DiphonyTerms of Use
Last updated 1 September 2026
These terms govern your use of the Diphony application for macOS. By installing or using Diphony you agree to them. Diphony is distributed through the Mac App Store, so Apple's Licensed Application End User License Agreement also applies; where the two differ, the terms below add detail rather than replace it.
What the app does
Diphony records a meeting as two separate audio tracks — your microphone and your Mac's system audio — and transcribes them on your device, so each line of the transcript is attributed to the correct side. All processing happens locally; see the Privacy Policy.
Free plan and Pro
- Free — two recording sessions per day, and each session records up to 60 minutes. The daily counter resets at local midnight; when a session reaches 60 minutes it stops on its own and the part already recorded is kept and transcribed. Sessions you already recorded stay yours and never become unreadable.
- Pro — unlimited sessions, any length. Two ways to pay for the same Pro: monthly subscription (with a 3-day free trial for new subscribers) or a one-time lifetime purchase.
Subscription terms
- Payment is charged to your Apple Account when you confirm the purchase.
- The subscription renews automatically at the then-current price unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
- If you start the 3-day free trial, any unused portion is forfeited when you buy a subscription. Cancelling during the trial costs nothing.
- Manage or cancel your subscription any time in App Store › your account › Subscriptions. Cancelling stops future renewals; it does not refund the period already paid for.
- The lifetime purchase is a one-time payment. Nothing renews.
Prices are shown in the app in your local currency before you confirm, taken directly from the App Store.
Refunds
All purchases are processed by Apple. Refund requests go through Apple at reportaproblem.apple.com. We cannot issue refunds ourselves, but write to us and we will help you sort out the problem.
Your recordings, your responsibility
Recording a conversation may require the consent of the other participants. Laws differ by country and by state. You are responsible for having whatever permission the law where you are requires before you record. Diphony provides the tool, not the legal basis.
Acceptable use
Do not use Diphony to record people unlawfully, to break into systems, or in any way that violates applicable law. Do not attempt to bypass the purchase mechanism.
Warranty and liability
Diphony is provided "as is". Transcription is produced by a machine-learning model and will contain mistakes; do not rely on it as a verbatim legal record without checking it. To the extent permitted by law, our total liability is limited to the amount you paid for the app in the twelve months before the claim.
Open-source components
Diphony includes third-party open-source software; full license texts ship inside the app under Settings › Open-source licenses.
Changes
We may update these terms; the current version always lives at this address with its date. Continuing to use the app after a change means you accept it.
