Short, because there's not much to agree to.

Acceptance

By using the OpenInstaCine app or this website, you agree to these terms. If you don't agree, don't use them.

License and source

OpenInstaCine is free and open source, licensed under the Apache License 2.0. You may use, modify, and share it under that license. The full source code is public. There are no app accounts, no fees, and no subscriptions.

If you install the app from the App Store or TestFlight, that binary is additionally subject to Apple's standard Licensed Application End User License Agreement. If you install it from Google Play, Google Play's terms also apply to that download.

Optional Frame.io upload, when enabled in a given build, is a direct session with Adobe. Adobe's terms apply to that upload. OpenInstaCine does not operate the Frame.io service.

Unofficial monitor

This is an unofficial field monitor. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or supported by Arashi Vision Inc. (Insta360). Reverse-engineered protocol behavior can be incomplete or wrong. Do not rely on this app as the only way to start or stop a take. Always verify critical settings (recording state, exposure, and media) on the camera itself. Record from the camera body until those commands are proven. Use on productions is at your own risk.

No warranty and limitation of liability

OpenInstaCine is provided “AS IS”, without warranties or conditions of any kind, as set out in the warranty disclaimer and limitation of liability of the Apache License 2.0. To the maximum extent permitted by law, the project and its contributors are not liable for any damages arising from use of the app, including lost footage, missed takes, or equipment issues.

Trademarks and affiliation

“Insta360” and “Luna” are trademarks of Arashi Vision Inc., used only to identify the camera the app can talk to. Apple, AirPods, Google, Adobe, Frame.io, and other names used in the app or on this site belong to their respective owners and are used for identification only. OpenInstaCine is an independent open-source project, not affiliated with or endorsed by any of them. No Insta360 SDK is included or required.

Participating in the project

By using the app you agree to follow the project's Code of Conduct when participating in the project, for example in GitHub issues, discussions, and pull requests.
