Terms of Use — Tryks
Last updated: September 2, 2026
In short: Tryks organises links to videos on third-party platforms
(Instagram, YouTube and TikTok). We do not host videos, we are not affiliated with those
platforms and we depend on them for the content to remain accessible. The app has a free
version and a paid version by subscription (Tryks Pro), which renews
automatically until you cancel. By using the app you agree to these Terms.
1. Acceptance
By installing and using the Tryks application ("application", "app",
"service"), you declare that you have read, understood and fully accepted these Terms of Use
and the Privacy Policy. If you disagree with any point, do not use
the app.
2. Who we are
Tryks is developed by Daniel Cavalcante (independent developer, a natural
person). Contact:
info@tryks.app.
3. What the app does (and what it does NOT do)
- Tryks stores links and metadata (title, description, thumbnail, author) of
public videos from Instagram (reels, posts), YouTube (regular videos, Shorts) and TikTok.
- Videos are played by those platforms' official players (public embed),
inside the app itself. Tryks does not download, does not store and does not
redistribute videos.
- Tryks is not affiliated with, sponsored by, endorsed by or connected to
Instagram (Meta Platforms, Inc.), YouTube (Google LLC) or TikTok (ByteDance Ltd.). Those
platforms' names and trade marks belong to their owners and appear here only to identify
where the content comes from.
- Access to the content depends entirely on those platforms' policies, availability and
restrictions. If a video is removed, made private, has copyright-restricted audio or blocks
embedded playback, it may stop working in Tryks without notice.
4. Licence of use
We grant you a personal, non-transferable, non-exclusive and revocable licence to use Tryks, in
accordance with these Terms.
On Apple devices: the licence to use the application itself follows Apple's
standard end-user licence agreement, accepted when you download the app from the App Store.
These Terms supplement that agreement and deal with the service, the
subscription and privacy; as regards specifically the licence of the application on Apple
devices, Apple's agreement prevails. Support is ours, not Apple's — contact us
at the address in section 12.
You agree not to:
- use the app for unlawful purposes or purposes that infringe third-party rights;
- copy, modify, decompile, reverse engineer or redistribute the application;
- use the application to circumvent restrictions, protection systems or the terms of
third-party platforms (Instagram, YouTube, TikTok);
- use the application to download, redistribute, publicly display or commercialise
third-party videos — the app only makes it easier to consume public content personally.
5. Free plan, taster days and Tryks Pro (subscription)
5.1 Free plan
Tryks can be used free of charge and with no time limit. We run no advertising
of our own on any plan — but note: videos play through the source platforms' players, and
YouTube may show ads before or during a video, on the free plan as well as on
Pro. Those ads belong to the platform, not to us; we cannot remove them and we are not paid for
them. Subscribing to Tryks Pro does not get rid of YouTube's ads — Pro unlocks
features of the app, it does not change the video platform. And
subscribing to YouTube Premium may not get rid of them here either: Tryks
opens the video through the public player, without signing in to your account
on YouTube (the app asks for no platform login at all), and Premium benefits depend on your
being identified. The free plan has two limits, as of today: up to
2 activities and up to 50 videos stored in total (the same
video saved in two activities counts twice). The counter inside the app shows how much you have
used. These numbers may be adjusted in future versions; if they go down, the content you have
already stored is not deleted.
Adding videos, watching, organising, searching, filtering, taking notes, tracking progress and
exporting and importing backups are free, with no usage limit.
5.2 Daily taster of the advanced controls — this is not a subscription
The app offers a limited number of taster days for the advanced video controls
(slow motion, frame by frame, markers and A→B segments). You choose when to
activate each day; the activation lasts until midnight by your device's clock and uses up one
of the taster days available.
The taster is not a free subscription trial. It
creates no subscription, triggers no charge, converts into no paid plan and
requires no cancellation. During the taster you remain on the free plan, with
the same activity and video limits described in 5.1 — what changes is only temporary access to
the advanced video controls. Once it ends, the app returns to its free behaviour, with no
charge whatsoever.
5.3 Tryks Pro (subscription)
Tryks Pro is an auto-renewing subscription, offered in
12-month and 6-month plans, taken out through the official
stores (Google Play and the App Store), at the prices they state for your country.
- What Pro unlocks: unlimited activities and videos; creating and editing
markers; creating, editing and looping A→B segments; slow motion and frame
by frame. Using markers that already exist — including those that came in an
imported file — remains free.
- Automatic renewal: the subscription renews by itself at
the end of each period, and the store charges the current price
automatically unless you cancel. The charge is made by the store, to the account you
used to subscribe.
- Cancellation: you can cancel at any time, in your store account (Google
Play or the App Store) — there is no way to cancel inside Tryks, because we are not the ones
processing the charge. To avoid being charged for the following period, cancel
before the end of the current one (the stores currently require at least
24 hours' notice). When you cancel, you keep Pro until the end of the period already
paid for.
- When the subscription ends — through cancellation, payment failure or a
refund — you return to the free plan's limits, and
your data is not deleted: videos, tags, notes, markers, segments and
progress stay on the device. What becomes unavailable is creating and editing Pro features
and storing beyond the free limits.
- The store, not Tryks, charges and refunds. Depending on your country and
the store, it may act as our agent or as the seller itself — in the European Economic Area
and the United Kingdom, for example, Google Play appears as the seller. In any case, payment,
receipts, refunds and cancellation are handled by the store, on the account
you used to subscribe, and the store's rules apply along with the rights your country's law
grants you — including, where applicable, the right of withdrawal and the
cooling-off period for distance purchases. We have no way of granting or refusing a refund on
your behalf.
- The charge is validated by our partner RevenueCat, which tells us only
whether the subscription is active (see the Privacy Policy,
section 5).
- You can restore the subscription at any time on the same store account you
subscribed with. As Tryks has no login of its own, the subscription
does NOT move between different platforms (a Google Play subscription is not
valid on the App Store, and vice versa).
- Refunds: refund policies are set by the store where the subscription was
taken out. Request the refund directly from the store.
- Changes to price or features: we may change prices and the set of Pro
features. Price changes only apply to future periods and are communicated by the store, which
will ask for your consent where the law or its own rules so require; you may cancel before
renewal if you disagree.
6. Privacy
Data processing is described in the Privacy Policy. In short: the app
is local-first and collects no usage data. The exceptions are the data strictly
necessary to process the Pro subscription (see Policy, section 5) and the
reading of the device clipboard, done only to recognise a video link you may
have copied and offer to add it (see Policy, section 4) — what is read is sent nowhere and can
be turned off in the app's settings. Any new collection of data in future versions will be
announced and will require your explicit opt-in.
7. No warranties
To the extent permitted by applicable law, Tryks is provided "as is", without warranties of any
kind, express or implied — including, without limitation, warranties of fitness for a
particular purpose or of uninterrupted operation.
Specifically: we do not warrant that third-party videos will always be available, that the
external platforms (Instagram, YouTube, TikTok) will keep their APIs, their embed formats or
their usage rules stable, nor that automatic routines (fetching thumbnails, titles, captions)
will work for all content.
This matters and is not hypothetical: Tryks features that depend on those
platforms may stop working at any moment, temporarily or permanently, by their
decision and without notice to us — for example, if a platform changes the way a video is shown
outside its own app, restricts embedded playback or discontinues that feature. This may affect
an entire platform, not just one video. As we have no control over those decisions,
they do not constitute a defect of the application; we will do what we can to
adapt the app when they happen. What remains yours, in any scenario, is what is on your device:
your links, titles, notes, tags, markers, segments and progress, which you can export at any
time.
8. Limitation of liability
To the extent permitted by applicable law, the developer is not liable for: loss of data
resulting from device malfunction, accidental deletion or absence of a backup; unavailability of
third-party content; or any indirect losses arising from the use of, or the inability to use,
the application.
Take a regular backup of your library (Settings → Backup → Export) — it is your
main protection against data loss.
Consumer rights: nothing in these Terms limits consumer rights provided for by
applicable law (in Brazil, in particular the Consumer Protection Code).
9. Termination
You may stop using the application at any time by uninstalling it. Uninstalling
does not cancel the subscription: cancellation is done in your store account
(see section 5.3). Before uninstalling, export your backup — the data is only on the device and
goes with it.
We may discontinue the application or specific features at any time, with reasonable prior
notice where possible. If Tryks Pro is discontinued, no new charge will be made and access
remains until the end of the period already paid for.
10. Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms. The most recent version is always on this page, with the update date
at the top. Material changes — such as a change to the billing model, to the
free plan's limits or to your rights — will be announced inside the app or in the new version's
description in the store at least 30 days in advance, and apply only
going forward. If you disagree with a change, you may cancel the subscription
before it takes effect and carry on using the free plan, or stop using the app — in both cases
your data stays on the device and can be exported.
11. Governing law, jurisdiction and language
These Terms are governed by the laws of the Federative Republic of Brazil,
where the developer resides and from where the application is published.
If you live outside Brazil, this does not reduce your rights. The choice of
Brazilian law does not deprive you of the mandatory protections granted to you
by the consumer protection law of the country where you habitually reside. Where that law so
determines, it prevails over this clause, and no provision of these Terms is to
be read as a waiver of a right that your local law makes non-waivable. This applies
whatever the language in which you read these Terms and
whatever the store through which you installed the app or subscribed to Tryks
Pro.
Jurisdiction: the courts of the consumer's domicile are chosen.
You may bring proceedings before the courts of the place where you live — nothing in these Terms
obliges you to litigate in Brazil.
Language: these Terms are published in several languages so that you can read
them in your own. The Portuguese version is the original, and the others are
translations of the same content — none of them grants less than another. If a translation gives
rise to a doubt of interpretation, the reading more favourable to you prevails;
and where your country's law determines that the local-language version prevails, that is the
one that prevails.
