NTFS File Manager

Fast USB OTG & internal storage, direct NTFS/exFAT access

Home Help & Feedback Privacy Policy Terms of Service

Terms of Service

Effective date: September 14, 2026 · Applies to app version 1.1.0 and later · What changed in this version

These Terms govern your use of NTFS File Manager. Three sections deserve your attention before the rest: Section 5, because the App now sells a recurring subscription that renews automatically; Section 13, because this app can permanently delete files and erase entire drives when you ask it to; and Section 17, because the App can publish your files onto a network and you, not the Developer, are the operator when it does.

Who you are contracting with. These Terms are an agreement between you and the developer of NTFS File Manager ("the Developer"), whose name, registered address and contact email address are published on the App's Google Play listing, under "App support" / "Developer contact". Google is not a party to this agreement, but is the merchant of record for any purchase you make — see Sections 5 and 28.

1. Acceptance of terms

These Terms of Service ("Terms") form a binding agreement between you and the Developer. By downloading, installing, accessing or using the NTFS File Manager Android application (the "App"), you agree to be bound by these Terms and by our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference. If you do not agree to these Terms, do not download, install or use the App, and uninstall it if you already have.

2. Eligibility and age

You must be capable of forming a legally binding contract to accept these Terms. The App is intended for users aged 13 or over, or the higher minimum age that applies where you live (16 in some EEA member states). If you are under the age of majority in your jurisdiction, you may use the App only with the involvement and consent of a parent or legal guardian who agrees to be bound by these Terms on your behalf, and only that parent or guardian may make a purchase under Section 5.

3. Description of the app

The App is a file-management utility for browsing, copying, moving, renaming, deleting, compressing and formatting files and drives on your Android device, including USB On-The-Go (OTG) drives formatted as NTFS, exFAT or FAT. It also provides:

  • supporting file-management features — bookmarks, a trash/recycle bin for internal storage, thumbnail previews, an optional credential-gated Safe Folder, a duplicate finder, a storage analyser, a junk cleaner, and an installed-apps browser for extracting and managing APKs;
  • media and document tools — image, audio and video players, a photo editor, a document scanner that uses your camera, and a PDF suite (viewer, page manager, annotator, converter, compressor, merger and splitter);
  • optional Cloud connections to your own Dropbox or Microsoft OneDrive account (Section 15);
  • optional Network connections to SMB, SFTP, FTP, FTPS and WebDAV servers you already have access to (Section 16);
  • optional built-in servers that publish a chosen storage area to your local network over HTTP, WebDAV or FTP (Section 17); and
  • optional online media features that browse and play content from public third-party services (Section 18).

The App requires no account of its own. It is offered in a free, advertising-supported tier and an optional paid Premium tier, described in Sections 4 and 5. The App is not an exclusively offline application: the features listed above communicate over the network, as the Privacy Policy describes in detail.

4. Free and Premium tiers

The App may be downloaded and used free of charge. The free tier is supported by advertising (Section 8) and includes internal, SD-card and cloud storage, exFAT and FAT USB drives, the browser-based file-sharing server, the duplicate finder, the junk cleaner and the PDF conversion tools.

An optional Premium subscription removes advertising and unlocks additional features, which at the effective date of these Terms are NTFS read/write on USB OTG drives, the SMB/SFTP/FTP/WebDAV network clients, the device's own WebDAV and FTP servers, and Parallel Storage transfers. Some users hold a legacy one-time "lifetime" unlock purchased in an earlier version; that purchase continues to be honoured and is not affected by these Terms' subscription provisions.

The Developer may change which features sit in which tier, add features to either tier, or discontinue a feature. Where a change would remove from the Premium tier a material feature you are currently paying for, the Developer will give reasonable advance notice and you may cancel under Section 5; the Developer will not retroactively move a feature you already paid for out of a lifetime unlock you already hold.

5. Subscriptions, billing, auto-renewal and price changes

Read this before subscribing. Premium is a recurring subscription that renews automatically until you cancel. The price, billing period and any introductory or free-trial terms are shown to you on the purchase screen inside the App and again on Google Play's own confirmation screen before you are charged. Nothing is charged until you complete that Google Play confirmation.

Billing

Premium is offered on a monthly or yearly billing period. Payment is charged to your Google Play account at confirmation of purchase. Google Play is the merchant of record for every purchase; the Developer does not process, receive or store your payment details (see Section 6 of the Privacy Policy).

Automatic renewal

Your subscription renews automatically at the end of each billing period, at the then-current price for your plan, unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Google Play charges the renewal within 24 hours before the period ends.

How to cancel

You can cancel at any time, for any reason, and without giving a reason, through Google Play → Profile → Payments & subscriptions → Subscriptions, or at play.google.com/store/account/subscriptions. Cancelling stops the next renewal. Your Premium access continues until the end of the period you have already paid for, and a partial period is not refunded except as required by law or under Sections 6 and 7. Uninstalling the App does not cancel a subscription — you must cancel through Google Play.

Free trials and introductory offers

If an offer includes a free trial or a discounted introductory period, its length and the price that follows are disclosed on the purchase screen. Unless you cancel before the trial or introductory period ends, it converts automatically into a paid subscription at the standard price for that plan. An offer may be limited to one per account or per device, and the Developer or Google may withdraw eligibility where an offer is being abused.

Price changes

The Developer may change subscription prices. A price increase will not take effect for an existing subscriber until the start of a billing period beginning at least 30 days after notice is given, notice will be given through Google Play and in the App, and — where Google Play or applicable law requires it — the increase will not be applied to you unless you accept it. You may always avoid a price change by cancelling before it takes effect.

If a subscription lapses

If a renewal payment fails, Google Play may retry it and may place the subscription in a grace or account-hold period. If the subscription ends, Premium features lock and advertising resumes; no file you created, copied or saved is deleted, altered or made inaccessible because a subscription ended. Files already on your storage remain yours and remain readable, and you can still access and move them using the free tier or any other tool.

Restoring a purchase

Premium is tied to the Google account that bought it. Reinstalling the App or changing device restores the entitlement when you sign in to that account; the App also provides a "Restore purchases" action.

6. Right of withdrawal (EU, EEA and UK consumers)

If you are a consumer resident in the European Union, the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, you have a statutory right to withdraw from a purchase of digital content or a digital service within 14 days of concluding the contract, without giving a reason.

However, that right is lost once supply of the digital content or service has begun, where you gave your prior express consent to it beginning during the withdrawal period and acknowledged that you would thereby lose the right of withdrawal. Because Premium unlocks immediately on purchase, this exception will normally apply if you have started using Premium. To the extent that supply has not begun, or that your local law gives you a broader right, nothing in these Terms limits it.

To withdraw where the right still applies, contact the Developer at Section 32, or use Google Play's own refund process (Section 7), which in practice is the faster route since Google holds the payment. Your statutory rights as a consumer are not affected by anything in these Terms.

7. Refunds

Because Google Play is the merchant of record, refunds are handled by Google Play under the Google Play refund policy, and the Developer cannot issue, process or reverse a charge directly. Google Play generally allows a self-service refund within 48 hours of purchase, and will consider requests outside that window.

If Google declines a refund and you believe you are entitled to one — because a Premium feature you paid for does not work as described, or because your statutory rights under Section 6 or local consumer law apply — contact the Developer at Section 32 with your order number. The Developer will review the request in good faith and, where it agrees a refund is due, will support your request with Google. Nothing in this Section limits any non-waivable statutory refund or remedy you have as a consumer.

8. Advertising and rewarded unlocks

The free tier displays advertising served by Google AdMob, including banner, interstitial and rewarded formats. Section 5 of the Privacy Policy describes what data that involves and how to control it. Advertisements are selected and served by Google, not by the Developer; the Developer does not endorse, verify or take responsibility for the content of any advertisement, or for any product, service or website an advertisement leads to. Any dealing you have with an advertiser is between you and that advertiser. You agree not to interfere with, block within the App, automate interaction with, or otherwise manipulate the display of advertising — though you remain free to use any device- or network-level tools of your own choosing, and the honest route to an ad-free App is Premium.

The App may offer a rewarded unlock: watching a rewarded advertisement to completion grants a temporary, single-use right to perform one premium operation. A rewarded unlock is a promotional convenience, not a purchase. It has no monetary value, cannot be bought, sold, exchanged, transferred or refunded, expires after a limited period, and may be modified, limited or withdrawn at any time. The Developer may withhold or revoke a reward obtained through fraud, emulation, automation or any manipulation of the ad or reward system.

9. License grant

Subject to your compliance with these Terms, the Developer grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to download, install and use the App, in executable object-code form only, on Android devices that you own or control, solely for your own personal or internal business file-management purposes.

10. License restrictions

Except as expressly permitted by these Terms, by applicable law notwithstanding this restriction, or by Section 26 for the open-source components identified there, you agree not to:

  • copy, modify, adapt, translate, or create derivative works of the App;
  • reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or otherwise attempt to derive the source code of the App's proprietary (non-open-source) components;
  • rent, lease, lend, sell, sublicense, redistribute, or otherwise transfer the App or your license to it to any third party;
  • remove, obscure, or alter any proprietary notices (including copyright and trademark notices) on or within the App;
  • use the App to develop a competing product or service;
  • circumvent, disable, or interfere with any security-related or access-control feature of the App; or
  • circumvent, tamper with, or falsify the App's licensing, entitlement, billing or rewarded-unlock mechanisms, including by patching the App, spoofing a purchase, or using a modified build, in order to obtain Premium features without paying for them.

11. Your files remain yours

The App is a tool that acts on files that are already yours, stored on storage media you own or control, or on a cloud account or network location you hold with a third party. The Developer claims no ownership interest in, and — consistent with the Privacy Policy — no access to the contents of, any file you view, create, copy, move, rename, delete or otherwise manage using the App. You remain solely responsible for the legality of the files you store, transfer and manage, and for maintaining any backups you need.

12. Your responsibility for your data

You are solely responsible for:

  • maintaining independent backups of anything important before performing any operation, especially a destructive one (Section 13);
  • not physically disconnecting a USB (OTG) drive, force-closing the App, or powering off your device while a transfer, compression or format operation is in progress;
  • understanding that Trash applies to internal storage only, that its retention period is one you choose (7 to 90 days, defaulting to 30), and that deletions on a USB (OTG) drive, a network location or a cloud account are immediate and permanent, consistent with how most desktop operating systems treat removable and remote volumes;
  • understanding that Safe Folder is not encryption — it hides a folder behind your device credential, and the files inside it remain readable by anything with direct access to the storage;
  • granting the App only the permissions you are comfortable with, understanding that declining a permission disables the feature that depends on it (Section 14);
  • keeping secure the credentials of any cloud account or network location you connect, and the access PIN of any server you start; and
  • complying with the terms of any third-party service you reach through the App.

13. Destructive operations and assumption of risk

Read this section carefully. The App can perform irreversible, destructive operations on your behalf when you explicitly request them — including permanently deleting files, emptying Trash, and completely erasing a USB drive's existing contents and filesystem when you use the Format Drive feature. These actions occur only because you directly and knowingly initiated them, and once performed, the affected data is not recoverable through the App.

By using the Format Drive feature, deleting files (particularly on a USB/OTG drive, a network location or a cloud account, where deletion bypasses Trash entirely), emptying Trash, or otherwise initiating an irreversible operation, you expressly acknowledge and assume all risk of data loss, drive corruption or device malfunction that may result — including from an operation interrupted by a disconnected drive, insufficient battery, loss of network, or an operating-system termination of the App. You accept that the Developer has no ability to recover data lost through such an operation, and that responsibility for confirming you intend the operation, and for having a backup, rests with you alone. Nothing in this Section excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded — see Section 24.

14. Permissions required to operate

The App's features depend on the Android permissions described in Section 4 of the Privacy Policy. If you decline or later revoke a permission, the specific feature that depends on it will not function until the permission is granted — for example, browsing files without storage access, scanning a document without camera access, or viewing installed apps without the packages-query permission. This does not otherwise affect these Terms and is not a ground for a refund of a subscription that continues to provide its other features.

15. Cloud storage accounts you connect

The App's optional Cloud feature lets you connect your own Dropbox or Microsoft OneDrive account, as described in Section 7 of the Privacy Policy. Connecting and using a cloud account is subject to that provider's own terms of service in addition to these Terms, and you are responsible for reading and complying with them. Google Drive is not offered in this version.

The Developer is not a party to your relationship with any cloud provider, does not operate, control or guarantee the availability of any such provider, and is not responsible for that provider's uptime, storage limits, pricing or policy changes; for any loss, corruption or unauthorized access to a file once it leaves your device for that provider or before it arrives back from it; or for the provider's own handling of your account, credentials or content. You are solely responsible for having the necessary rights to store and transfer any content you send to a connected account, and for complying with that provider's acceptable-use policies.

The App stores only an encrypted sign-in token for each connected account, never your cloud password. You can disconnect an account at any time; doing so removes the App's locally stored token and, where the provider supports revocation, attempts to revoke it, but does not by itself delete anything already stored with that provider. See Section 7 of the Privacy Policy for how to review or revoke access directly with the provider.

16. Network locations you connect

The App's optional Network feature lets you connect to SMB, SFTP, FTP, FTPS and WebDAV servers. You are responsible for ensuring you are authorized to access any server you connect to, and for complying with the policies of whoever operates it — connecting to a server you do not have permission to access may be unlawful and is prohibited under Section 20.

The Developer does not operate, control, inspect or guarantee any server you connect to, and is not responsible for its availability, integrity, content, or for data lost or corrupted in transit to or from it. Plain FTP and WebDAV over HTTP transmit credentials and file contents unencrypted, and SMB's protection depends on what your server negotiates; where you choose an unencrypted protocol, you accept the resulting exposure on the network you are using.

17. Sharing from your device: you are the operator

When you start a built-in server, you are operating a server. The App's Web, WebDAV and FTP server modes publish a storage area you select to your local network, reachable by anything that can reach your device's IP address and supply the access PIN. The Developer provides the software; you decide what to share, with whom, and on what network — and you alone are responsible for that decision and its consequences.

You agree that you will: start a server only on a network you trust; choose a storage area you are willing to expose; set and keep confidential a non-obvious access PIN; and stop the server when you are done. You accept that the browser and FTP modes transmit data unencrypted on the local network, that the access PIN is a short credential whose protection is proportionate to a trusted home network and not to a hostile one, and that anyone you give the address and PIN to can read, write and delete within the shared area.

You are responsible for all activity conducted through a server you start, including anyone you allow to connect, and for ensuring you have the right to make available any file you share. The Developer is not responsible for unauthorized access to, disclosure of, alteration of or deletion of your files by anyone who reaches a server you chose to run, or for any consequence of running one on an untrusted network.

18. Online media features and third-party content

The App includes optional features that browse and play media from public third-party services — stock video, internet radio directories, decentralised music networks, public-domain audio archives, and a community-maintained index of free-to-air live TV channels. Section 10 of the Privacy Policy lists them.

The Developer does not host, provide, control, select, moderate, verify or endorse any of this content. The App is an index and a player. It retrieves publicly available catalogues published by third parties and, when you choose to play something, connects your device directly to a stream operated by someone with whom the Developer has no relationship. The Developer does not upload, store, cache on any server, transcode, re-transmit or monetise any third-party stream, and receives no data about what you watch or listen to.

Accordingly, and to the maximum extent permitted by law:

  • the availability, quality, accuracy, legality, licensing status and geographic entitlement of any third-party stream is determined by whoever operates it, not by the Developer, and may change or disappear without notice;
  • the Developer makes no representation that any particular stream is licensed for reception in your country, and you are responsible for ensuring that your reception and use of any content complies with the law where you are and with any applicable rights-holder's terms;
  • a channel, station or track appearing in a catalogue is not an assertion by the Developer that it is lawful, licensed or suitable, and content may be inaccurate, offensive or unsuitable for minors; and
  • the Developer is not liable for any third-party content you access through these features, and does not act as a broadcaster, publisher or content provider in respect of it.

The Developer may remove, disable or discontinue any online media feature, or any source within it, at any time and without notice — including in response to a takedown request under Section 19. These features are provided in the free tier as a convenience and their continued availability is not part of what a Premium subscription buys.

19. Copyright complaints and takedown requests

The Developer respects intellectual property rights and expects users of the App to do the same.

The Developer does not host user content and does not host, store or transmit any third-party media stream. If you are a rights holder, or authorized to act on one's behalf, and you believe that a catalogue entry surfaced by the App directs users to material that infringes your copyright, send a notice to the Developer's contact email address published on the App's Google Play listing, with the subject line "Copyright notice", including: (a) your contact details; (b) identification of the copyrighted work concerned; (c) identification of the specific entry, channel, station or URL complained of, with enough detail to locate it; (d) a statement that you have a good-faith belief the use is not authorized by the rights holder, its agent or the law; (e) a statement that the information in your notice is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that you are the rights holder or authorized to act for them; and (f) your physical or electronic signature.

On receiving a complete and good-faith notice, the Developer will act expeditiously to remove or disable the entry complained of from the App's catalogues where it is within the Developer's control to do so, and will tell you what it has done. Where the material is published by an upstream third-party catalogue or stream operator, the Developer will also direct you to that operator, who is the party able to remove the material at source. Notices that are incomplete, that concern content the Developer neither hosts nor indexes, or that are submitted in bad faith may be declined. Knowingly making a material misrepresentation in a takedown notice may expose you to liability.

Counter-notices may be sent to the same address and will be handled in the same spirit.

20. Prohibited uses

You agree to use the App only for lawful purposes and agree not to:

  • access, format, modify or delete data on any storage device, network server or cloud account you do not own or do not have clear authorization to access;
  • use the App to store, transfer, share or manage content that is illegal in your jurisdiction, infringes any third party's intellectual property or privacy rights, or that you do not have the right to possess or handle;
  • use the App's server features to distribute infringing, unlawful or non-consensual material, or to make files available to anyone you are not entitled to make them available to;
  • use the App to circumvent digital rights management ("DRM"), copy protection, geographic restrictions or other technical measures protecting content you do not own;
  • use the App in any manner that could damage, disable, overburden or impair its operation, or that of any third-party service it connects to, including by making automated or excessive requests to a media service listed in Section 18;
  • tamper with the App's billing, entitlement or rewarded-unlock mechanisms, or use a modified or repackaged build of the App to obtain paid features without paying;
  • use automated means (scripts, bots, emulators or similar) to interact with the App or with advertising displayed in it, outside of normal direct end-user use; or
  • use the App in violation of any applicable export-control or economic-sanctions law.

21. Feedback

If you submit bug reports, feature requests or other feedback about the App — for example via GitHub Issues — you grant the Developer a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free license to use, modify and incorporate that feedback into the App or any other product or service, without any obligation, attribution or compensation to you. Do not send confidential information as feedback.

22. Intellectual property

Except for the open-source components identified in Section 26 and your own files, the App — including its source code, design, user interface, icons, and the "NTFS File Manager" name and branding — is the property of the Developer and is protected by applicable copyright, trademark and other intellectual property laws. These Terms grant you no right to use the Developer's trademarks, logos or branding except as necessary to accurately refer to the App, for example in a review or bug report. Third-party names referred to in the App or in these Terms are the trademarks of their respective owners, and their use does not imply any affiliation with or endorsement by them.

23. Disclaimer of warranties

THE APP IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. THE DEVELOPER DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE APP WILL BE ERROR-FREE, UNINTERRUPTED OR SECURE, THAT ANY DEFECT WILL BE CORRECTED, THAT IT WILL SUCCESSFULLY READ, WRITE, FORMAT OR RECOVER DATA FROM EVERY NTFS, EXFAT OR FAT DRIVE, DEVICE OR CONDITION, OR THAT ANY THIRD-PARTY SERVICE, SERVER OR MEDIA SOURCE REACHED THROUGH THE APP WILL BE AVAILABLE, ACCURATE OR LAWFUL IN YOUR JURISDICTION. NO ADVICE OR INFORMATION OBTAINED FROM THE DEVELOPER OR THROUGH THE APP CREATES ANY WARRANTY NOT EXPRESSLY STATED HERE.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain implied warranties, and consumers in the EU, EEA and UK have statutory rights to digital content that conforms to the contract and to remedies where it does not. Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits those rights, and where such a right applies, the above exclusions apply only to the extent permitted by that law.

24. Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW:

(A) IN NO EVENT WILL THE DEVELOPER BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING LOSS OF DATA, LOSS OF PROFITS, DEVICE DAMAGE OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO YOUR USE OF, OR INABILITY TO USE, THE APP, EVEN IF THE DEVELOPER HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES; AND

(B) THE DEVELOPER'S TOTAL CUMULATIVE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR THE APP WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (I) THE TOTAL AMOUNT YOU PAID TO THE DEVELOPER FOR THE APP, THROUGH GOOGLE PLAY, IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM, OR (II) TWENTY-FIVE UNITED STATES DOLLARS (USD $25).

This limitation applies regardless of the legal theory on which a claim is based and even if a limited remedy fails of its essential purpose.

What is never excluded. Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits the Developer's liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, for gross negligence or wilful misconduct, or for any other liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited. If you are a consumer, your mandatory statutory rights and remedies — including under EU, EEA or UK consumer law — apply in full, and the caps above apply only to the extent that law permits.

25. Indemnification

To the extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Developer from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or connected with: (a) your use or misuse of the App; (b) your violation of these Terms; (c) your violation of any applicable law or the rights of any third party; (d) content or data you manage, store, transfer or make available using the App, including through a server you start under Section 17; or (e) your access to any third-party server, cloud account or media stream through the App. This Section does not apply to a consumer to the extent that applicable consumer-protection law prohibits it.

26. Open-source and third-party software

The App's NTFS and exFAT filesystem support is built on libntfs-3g and ntfsprogs, open-source software licensed under the GNU General Public License version 2 ("GPLv2") and the GNU Lesser General Public License ("LGPL").

The App additionally includes other open-source and third-party components, each governed by its own license as published by its authors. These include, without limitation: the Kotlin standard library and coroutines, AndroidX and Jetpack Compose, Material Components, AndroidX Media3, CameraX, AndroidX Security (Jetpack Security Crypto), OkHttp, SMBJ, Apache Commons Net, the Microsoft Authentication Library (MSAL), the Dropbox API client, Google Play Billing Library, Google Play Core and Play Services libraries, Google Mobile Ads SDK, and Google ML Kit — principally under the Apache License 2.0, with others under the MIT or BSD licenses. A complete, version-accurate list of components, versions and full license texts for any released build is available free of charge on request from the contact address in Section 32, and is published in the App where an open-source licenses screen is provided.

Written offer for GPL/LGPL-licensed components

In accordance with GPLv2 Section 3(b), the Developer offers, valid for at least three (3) years from the date you received the App, to provide any third party a complete machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code for the GPLv2/LGPL-licensed components used in the App (as used, including any Developer modifications), on a physical medium customarily used for software interchange, for a charge no greater than the cost of physically performing the distribution. To request it, contact the Developer using Section 32 and specify the App version and component. This offer does not extend to the App's own proprietary code, which remains licensed to you solely under Section 9.

Nothing in these Terms is intended to restrict any right granted to you under the GPLv2, LGPL or any other open-source license governing a specific component; where these Terms and such a license conflict as to a specific component, that component's own license governs with respect to that component.

27. Termination

These Terms remain in effect until terminated. You may terminate them at any time by uninstalling the App — remembering that uninstalling does not cancel a subscription, which must be cancelled through Google Play (Section 5).

The Developer may suspend, limit or discontinue the App, or any feature of it, at any time, and may terminate your license if you materially breach these Terms. Where the Developer terminates your license for breach while you hold a paid subscription, it will — except in cases of fraud, billing manipulation or unlawful use — either allow the paid period to run out or support a pro-rata refund request with Google for the unused portion. Termination does not delete or affect any file on your own storage. Sections 10 through 13 and 17 through 32 survive termination to the extent necessary to give effect to their intent.

28. Google Play additional terms

If you obtained the App from Google Play, your download, use and any purchase are also subject to the Google Play Terms of Service between you and Google, and purchases are additionally subject to Google Payments terms. These Terms govern the relationship between you and the Developer; the Google Play terms separately govern the relationship between you and Google as the distribution platform and merchant of record. In the event of a direct conflict between these Terms and a mandatory term of the Google Play Terms of Service governing platform distribution or billing, the Google Play terms govern solely as to that conflict. Google is not responsible for the App and is not a party to these Terms.

29. Governing law and dispute resolution

These Terms are governed by the laws of the country in which the Developer is established, as identified on the App's Google Play listing, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles, and the courts of that country will have non-exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the App.

If you are a consumer, nothing in this Section deprives you of the protection of the mandatory consumer-protection laws of the country in which you are habitually resident, or of your right to bring proceedings in the courts of that country where the law gives you that right. This choice of law and forum applies only to the extent permitted by the law that applies to you.

Informal resolution first. Before filing any formal claim, you agree to contact the Developer using Section 32 and to attempt in good faith to resolve the dispute informally for at least 30 days. Most concerns are resolved this way. The Developer will do the same before bringing a claim against you.

30. General provisions

Severability. If any provision of these Terms is held unenforceable, that provision will be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect.

No waiver. The Developer's failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of that or any other provision.

Assignment. The Developer may assign or transfer these Terms, in whole or in part, in connection with a merger, acquisition or sale of assets, or otherwise, provided that your rights under these Terms are not diminished. You may not assign or transfer these Terms, or your license under them, without the Developer's prior written consent.

Force majeure. The Developer is not liable for any failure or delay in the App's availability resulting from causes beyond its reasonable control, including outages of Google Play's or a third-party service's infrastructure.

Language. These Terms are drafted in English. Any translation is provided for convenience; in the event of a conflict, the English version governs, except where the law applicable to you as a consumer requires otherwise.

Entire agreement. These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and the Developer regarding the App and supersede any prior agreements on its subject matter.

31. Changes to these terms

These Terms may be updated from time to time. If changes are made, the updated version will be posted at this URL with a revised effective date. For changes that materially affect your rights or obligations — and always for a change affecting subscription price or billing — the Developer will give reasonable advance notice through the App or through Google Play before the change takes effect. Continued use of the App after a change takes effect constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms. If you do not agree to a revision, your remedy is to stop using the App, cancel any subscription through Google Play, and uninstall.

What changed on September 14, 2026. Cloud connections currently offered are Dropbox and Microsoft OneDrive. Google Drive is not offered in this version.

What changed on September 11, 2026. These Terms were substantially revised because the App changed. The previous version described the App as provided free of charge and operating entirely locally, and capped the Developer's liability at "zero, as the App is provided free of charge." That is no longer accurate. Newly added or corrected: the Premium subscription, auto-renewal, cancellation, price-change, withdrawal and refund terms (Sections 4 to 7); advertising and rewarded unlocks (Section 8); network file-share connections (Section 16); the built-in servers and your responsibility as their operator (Section 17); online media features and third-party content, including live TV streams (Section 18); a copyright notice-and-takedown procedure (Section 19); a revised liability cap that is meaningful for paying subscribers and that expressly preserves non-excludable consumer rights (Section 24); a named governing jurisdiction with a consumer-law carve-out (Section 29); and a corrected list of supported cloud providers — Google Drive, Dropbox and OneDrive — replacing an earlier list that incorrectly included Box and pCloud.
