distributed through Google Play. Your use of the App is also governed by the Google Play Terms of Service. These Terms are between you and Cosine only; Google is not a party to them and is not responsible for the App.

What Huqqs does

Huqqs is a music visualizer and live-lyrics app for iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Android devices. It listens to music playing around you through your device's microphone, identifies songs via Apple's ShazamKit, fetches time-synced lyrics, and renders reactive GPU visuals that move with the music. A dancing pet companion can appear on screen. Huqqs does not play music or provide a music library.

Huqqs Pro subscriptions

Huqqs is free to download, with synced lyrics for 10 songs a week, a selection of stages, and one pet. A Huqqs Pro subscription unlocks every stage and every pet, lyrics without the weekly limit, live translation, and automatic stage picks.

Plans and pricing

Prices shown are in US Dollars. Prices in other territories are set through Apple's and Google's regional pricing and may vary. Applicable taxes may be added. The currently-offered price will be displayed in the App's subscription screen before you confirm a purchase.

Billing and auto-renewal

• Payment is charged to your Apple ID or Google Play account at confirmation of purchase.
• Your subscription automatically renews at the same price and billing period unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
• Your account will be charged for renewal within 24 hours prior to the end of the current period.
• If offered, the free trial portion of a subscription is forfeited when you purchase Huqqs Pro before the trial ends.

Managing and cancelling

You can view, manage, and cancel your subscription at any time:

• On iPhone/iPad: Settings → [your name] → Subscriptions
• Apple, online: apps.apple.com/account/subscriptions
• On Android: Google Play → Profile → Payments & subscriptions → Subscriptions
• Google Play, online: play.google.com/store/account/subscriptions
• From inside Huqqs: Settings → Manage Subscription

Cancelling stops the next auto-renewal; you retain Pro access until the end of the period you've already paid for. Deleting the App does not cancel the subscription.

Refunds

Subscription purchases are processed by Apple or Google, depending on where you subscribed. Refund requests are handled under Apple's refund policy or Google Play's refund policy. Cosine cannot issue refunds for store purchases directly.

Restore purchases

If you reinstall Huqqs or switch devices while signed into the same Apple ID or Google account, you can restore an existing subscription from the App's paywall via the "Restore Purchases" button.

License

Subject to these Terms and the applicable app store terms above, Cosine grants you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and use Huqqs on devices you own or control, solely for personal, non-commercial use. All rights not expressly granted are reserved by Cosine.

Acceptable use

You agree not to:

• Reverse-engineer, decompile, or disassemble the App, except to the extent permitted by applicable law.
• Copy, modify, distribute, sell, sublicense, or create derivative works based on the App.
• Use the App to violate any law, infringe any third-party intellectual-property right, or harass others.
• Attempt to bypass, disable, or interfere with security features, rate limits, or subscription checks.
• Use the App to record, reproduce, or redistribute copyrighted music, lyrics, or visuals in a way that exceeds what's permitted by the source rights-holders.

Third-party services and content

Huqqs integrates with third-party services, each governed by its own terms. Song identification uses Apple ShazamKit; lyrics come from Musixmatch and LRCLIB; song genre and duration are looked up via the public iTunes Search API. Huqqs does not own the underlying lyrics or music metadata displayed; those are licensed from or sourced by those third parties. See our Privacy Policy for the full list.

Intellectual property

The Huqqs name, logo, visual stages, shader code, pet designs, UI, and all associated original content are the property of Cosine Technologies LLC and are protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual-property laws. These Terms do not grant you any right to use Cosine's trademarks.

Disclaimers

THE APP IS PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, COSINE DISCLAIMS ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. Song identification accuracy depends on ShazamKit; lyrics availability depends on third-party providers; visual output depends on your device's capabilities. We do not warrant that the App will be error-free, uninterrupted, or that every song will be recognized or have lyrics available.

Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL COSINE BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, OR GOODWILL, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR USE OF THE APP. COSINE'S TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS WILL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT YOU PAID TO COSINE (THROUGH APPLE OR GOOGLE) IN THE TWELVE MONTHS PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM. Some jurisdictions do not allow these limitations, so portions may not apply to you.

Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, USA, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles. Any dispute arising under these Terms is subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in California. Where the Apple Standard EULA or Google Play's terms contain their own governing-law provisions, those continue to apply to matters they cover.

Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by updating the "Effective" date at the top of this page. Your continued use of the App after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

Termination

We may suspend or terminate your access to the App if you materially breach these Terms. You may stop using the App at any time by deleting it. Termination of these Terms does not cancel an active subscription; you must cancel through Apple or Google Play as described above.
