1. About these terms
These Terms of Service (“Terms”) apply to the Fun Drive Android app, its voice packs, and this website (together, “Fun Drive”). Fun Drive is made by the Fun Drive team (“we”, “us”). By installing or using Fun Drive, or by signing up for the beta, you agree to these Terms. If you don’t agree, please don’t use Fun Drive.
2. Driving safety
- Fun Drive re-voices the directions Google Maps already shows. Google Maps, road signs and traffic laws always come first. If Fun Drive says something different from them, or says nothing at all, follow the road.
- Fun Drive can miss, delay or skip instructions. Some turns are shown by Maps only as icons, and not every street name is recorded.
- Set up the app while parked, or let a passenger do it. Do not interact with your phone while driving.
- Keep the volume at a level where you can still hear traffic, sirens and your passengers.
- You are responsible for driving safely and legally at all times.
3. Who can use Fun Drive
The Fun Drive app is meant for adult drivers. Kids mode is entertainment for passengers, and the adult driver is responsible for using it. The beta sign-up on this website is for people aged 18 or older.
4. Beta and early access
Fun Drive is in early access. Beta versions may contain bugs, change without notice, or stop working, and they are provided for testing and feedback. The beta is free.
5. Fees
- Fun Drive will not stay free forever. After launch Fun Drive is a paid app: a low yearly subscription covers the included voices, and additional voices may be sold as one-time purchases. This pays for new voices, updates and keeping the app working with Google Maps. Without an active subscription, one voice keeps giving plain directions.
- We will clearly tell you the price before you are ever charged. You will never be charged without agreeing to it in Google Play.
- Payments, renewals, cancellations and refunds are handled by Google Play under its own terms and refund policies. You can cancel a subscription any time in Google Play. It then stays active until the end of the period you paid for.
- Prices may change in the future. Any price change for an existing subscription will be announced in advance, as Google Play requires, and you can cancel before it applies.
6. Changes and discontinuation
- We may change, add or remove features, themes, characters and voice lines at any time.
- Fun Drive is a small, independent project. If it can no longer be maintained, for example because it stops being sustainable or because changes to Google Maps or Android stop it from working, we may suspend or discontinue the app, its voice downloads, or paid plans.
- If we discontinue Fun Drive, we will try to give reasonable notice on this website and in the app. Subscriptions will stop renewing. Where Google Play policy or the law requires it, we will offer refunds for unused paid time.
- Voices already downloaded may keep working offline after discontinuation, but we can’t promise they will keep working with future versions of Android or Google Maps.
7. Works with Google Maps
Fun Drive depends on Google Maps notifications and on Android features we don’t control. Google may change them at any time, which can make parts of Fun Drive stop working until we update it, or permanently. Fun Drive is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by Google. Google Maps and Google Play are trademarks of Google LLC.
8. Voices and content
- The app works offline. An internet connection is only needed to download voice packs and updates, and to confirm purchases with Google Play.
- We give you a personal, non-transferable, non-commercial license to use Fun Drive and its voice packs on your own devices while you follow these Terms.
- The app, the voice recordings, the scripts, characters, artwork and logo belong to us or our licensors. Please don’t copy, extract, resell or redistribute the recordings, or reverse-engineer the app, except where the law allows it.
- The characters are original interpretations. They are not affiliated with any film, show, franchise or real person.
9. Privacy
Fun Drive has no ads, no tracking and no account. Your directions and routes stay on your phone. See the privacy section for exactly what is and isn’t collected, including beta sign-up emails.
10. Feedback
We love feedback and ideas. If you send them, we may use them to improve Fun Drive without owing you anything for it.
11. No warranty
Fun Drive is provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, to the extent the law allows. We don’t promise it will be accurate, uninterrupted, error-free, or available in your area or on your device.
12. Limitation of liability
To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for any indirect, incidental or consequential damages, or for missed turns, delays, traffic violations, accidents or other losses arising from using or relying on Fun Drive. Our total liability for any claim is limited to the amount you paid for Fun Drive in the 12 months before the claim, or US$10 if you paid nothing. Some places don’t allow these limits, so they may not apply to you, and nothing in these Terms limits rights you have under consumer law that can’t be waived.
13. Ending your use
You can stop using Fun Drive at any time by uninstalling it and cancelling any subscription in Google Play. We may suspend access to downloads for anyone who misuses Fun Drive or breaks these Terms.
14. Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms as Fun Drive grows, for example when paid plans launch. We will change the date at the top, and for important changes we will let you know on this website or in the app. Continuing to use Fun Drive after a change means you accept the new Terms.
