Terms of Service
These terms apply to every NaviBeat app: on iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple TV and Apple Watch, on Android phones and Android TV, and on Windows and Linux. By installing or using NaviBeat you agree to them. If you don't agree, please don't use the app.
Who makes NaviBeat
NaviBeat is made by Nenad Jokic, an independent developer in Belgrade, Serbia (“I”, “me”, “we”). You can reach me at support@navibeat.app. The contact details that the stores require are also shown on the store listings.
What NaviBeat is, and what it is not
- It is a client. NaviBeat connects to a Navidrome or OpenSubsonic-compatible server that you run or have access to. It does not host, sell or stream music of its own.
- Your server and your music are yours. You are responsible for the server you connect to and for having the rights to the music on it. I have no access to your server or your library, and I don't control what is on them.
- There is no NaviBeat account. What the app stores and sends is described in the Privacy Policy, which is part of these terms.
Your licence
NaviBeat is licensed to you, not sold. When you install it, and buy it where it is paid, you get a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to use it on your own devices, within the limits of the store or licence key you got it through. All other rights stay with me.
You may not:
- copy, sell, rent, sublicense or redistribute the app, or share or resell a licence key;
- modify it, or reverse engineer, decompile or disassemble it, except where the law expressly allows this despite these terms;
- remove copyright or trademark notices, or get around the licence check, the trial or any other protection in the app;
- use the app, or its code, design or assets, to build or train a competing product;
- use the app to break the law or to infringe anyone's rights.
The Linux build also ships with its own licence file, which says the same things in more detail.
Prices and buying
- Apple devices: bought through the App Store. One purchase covers iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple TV and Apple Watch. Apple handles payment, receipts and refunds, and Apple's Standard EULA applies as well as these terms.
- Android: bought through Google Play. Google handles payment, receipts and refunds, under Google Play's terms.
- Windows: free to use with every feature for five days, then a one-time licence key. Checkout is run by Lemon Squeezy, which is the merchant of record: it takes the payment, charges any VAT and sends the receipt. One key works on up to three computers at a time.
- Linux: free.
Prices are shown in the store or at checkout before you pay. I can change prices for future purchases. That never changes what you already paid for. There are no subscriptions and no in-app purchases.
Refunds
Refunds for App Store and Google Play purchases go through Apple or Google, under their refund policies. For Windows, try the app for the full five days before you buy. If something is wrong after you buy, write to support@navibeat.app first, because most problems can be fixed. Refund requests for Windows are handled through Lemon Squeezy.
When you buy digital content that is delivered right away, you agree that delivery starts immediately, and in the EU and UK that ends the right to withdraw from the purchase once delivery has started. This does not affect your right to a remedy if the app does not work as described.
Updates and changes to the app
I release updates often, and I may add, change or remove features, or change which devices and systems are supported. A purchase covers the app, not a promise of any particular future feature. I'm not obliged to keep releasing updates or to keep offering the app, except where consumer law requires updates to keep the app working as described. Support is by email and is best effort.
Other people's services
NaviBeat can work with services I don't run: your music server, Last.fm, ListenBrainz, MusicBrainz, the Cover Art Archive, lrclib.net, Rockbox, your network speakers and the app stores. They have their own terms, and I'm not responsible for whether they are available or how they behave. If one of them changes or shuts down, the part of NaviBeat that uses it may stop working.
No warranty
To the extent the law allows, NaviBeat is provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement. I don't promise that the app will be free of errors or interruptions, or that it will work with every server, device or file. Keep your own backups of your music and your server.
Limitation of liability
To the extent the law allows, I'm not liable for indirect, incidental, special or consequential loss, or for lost data, lost profits or the cost of replacement software, arising from your use of NaviBeat or from not being able to use it. My total liability for any claim about NaviBeat is limited to the amount you paid for the app in the 12 months before the claim, or 10 US dollars if you paid nothing.
Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law, including for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud, or for gross negligence or wilful misconduct.
Your rights as a consumer
If you are a consumer, you keep every right that the consumer protection law of the country where you live gives you, and nothing in these terms takes those rights away. Where a sentence here would conflict with such a right, that right wins.
Ending the licence
You can stop using NaviBeat at any time by deleting it. Your licence ends automatically if you break these terms in a serious way. When it ends, you must stop using the app and delete it.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the law of the Republic of Serbia, and the courts in Belgrade are competent for any dispute. If you are a consumer living in another country, this does not take away the protection of the mandatory law of your country, or your right to bring a claim in the courts where you live.
Changes to these terms
I may update these terms, for example when the app, the stores or the law change. The date at the top shows the latest version. If a change is significant, I'll say so on this page. Using NaviBeat after a change means you accept the new terms.
