Terms of Use
Last updated: 11 October 2026
These Terms of Use (the "Terms") are the agreement between you and us about Unreel: the iPhone app "Unreel: Reel Organizer" and the service behind it. They are also the licence agreement (EULA) for the app. Please read them before you start. You can save or print this page at any time.
1. Who we are
Unreel is provided by Manushkumar Vaghani, an individual, not a company. In these Terms, "we" and "us" mean Manushkumar Vaghani.

More about us is in the Impressum at unreel.buildeasy.eu/impressum. How we handle personal data is explained in the Privacy Policy at unreel.buildeasy.eu/privacy. These Terms are at unreel.buildeasy.eu/terms.
2. How this agreement works
- The agreement starts when you tap Agree and continue on the first screen of the app. We store which version of these Terms you accepted and when.
- There is nothing to type or fill in on that screen, so there are no input mistakes to correct. If you do not want to agree, close the app. Nothing is agreed until you tap the button.
- This is version 1 of the Terms. The language of the agreement is English. We have not signed up to any code of conduct.
- We keep every earlier version of these Terms. Ask us and we will send you the version you accepted.
- These Terms cover both your licence to use the app and the Unreel service: your account, your cards, Friends and Unreel Pro. Apple's standard licence agreement for apps does not apply to Unreel. Section 14 contains the points Apple requires in every app's licence agreement.
- You can end this agreement at any time by deleting your account in the app (You › Delete account), as section 11 explains.
3. Who can use Unreel
- Unreel is only for people aged 18 and over.
- Your account is linked to the app on your iPhone. There is no password and no email sign-in. Keep your phone secure: anyone who can use the app on your phone can use your account.
- If you lose access to the app on your phone, for example on a new phone without a backup, we cannot restore your library or your friends for you. Use Export your cards on the You screen to keep your own copy. Unreel Pro can be restored on a new install with Restore purchases.
4. What Unreel does
Unreel turns reels you share from Instagram, TikTok or YouTube into cards with the useful part, such as a recipe, a tool, a place or a workout. Your cards are kept in your library, where you can search them. With Friends, you can send cards to people you know.
- Unreel works only with links you share yourself, from the share sheet or by pasting a link. Links from other sites are refused.
- To make a card, our server fetches the public post and has it analysed by Google's Gemini AI. For Instagram and TikTok, the service ScrapeCreators fetches the post for us. For YouTube, Gemini reads the video from YouTube. The Privacy Policy (unreel.buildeasy.eu/privacy) names every service provider.
- We never store the video. We store the card and some details of the post, such as its creator and caption.
- Cards are written by AI. They can be incomplete or wrong. Check anything important at the source before you rely on it, for example the ingredients if you have an allergy, or the details of a place before you go.
- Unreel depends on Instagram, TikTok and YouTube and on our service providers. Some posts cannot be analysed, for example when a post is private or deleted, when its creator has asked us not to make cards of it, or when a platform blocks access. Such a post is saved with its link only.
- The app runs on iPhone and needs an internet connection. The App Store page shows which iOS versions it supports.
5. Use Unreel for your own saves
Unreel is made for organising reels you choose to save for yourself. You must not:
- collect posts in bulk, or share links with scripts, bots or other automated tools;
- use Unreel to build a collection or database of posts, creators or their content;
- use the Unreel server other than through the app, or try to get around its limits or its security;
- create extra accounts to get more free analyses, or to come back after a suspension;
- disrupt or overload Unreel, or attack it or other people's accounts;
- use cards to republish other people's content as your own;
- use Unreel to break the law or to infringe other people's rights.
When you use Instagram, TikTok or YouTube, their own terms apply to you there.
6. Creators and other people's content
- Reels belong to the people who made them. A card shows the creator's name or handle where we know it, and links back to the original post.
- A card can include short parts of the original post, such as a quote. These parts belong to the creator. Use your cards for personal purposes, such as keeping them for yourself or sharing them with friends.
- Unreel is an independent app. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by Instagram, TikTok or YouTube, or by the companies that own them. These names are trademarks of their owners. We use them only to say which links Unreel works with.
- If you made a reel and want a card about it removed, or you believe a card infringes your rights, email us at manushvaghani1999@gmail.com with a link to the post. We review every request and remove content that infringes rights. If we remove a card for this reason, or because its creator objected, we stop making cards of that post, every card of it sent between friends is deleted together with its note, and every user's save of the post becomes a card with its link only.
7. Friends: zero tolerance for abuse
With Friends you can add people by handle, invite link or QR code, and send them cards with a short note. There is no public feed: a card goes only to the people you send it to. Anyone who has your handle or your invite code can see your handle, your name and your avatar colour.
You choose who can send you cards in You › Privacy & sharing: Friends only, Anyone with your handle (cards from people who are not your friends wait in Requests first), or No one.
The rule
Unreel has zero tolerance for objectionable content and abusive users. This applies to everything you send or show in Unreel: notes, names, handles, Onii names (the name you give the app's helper) and the cards you share. Do not send or show anything that:
- harasses, bullies, threatens or intimidates anyone;
- attacks or discriminates against people because of their race, ethnicity, nationality, religion, gender, sexual orientation, disability, age or similar characteristics;
- is sexually explicit or sexualises anyone, and never anything that sexualises or endangers children;
- shows or glorifies violence, or encourages self-harm or suicide;
- is spam, a scam or a misleading link;
- pretends to be someone else;
- shares someone's private information without their permission;
- is illegal or infringes someone else's rights.
How we keep Friends safe
- Words filter. An automatic filter checks notes, names, handles and Onii names against a list of words we do not allow, and refuses text that contains one. The filter cannot catch everything. Content that passes it must still follow these rules.
- Report. You can report any card you received, any request and any person, also someone you are no longer connected with (You › Privacy & sharing › No longer connected). Choose a reason, and block the person at the same time if you want. A report sends us an email with the card or profile and the recent notes between the two of you, so that we can judge it. We do not tell the reported person who reported them.
- Block. You can block anyone at any time. You are then no longer friends, the cards between you disappear from both Friends tabs, and they can no longer send you requests or cards. Cards either of you kept in your library stay there. We do not tell the person that you blocked them. You can unblock them later.
- Limits. To stop spam, some actions can be done only a limited number of times a day: sending cards, sending friend requests, looking up handles or invite codes, making or accepting invites, reporting someone and changing your handle. Only a limited number of new profiles can be created per network and per day. There is also a limit on how many friends you can have and on how many people one card can go to at once. These limits are applied automatically. If you reach a daily limit, try again the next day.
- Action within 24 hours. A person (not an automated system) reviews every report. Notes and cards that abuse or harass someone are removed, and the account that sent them is suspended, within 24 hours of a report. If a report shows no breach of these rules, we close it. Every suspension is decided by a person.
What a suspension means
- The account can no longer send cards or notes, add people, accept requests, keep cards or change its profile. It can still see its Friends tab, and block, report or unfriend people.
- Every card and note it sent to others is deleted.
- Its handle can no longer be found, and its open friend requests are withdrawn.
- The person can still use their own library, export their data and delete their account.
- A suspension has no end date. It lasts until we accept a challenge of the decision (see below).
If content suggests a threat to someone's life or safety, we inform the police or other competent authorities, as the law requires.
If you disagree with a decision
If we suspend an account, the app tells the person the next time it is opened, in a statement of reasons: which rule of these Terms was broken, what we found, what the decision is about (a card the person sent, or their account), that a person made the decision after a report, that the cards and notes the account sent were removed, for illegal content the law it breaks, the report's reference, and how to challenge the decision by email. We never tell them who made the report.
If you think we got it wrong, write to us at manushvaghani1999@gmail.com, quote the reference and tell us why. A person looks at the decision again, together with what you told us, and we tell you the result and the reasons for it. If we accept your challenge, we lift the suspension. The deleted cards and notes cannot be brought back. You can also go to court.
Reporting illegal content without the app
Anyone, including people who do not use Unreel, can tell us about content in Unreel that they believe is illegal. Email us and include:
- what the content is and where it is, for example the handle that sent it;
- why you believe it is illegal;
- your name and email address (not needed if you are reporting the sexual abuse or sexual exploitation of a child);
- a statement that you believe your notice is accurate and complete.
We confirm that we received your notice, tell you what we decided, and tell you how you can challenge the decision (by writing to us again, or in court). The Privacy Policy (unreel.buildeasy.eu/privacy) explains how we handle the data in your notice.
8. Your content
- Your content is what you add to Unreel: the links you share, the titles you give your cards, your notes, and your name, handle and Onii name.
- You keep all your rights in your content. Only add content that you are allowed to share and that follows these Terms.
- So that we can run Unreel, you give us a free, non-exclusive, worldwide permission to store, copy, process and show your content. We use this permission only to provide Unreel to you and to the people you send cards to, and to keep Unreel safe. We do not sell your content or use it for advertising.
- The permission ends when you delete the content or your account. A card a friend chose to keep stays in their library. Some copies are kept for a limited time, for example to handle reports of abuse or to meet legal duties. The Privacy Policy (unreel.buildeasy.eu/privacy) explains what is kept and for how long.
- When you rate a card with a thumbs up or down, your rating is stored with your save and shown back to you on your card. We use ratings for nothing else.
- We use everything else we hold about you only to provide Unreel, to keep it safe and to meet our legal duties. We never use your data for advertising, to build a profile of you or to train AI.
9. Free plan and Unreel Pro
Free plan
You can use Unreel for free with a limited number of analyses. The current limits are shown in the app.
Unreel Pro
- Unreel Pro is a monthly subscription that renews automatically. Its price and what it includes, such as the number of analyses each month, are shown in the app and in the App Store before you buy. What the Pro page shows when you buy is part of our agreement.
- Your monthly Pro analyses start again on the first day of each calendar month, at midnight UTC.
- You buy Pro through Apple's App Store. Apple handles payment, billing, renewals, cancellation and refunds under Apple's Media Services Terms.
- Payment is charged to your Apple Account when you confirm the purchase. Pro then renews automatically every month unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the current month of your subscription ends. Apple charges the renewal within the 24 hours before that month ends.
- You can cancel at any time in Settings › Apple Account › Subscriptions, or with Manage subscription in the app. Pro stays on until the end of the month you have paid for.
- Cancellation, refunds and any right to withdraw from the purchase are Apple's, under Apple's Media Services Terms. You can ask Apple for a refund at reportaproblem.apple.com. Your legal rights are not affected.
- Deleting your Unreel account does not cancel Pro. Cancel it in Settings.
- Pro works on one app install at a time. On a new phone or after reinstalling the app, tap Restore purchases on the Pro page to use Pro again. Restore moves your membership to the install where you tap it, and the other install goes back to the free plan.
What uses an analysis
This applies to the free plan and to Unreel Pro.
- An analysis is used when our server starts the paid work on a reel you shared that has no card yet: the first request we pay a service provider for, such as fetching the post or sending it to Gemini.
- If something goes wrong before that point, no analysis is used: it is given back automatically.
- A reel that already has a card in Unreel, or is already being analysed, uses none.
- If the paid work has started but no card is made because of a problem on our side, including an error at one of our service providers such as Gemini, email us and we give the analysis back. If the post itself cannot be reached, for example because it is private, deleted or restricted by its creator, the analysis stays used.
- Trying again starts a new analysis and uses another one.
- If you have no analyses left, the reel is still saved in your library with its link, and you can have it analysed later.
10. Changes to Unreel
- We keep developing Unreel and may add, change or remove features.
- We make a change that makes Unreel worse for you only for a valid reason: a change in the law, a court decision or an order from an authority; a security problem; or a change at a service Unreel depends on, such as Google Gemini, the services we use to fetch posts, or Instagram, TikTok or YouTube (for example when one of them blocks or limits access). An example of such a change is ending support for a platform.
- Such a change costs you nothing extra. We tell you about it clearly in the app a reasonable time before it takes effect.
- If the change makes it more than slightly harder for you to access or use Unreel or Unreel Pro, we also give you the notice in a form you can save and print unchanged. You can then end the agreement free of charge within 30 days of being told or of the change, whichever is later. Your legal rights, such as getting back what you paid for the time after the end, are not affected.
- We do not reduce the number of analyses included in your Unreel Pro subscription while it keeps renewing, unless you agree to the change.
- Unreel may sometimes be unavailable, for example during maintenance, to fix a security problem, or when a service provider has an outage. We work to keep such interruptions short.
- If we stop offering Unreel altogether, we tell you in the app at least 30 days in advance, so that you can export your cards. Pro then stops renewing, so you are not charged after the end.
11. Ending the agreement
- You can end the agreement at any time by deleting your account in the app: tap Delete account on the You screen (You › Delete account). You can also email us. Deleting your account removes your library, your profile, your friends and the cards you sent. Copies your friends kept stay in their library. A few records are kept for a limited time, as the Privacy Policy (unreel.buildeasy.eu/privacy) explains.
- Deleting your account does not cancel Unreel Pro. Cancel it in Settings › Apple Account › Subscriptions.
- If you do not accept a new version of these Terms, we can end the agreement with notice, as section 13 explains.
- Each of us can end the agreement at once for good cause, as the law allows, for example after a serious breach of these Terms. If we end it and you have Unreel Pro, we remind you in the app to cancel it in Settings › Apple Account › Subscriptions. Anything you paid for the time after the end is refunded as the law requires.
Withdrawal
The free plan is a free service: it costs nothing, and we use the personal data it involves only to provide Unreel to you, which includes keeping it safe and meeting our legal duties. So it carries no statutory right of withdrawal. Instead, you can end the agreement at any time by deleting your account in the app (You › Delete account).
Unreel Pro is bought from Apple through the App Store. Cancellation, refunds and any right to withdraw from that purchase are Apple's, as section 9 explains. You can ask Apple for a refund at reportaproblem.apple.com, and cancel in Settings › Apple Account › Subscriptions.
12. Our liability
We are liable without limit:
- for damage we cause intentionally or through gross negligence;
- for injury to life, body or health;
- under product liability law;
- where we have given a guarantee or have deliberately concealed a defect.
If we cause damage through slight negligence, we are liable only if we breach an essential obligation. An essential obligation is one that must be met for Unreel to work as agreed at all, and that you can normally rely on. In that case, our liability is limited to the damage that is typical for this kind of contract and that could be foreseen when the agreement was made. Otherwise, we are not liable for slight negligence.
These rules also apply to people who help us provide Unreel. They do not affect your other legal rights if Unreel does not work as agreed, for example your right to have a fault fixed.
13. Changes to these Terms
- We may update these Terms, for example when we add features, when the law changes, or when a service Unreel depends on changes.
- When we do, the app shows you the new version and asks whether you accept it. We summarise what changed at the top of this page.
- A new version applies to you only once you accept it. We never treat silence or continued use as acceptance.
- If you do not accept it, the previous version continues to apply, and you can keep using Unreel under it. We may then end the agreement with at least 4 weeks' notice in the app. If you have Unreel Pro, the agreement ends no earlier than the end of the Pro period you have paid for, and we remind you to cancel Pro in Settings › Apple Account › Subscriptions so that it does not renew.
- You can also end the agreement yourself at any time (section 11).
14. Apple and the App Store
Apple requires the following points in the licence agreement of every app on the App Store. Here, "the app" means the Unreel app for iPhone.
- Who the agreement is with. These Terms are an agreement between you and us only, not with Apple. We, not Apple, are solely responsible for the app and its content.
- Your licence. We give you a non-transferable licence to use the app on any Apple-branded products that you own or control, as the Usage Rules in Apple's Media Services Terms allow. Other accounts linked to you through Family Sharing or volume purchasing may also use it.
- Maintenance and support. We alone provide maintenance and support for the app, as these Terms describe and the law requires. Apple has no obligation at all to provide maintenance or support for the app.
- If the app is faulty. We, not Apple, are responsible for any warranty for the app, whether it comes from the law or from us. If the app does not meet an applicable warranty, you can tell Apple, and Apple will refund the price you paid for the app, if any. As far as the law allows, Apple has no other warranty obligation for the app. Any other claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs or expenses caused by the app not meeting a warranty are our responsibility, as section 12 and the law provide.
- Claims about the app. We, not Apple, deal with any claims by you or anyone else about the app or your having or using it. This includes product liability claims, claims that the app does not meet a legal or regulatory requirement, and claims under consumer protection, privacy or similar laws. These Terms do not limit our liability to you beyond what the law allows.
- Intellectual property claims. If someone claims that the app, or your having or using it, infringes their intellectual property rights, we, not Apple, are solely responsible for investigating, defending, settling and discharging that claim.
- US export rules. You may not use the app if you are located in a country that is subject to a U.S. Government embargo or that the U.S. Government has designated as a "terrorist supporting" country, or if you are on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties. By accepting these Terms, you confirm that none of this applies to you.
- Other terms. When you use the app, you must also follow the terms of the other services you use with it, for example your mobile data contract and the terms of Instagram, TikTok and YouTube.
- Apple as a beneficiary. Apple and Apple's subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms. Once you accept these Terms, Apple has the right (and is deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce them against you as a third-party beneficiary.
- Questions and complaints. Send any questions, complaints or claims about the app to us, using the contact details in section 16.
Unlike Apple's standard licence agreement, these Terms contain no general cap on our liability and do not provide the app "as is". Our liability is as section 12 describes, and your legal rights if Unreel is not as agreed are not affected.
15. Law and disputes
- German law applies to these Terms. If you are a consumer and live in another country, you also keep the protection of the mandatory consumer laws of that country.
- If something goes wrong, please write to us first. We will try to solve it with you.
