Mecmua: Symmetry Drawing Pad — Terms of Use
Last updated: September 2026
Terms of Use governing your use of the Mecmua application and its optional one-time unlock.
1. Description of the Service
Mecmua is a drawing application for iOS (iPad and iPhone, and where available other Apple platforms) offered by Cihat SALIK ("we," "us," or "our"). It lets you draw with flowing ink that is folded through kaleidoscope, frieze and wallpaper symmetry groups, and to save and export the results. Most of the App is free to use; some features are unlocked by a single, optional in-app purchase. By downloading, installing, or using the App, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the App.
2. Eligibility
You must be at least 13 years of age (or the minimum age required in your country to consent to use of the App) to use the App. If you are under 18, you should use the App only with the involvement of a parent or guardian. By using the App, you represent that you meet these requirements.
3. Free Features and the One-Time Unlock
3.1 What is free
Drawing tools, layers, undo, the pattern library, symmetry up to twelve mirrors and standard-resolution export are available at no cost.
3.2 Mecmua Unlimited
Mecmua Unlimited is a non-consumable in-app purchase. It is paid once and is not a subscription; nothing renews and nothing is billed again. It unlocks 8K still export, looping video and Live Photo export, mirror counts above twelve, and the full set of seventeen wallpaper groups. The exact contents of the unlock are described in the App and on its App Store product page and may change as the App develops.
3.3 Payment, restore and refunds
Payment is charged to your Apple ID account at confirmation of purchase. Because the purchase is non-consumable, you can restore it on your other devices signed in with the same Apple ID using the restore option in the App. Refund requests are handled by Apple, not by us: use Apple's "Report a Problem" or the refund flow in the App Store. We do not control Apple's refund decisions.
4. Acceptable Use
You agree to use the App only for lawful purposes and in a way that does not:
- Violate any applicable law or regulation.
- Infringe or misuse the intellectual property or other rights of us or any third party.
- Transmit harmful, offensive, or illegal content, or use the App to harass or harm others.
- Reverse-engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract source code of the App (except as allowed by mandatory law).
- Circumvent or abuse purchase, access control, or security features.
- Use the App to build a similar or competing product or service.
We may suspend or terminate your access to the App if we reasonably believe you have breached these Terms.
5. Your Artwork and Data
Your artwork: You keep ownership of everything you draw in the App, and you are free to use, publish and sell it. We claim no rights in your drawings and we do not need a license to them, because they never leave your device on our account.
On-device operation: Drawings, undo history and exports are created and stored on your device. The microphone, if you enable Passive mode, is read only to drive the drawing and no audio is recorded or transmitted.
Privacy: Collection and use of your data are described in our Privacy Policy at https://apps.cihat.dev/mecmua/privacy-policy/. By using the App, you also agree to that policy.
6. Our Intellectual Property
The App (including its design, code, shaders, text, graphics, and the "Mecmua" name and branding) is owned by us or our licensors and is protected by copyright and other laws. These Terms do not grant you any right to our trademarks or other IP except the limited right to use the App as permitted here. The generated pattern library shipped with the App may be used freely inside your own artwork.
7. Disclaimers
The App is provided "as is" and "as available." We do not promise that the App will be error-free, uninterrupted, or fit for any particular purpose.
We are not responsible for any loss of content (for example, drawings) due to device failure, user action, or other causes. You are responsible for backing up your content as you see fit, for example by exporting to Photos or Files.
8. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law:
- We (and our affiliates and suppliers) shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for loss of profits, data, or goodwill, arising from your use of the App or inability to use it.
- Our total liability for any claims arising from or related to the App or these Terms shall not exceed the amount you actually paid us for the App and in-app purchases in the twelve (12) months before the claim (or, if no payment, zero).
Some jurisdictions do not allow certain disclaimers or limitations, so some of the above may not apply to you; in that case our liability is limited to the greatest extent allowed by law.
9. Changes to the App and These Terms
We may update the App from time to time. We may change these Terms. We will post the updated Terms at https://apps.cihat.dev/mecmua/terms-of-use/ and update the "Last updated" date. Your continued use of the App after the change constitutes acceptance. If you do not agree, you must stop using the App.
Features already unlocked by the one-time purchase remain unlocked; we will not move a previously purchased feature behind a new payment.
10. Third-Party Terms
Your use of the App is also subject to Apple's applicable terms, including the App Store Terms of Use and the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions, where relevant. In case of conflict between those and these Terms regarding the App's purchase or use, these Terms govern the relationship between you and us; Apple's terms govern your relationship with Apple.
11. Governing Law and Disputes
These Terms are governed by the laws of Turkey, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute arising from or related to the App or these Terms shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Istanbul, Turkey, to the extent permitted by law.
12. General
Entire agreement: These Terms (together with our Privacy Policy and any in-app terms we expressly reference) constitute the entire agreement between you and us regarding the App.
Severability: If any part of these Terms is held invalid or unenforceable, the rest remains in effect.
No waiver: Our failure to enforce any right or provision does not waive that right or provision.
