Terms

Effective 18 October 2026 · Last updated 31 October 2026

These terms cover the Yaptoon app, the Yaptoon web app and the website yaptoon.com, including the waitlist and the pages that play shared cartoons. By using Yaptoon you agree to them.

1. Who we are

Yaptoon is run by:

FOVOXO OÜ
Registry code 16112801, VAT EE102337396
Sepapaja tn 6, 15551 Tallinn, Estonia
Contact: hello@yaptoon.com

"We" and "us" in these terms mean FOVOXO OÜ. "You" means you, the person using Yaptoon.

2. The service

Yaptoon turns what people say into short cartoons. You record a conversation, upload a recording, or paste text such as a chat or a story. We write a script from it, voice the lines and put them on cartoon characters.
The script and the voices are made with AI services. The Privacy Policy names them. AI can get things wrong, so watch your cartoon before you share it.
Your phone usually draws the video. We may also draw it on our servers.
Scripts are checked automatically. Some may not be voiced, and some may stay private and never go to the feed.
Where it is available, a public feed lets people watch, like and comment on cartoons that others chose to post. Some posts come from Yaptoon Studio, our own account.
We keep improving Yaptoon, so features, characters and styles can change or be removed.

How we handle your recordings, transcripts and other data is explained in our Privacy Policy.

3. Accounts

You can start without signing in. The app then keeps your episodes under an anonymous account tied to your phone.
After a few episodes, the app asks you to sign in to make more. You can sign in with your email (we send you a one-time code) or, on iPhone, with Apple. Your episodes and your plan move to your account.
If you sign in on another phone with the same account, its episodes join your account too.
If you sign out, your account keeps everything, and signing in again brings it back. If you delete the app before you sign in, the episodes of that anonymous account can't be moved to an account.
Keep access to your email and your Apple ID safe. You are responsible for what is done in your account.

4. Eligibility and the age check

The feed is only for people old enough where they live. That covers watching the feed, posting, commenting, liking and following.
The minimum age depends on your country. It is 13 in most countries, and higher in some (for example 15 in France and 16 in Australia).
To check, we use the age range Apple or Google tells us, or we ask you. We keep an age range, never your date of birth. Until we know your age, the feed stays closed.
If you are under the minimum, you can still make cartoons for yourself, but you can't use the feed.
If you are under 13, use Yaptoon only with a parent's or guardian's permission.
A cartoon someone shares as a link plays on yaptoon.com for anyone who has the link.

5. Your content and the licence you give us

"Your content" means your recordings, the text you paste, the transcripts and scripts, your episodes and their posters, and what you post or comment.

You keep what is yours. We don't claim ownership of your content.
Your cartoon. The cartoon we make for you — the video and its poster — is yours to use and share. The characters, styles, scenes and voices inside it remain ours and are licensed to you as part of that cartoon.
The licence for making your cartoon. You let us store, process, transcribe, edit and voice your content, and turn it into video, only to run Yaptoon for you. This includes sending it to the AI services named in the Privacy Policy.
The licence for what you post. When you post a cartoon to the feed, you let us show it, its poster, title and caption to other people in the app and on yaptoon.com, recommend it in the feed, and play it on the page its share link opens. This licence is free of charge and worldwide. It ends when you take the post down or delete it, apart from copies already shared or cached for a short time.
Private by default. An episode stays yours alone until you post it or share it.
Your responsibility. You confirm you have the right to use what you record, upload or paste, and that it doesn't break the law or these terms.
Saving and sharing. You can save your finished cartoon to your phone's gallery and share it.

How long we keep each part of your content is explained in the Privacy Policy.

7. Acceptable use, moderation, reports and blocks

Please don't use Yaptoon to post, comment or share anything that:

is spam;
harasses or bullies anyone;
is hateful;
is sexual;
shows or promotes violence;
encourages anyone to hurt themselves;
is illegal;
pretends to be someone else.

Also, please don't:

use bots or automated scripts, or scrape the app or the site;
submit other people's email addresses, or otherwise abuse our forms;
try to get around our limits, checks or age gate.

How we keep the feed safe:

Titles, captions, comments and display names are checked against word lists. Text that fails the check can't be posted.
Reports. You can report a post, a comment or a profile from the app, and a shared cartoon from its page on yaptoon.com. We aim to review reports within 24 hours.
What we may do. We may hide or delete posts and comments, and ban accounts. A banned account can only browse, and its posts and comments are hidden from everyone. A deleted post can't be posted again.
If we remove your content or restrict your account and you think we got it wrong, email hello@yaptoon.com and we'll look again.
Blocks. You can block another account. You then no longer see each other's posts, comments or profiles, and any follows between you end. You can unblock at any time.
Your own posts. You can take a post down and delete your own comments at any time.
There are limits on how often you can post, comment, like or report, to stop abuse.

8. Plans, limits and purchases

Yaptoon has a free plan and paid plans. Each plan has its own limits, such as how many episodes and minutes of recording you get a month and how long one recording can be, and its own features. The app shows your plan and its current limits.
Your monthly limits start again each month: on a paid plan on the day of the month your subscription started, on the free plan on the 1st (UTC). Episodes you delete still count for that month.
If you reach a limit, you can't start new episodes until your limits start again, until you change your plan, or, where the app offers them, until you buy a pack. Episodes you already made keep working.
On the free plan, videos carry a Yaptoon watermark and an end card. Paid plans remove the watermark, and some also remove the end card. The app shows what each plan includes.
We may change plans, their limits and features. The app always shows what applies to you now.
In-app purchases. Subscriptions in the app are bought through the App Store or Google Play. Apple or Google takes the payment, renews the subscription and handles refunds under their own rules, including any right to cancel a purchase. To cancel, use your App Store or Google Play subscription settings.
Packs. The app may also sell one-off packs, such as extra cartoons, or a single cartoon without the watermark. A pack is bought through the App Store or Google Play and is used only after your plan's monthly allowance. What it adds doesn't expire and stays when you change or cancel your plan. A cartoon made without the watermark stays without it. Refunds for packs follow the store's rules, as for subscriptions.
The iOS app. For the Yaptoon app on iPhone, Apple's Licensed Application End User License Agreement also applies.
Purchases on yaptoon.com. When buying on the web opens, those orders are processed by our online reseller Paddle.com, which is the Merchant of Record for them: Paddle takes the payment, sends the receipt and handles refunds under its buyer terms. Our Refund Policy covers refunds for app and web purchases.
Deleting the app or your Yaptoon account doesn't cancel a subscription. Cancel it in the store.
If you have two subscriptions for the same plan, the app tells you. We don't cancel or refund either of them ourselves: you choose which to cancel in the store.
Your consumer rights under the law where you live are not affected.

9. Ending your use and deleting your account

You can stop using Yaptoon at any time. To delete your account, go to Settings → Delete account. It erases your account, your episodes, your posts and comments, and the files we stored for them, right away.
Before you delete, you can export your data from the app. We prepare a download link, which works for 24 hours.
You can delete a single episode at any time. It disappears from the app at once, and we erase it completely about 30 days later.
If you break these terms, we may remove your content and ban or close your account.

10. Our intellectual property

The Yaptoon name and logo, our characters, styles and scenes, the app, the website and their text, images and video belong to FOVOXO OÜ.
You may use them inside the cartoons Yaptoon makes for you, and share those cartoons. Using Yaptoon doesn't give you any other right to them.
Your words and your recording stay yours (see section 5). The characters and styles in your cartoon stay ours.

11. Disclaimers and liability

We work to keep Yaptoon running and safe, but we can't promise it will always be available, free of errors, or that AI will get your script right. Yaptoon is provided "as is".
To the extent the law allows, FOVOXO OÜ is not liable for indirect loss, or for loss caused by content other people post.
Nothing in these terms limits liability that can't be limited by law, for example for harm we cause on purpose or through gross negligence.
If you are a consumer, you keep all the rights the law gives you. These terms don't take any of them away.

12. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of Estonia, and disputes go to the Estonian courts. If you are a consumer, you keep the mandatory protections of the country where you live, and you can also bring a claim there.

13. Changes to these terms

If we change these terms we'll update the "Last updated" date above. If a change matters to how you use Yaptoon, we'll tell you in the app or by email before it applies.

14. Language

These terms are written in English, and the English version is the one that applies. If we ever offer a translation, it is for convenience only.
