Terms of Service

Last updated: October 26, 2026

These terms are an agreement between you and Batuhan Toyhan, the developer of Tups, and cover your use of the app and this website. By downloading or using Tups, you agree to them. If you do not agree, please do not use the app.

01About Tups

Tups is a rhythm laboratory with four modules (TUPS, A&R+, PATTERN and TUP LAB) and a metronome, for musicians of every level. It needs no account, and its practice features work offline; buying, restoring purchases and updates need an internet connection.

02License and Use

2.1 License

We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use Tups on devices you own or control, subject to these terms and your app store's rules.

2.2 What you can do

• Use Tups for your own practice, study and music making
• Use it while you teach, in lessons, in rehearsals and on stage
• Use what you create with Tups, including exported MIDI files, in your own music, commercial or not, with no royalties to us
• Use Tups sounds inside your own music, recordings and performances

2.3 What you can't do

• Reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the app, except where the law allows it
• Remove or change any copyright or proprietary notices
• Copy, resell, or redistribute the app or its content, or extract its sounds to share or sell them as samples or sound packs
• Get around the purchase system to unlock Pro features

03Free, Pro and Payments

3.1 Free and Pro

Many features of Tups are free to use with no time limit. Tups Pro unlocks the rest, through one of these options:

• Monthly: an auto-renewing monthly subscription
• Yearly: an auto-renewing yearly subscription, with a 7-day free trial for eligible first-time subscribers
• Lifetime: a one-time purchase with no renewal

Current prices are shown in the app and in your app store before you buy, and may differ by country.

3.2 Free trial

During the trial you have full access to Tups Pro. If you don't cancel before the trial ends, it converts to a paid yearly subscription. On the App Store, cancel at least 24 hours before the trial ends.

3.3 Auto-renewal and cancellation

Subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each period and are charged to your Apple or Google account, unless you cancel. On the App Store, cancel at least 24 hours before the current period ends. You can manage or cancel your subscription anytime in your App Store or Google Play account settings. Deleting the app does not cancel a subscription.

3.4 Lifetime

Lifetime is a single payment that unlocks Tups Pro on the same App Store or Google Play account for the life of the Tups app, with no renewal. If we stop selling Lifetime, existing Lifetime purchases keep working. Buying Lifetime does not cancel a subscription you already have; cancel it in your store settings to avoid further charges.

3.5 Payments and refunds

All payments are processed by Apple or Google. For App Store purchases, refunds are requested from Apple, which decides under its own rules. For Google Play purchases, you can ask Google Play or write to us, and we can refund through Google Play where appropriate. Cancelling a subscription stops future renewals but does not by itself refund a past charge. Nothing here limits your rights under consumer protection law.

3.6 Restoring purchases

On a new device or after reinstalling, tap “Restore Purchases” in the app while signed in to the same store account.

04Your Content and Data

4.1 Your content

You keep any rights you have in the patterns, presets, designs and other content you create in Tups; we claim no ownership of them. This does not give you ownership of Tups' own sounds, built-in presets or software. Your content is stored on your device; we do not receive it. When you share a preset as a link, anyone with that link can open it. See our Privacy Policy.

4.2 Backups

Deleting the app deletes your local content. Your device's own backups (such as iCloud or Google backup) may restore it, but we cannot recover lost data, so please keep the presets you care about backed up.

05Intellectual Property

Tups and its content, including software, design, graphics, sounds, texts and the Tups name and logo, are protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws. All rights are reserved, except for the rights these terms give you.

06Disclaimer and Limitation of Liability

6.1 Disclaimer

To the extent the law allows, Tups is provided “as is” without warranties of any kind. We do not guarantee that the app will be error-free or always available.

6.2 Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, we shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising from your use of the app. Nothing in these terms limits rights you have under consumer protection law that cannot be waived.

07Privacy

Please read our Privacy Policy to understand what we collect and why.

08Updates and Changes

8.1 App updates

We regularly release updates to improve Tups and add features. We may also change which features are free or part of Pro, and Pro prices; a change in price does not affect a period you have already paid for.

8.2 Changes to these terms

We may update these terms from time to time. We will change the “Last updated” date above and, for material changes, let you know in the app before they take effect. Continued use after changes means you accept the updated terms. Changes never take away what you have already paid for.

09Termination

We may limit your access to Tups if you seriously break these terms, for example by getting around the purchase system, and only as far as needed. Where we can, we will tell you why and give you a chance to sort it out. You can stop using Tups at any time by deleting it; remember to cancel any subscription in your store account.

10Governing Law

These terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of Türkiye, and the courts of Türkiye have jurisdiction, without excluding other courts that are competent by law. If you use Tups as a consumer, you keep the protection of the mandatory laws of the country where you live and your right to bring a claim or complaint there.

If something goes wrong, we'd welcome a chance to fix it first, so please write to us. Most problems can be solved with one email. This does not limit any of your legal rights or deadlines.
