Terms of Use
1. Accepting these terms
These Terms of Use (the “Terms”) form a binding agreement between you and STORIES AR LLC, a Wyoming limited liability company and the developer of Lifoto (“we”, “us”), covering the Lifoto iPhone app and the website at lifoto.app (the “Service”). By downloading, installing or using Lifoto you accept these Terms. If you do not accept them, do not use the Service.

Our Privacy Policy is part of these Terms. You must be at least 13 years old, or the minimum age of digital consent where you live, to use Lifoto.
2. Licence
We grant you a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to install and use Lifoto on Apple-branded devices that you own or control, as permitted by the App Store Terms of Service and including devices in your Family Sharing group where we have enabled it. The Service is licensed, not sold. We retain all rights in the app, its models, design and brand.
You may not: copy, sell, rent, sublicense or redistribute the app; reverse engineer, decompile or disassemble it except where that restriction is prohibited by law; remove watermarks or proprietary notices other than through the app's own setting; use automated means to access our providers through the app; or circumvent credit balances, the paywall or any technical restriction.
3. Free credits
Every installation of Lifoto starts with a number of free credits, with no account and no payment details. Videos carry a small "Made with Lifoto" watermark. Free credits are given once per device, do not refresh, do not transfer between devices, and have no cash value. We may change the number of free credits for new installs.
4. Credit packs
Lifoto sells credits in one-time packs. Credits are spent inside the app: one credit brings a photo to life, and a Pro video with a custom motion prompt uses more (the current cost is shown in the app before you spend).
- One-time purchases. A credit pack is a single payment. Nothing renews and there is nothing to cancel.
- Prices. The price of each pack is shown in the app and in the App Store for your region before you buy; it varies by country with local taxes and currency. Comparison figures on the purchase screen (such as a price per video) are calculated from those same prices.
- Billing. Payment is charged to your Apple ID account at confirmation of purchase.
- Purchased credits never expire. Credits have no cash value, cannot be exchanged for money, and cannot be transferred to another person.
- Failed videos. If a video you spent credits on fails to generate, those credits are returned to your balance.
- Your balance. Your balance is stored on your device and mirrored to your other devices through iCloud when iCloud is enabled. "Restore Purchases" asks the App Store to resend your purchases to the app. If you delete the app and iCloud is off, we may be unable to recover credits you bought.
- Buyer settings. Once you have bought or redeemed any credit pack, you may turn off the watermark and choose whether purchased credits are spent automatically when the camera finds a photo.
- Offer codes. Credits may also be granted through App Store offer codes. Redeemed credits follow the same rules as purchased ones.
- Refunds. Purchases are handled by Apple, so refunds are governed by Apple's policy and requested through Apple, not us. We cannot issue refunds for App Store purchases. Credits from a refunded purchase may be removed.
5. Changes to credit costs
We may change how many credits a feature uses, or the contents and prices of packs offered for future purchase, for example when our AI providers change their prices. Credits you already hold stay in your balance.
6. Your content
“Your Content” means the photos you point the camera at and choose to animate, the prompts you write, and any video you attach from your photo library.
- You keep ownership. We claim no ownership of Your Content.
- You give us only what we need. You grant us and our processing providers a limited licence to store, transmit and process Your Content strictly to operate the Service and produce the video you requested. Nothing more. We do not use Your Content to train models and we do not license it to anyone.
- You promise you have the rights. You confirm you own Your Content or otherwise have permission to use it, including permission from any identifiable person appearing in it, and that using it through Lifoto breaks no law and no one else's rights.
7. AI-generated output
Lifoto uses generative AI. That has consequences you should understand before relying on the result:
- Output is probabilistic. The same photo can produce different motion on different runs, and results range from convincing to strange. This is a property of the technology, not a defect in the app.
- Output is a creative interpretation, not a record. It invents motion that never happened. Do not present a Lifoto video as documentary footage, evidence, or a real recording of anyone.
- Similar inputs may produce similar outputs for other users; we cannot promise your result is unique.
- As between you and us, you own the videos you generate from Your Content, subject to these Terms and our providers' terms. Whether AI output attracts copyright at all varies by country and is outside our control.
- You are responsible for how you use and share what you generate.
8. Acceptable use
You must not use Lifoto to create, store or share content that:
- sexualises minors in any way, or depicts child sexual abuse;
- is intimate or sexual imagery of a real person made or shared without their consent;
- impersonates a real person, or fabricates their words or actions, in order to deceive, defraud, harass or defame;
- infringes copyright, trademark, privacy or publicity rights;
- promotes violence, terrorism, self-harm or unlawful discrimination, or harasses or bullies anyone;
- violates any applicable law, or the terms of Apple or of our AI providers.
You must also not attempt to disrupt the Service, probe or attack our providers through the app, extract our API keys, or use the app to build a competing service.
We may suspend or terminate access to the Service, and refuse to process content, if we reasonably believe this section has been breached.
9. Availability and changes
Lifoto requires an AR-capable iPhone running iOS 26 or later, plus an internet connection for video generation. We may change, suspend or discontinue features at any time, including because a third-party AI provider changes its own service, pricing or availability. If we discontinue the Service materially and permanently, purchases already made are handled under Apple's refund policy.
We may update these Terms. Material changes will be reflected in the “last updated” date and, where significant, noted in the app's release notes. Continued use after a change means you accept the revised Terms.
10. Disclaimer of warranties
To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Service is provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, and any warranty about the accuracy, quality, aesthetics or usefulness of generated videos. We do not warrant that detection will recognise every print, that generation will always succeed, or that the Service will be uninterrupted or error-free.
Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits rights you have as a consumer that cannot be excluded or limited under the law of your country of residence.
11. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for lost profits, lost data, or loss of goodwill, arising out of or relating to the Service — including loss of markers or videos stored only on your device, which you should back up if they matter to you.
Our total aggregate liability for all claims relating to the Service is limited to the greater of (a) the amount you paid us for the Service in the 12 months before the claim arose, or (b) US$50.
You agree to indemnify us against claims, damages and reasonable costs arising from Your Content, from your use of the Service, or from your breach of these Terms or of any law.
12. Apple-specific terms
These provisions apply because Lifoto is distributed through the App Store:
- These Terms are between you and us only, not with Apple. Apple is not responsible for Lifoto or its content.
- Apple has no obligation to provide maintenance or support for Lifoto. Support requests go to evdodima@gmail.com.
- If Lifoto fails to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple and Apple will refund the purchase price. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Apple has no other warranty obligation whatsoever with respect to Lifoto.
- We, not Apple, are responsible for addressing any claim by you or a third party relating to Lifoto, including product liability claims, failure to conform to legal requirements, and consumer protection claims.
- We, not Apple, are responsible for investigating and defending any third-party claim that Lifoto infringes intellectual property rights.
- You confirm you are not located in a country subject to a US Government embargo or designated as “terrorist supporting”, and that you are not on any US Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
- Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and, upon your acceptance, have the right to enforce them against you.
13. Termination
You may end this agreement at any time by deleting Lifoto. We may suspend or terminate your access if you breach these Terms. Sections that by their nature should survive termination (content licences already granted, disclaimers, liability limits, indemnity, governing law) survive it.
14. Governing law, disputes and contact
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Wyoming, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules, and the state and federal courts located in Sheridan County, Wyoming have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute — except as stated in the next paragraph.
If you are a consumer, nothing in this clause deprives you of the protection of the mandatory consumer-protection laws of your country of residence, or of your right to bring proceedings in the courts of the place where you live, where those laws grant it.
Before starting any formal dispute, please email us — most problems are faster to fix directly.
