Terms & desktop licence
Updated 2026-09-13 · Review-stage notice
Free portfolio release
onlysubs is an experimental, free video editor provided by WickWorks in the Philippines for users aged 13+. You may install and use the application for lawful personal or commercial editing. Third-party components remain subject to their own licences. These review-stage terms need legal review before public release. If you are under 18, ask your parent or guardian to review and accept these terms with you.
Your content and permission
You keep ownership of your media and edits. Use footage, recordings, music, fonts, and images only when you have the necessary rights or another lawful basis. Consider the privacy and consent of people recorded, including minors. The app does not grant permission to repost someone else’s work.
Review AI output
Transcripts, timing, crop choices, and clip suggestions can be incorrect or misleading. Review the full result before publication. No guarantee is made about accuracy, audience growth, platform acceptance, or identical export quality. Burning captions requires re-encoding.
Responsible use
Do not use onlysubs for unlawful surveillance, non-consensual intimate imagery, child exploitation, harassment, fraud, impersonation, or copyright infringement. Do not remove safeguards to access another person’s computer or information.
Availability and responsibility
Keep backups of important originals and projects. The application can fail or be interrupted; automatic saving does not guarantee recovery of every operation. This experimental release is provided without promises of uninterrupted or error-free service, to the extent permitted by law. Nothing excludes mandatory consumer rights or liability that cannot legally be excluded. No subscription or payment is required for this release.
Permanent Free tier and voluntary support
Core local transcription, caption editing, manual clipping, combined clips, full-video exports, previews, and storage tools remain free. Optional paid features may be offered later; these core features do not require payment or a subscription. GitHub Sponsors is not active until WickWorks completes verification. Any future voluntary contribution does not create a subscription, purchase, service-level commitment, support priority, or entitlement to future features.
Updates and contact
The installed Windows app checks GitHub for updates at startup and through Help. GitHub receives your IP address and normal request information; videos and transcripts are not sent in update requests. Downloads require your agreement and install when you close the app. Offline use continues if checks fail. The portable 0.3.0 version requires a one-time installer download to enable updates. Contact hello@wickworks.app with questions. Applicable mandatory rights remain unaffected.
