WLED Max Terms of Service
Last Updated: October 12, 2026
MeowScript LLC
These WLED Max-specific Terms of Service ("App Terms") supplement our Company Terms of Service. By using WLED Max, you agree to both these App Terms and our Company Terms.
1. About WLED Max
WLED Max is a native iOS and Android application for controlling WLED LED controllers on your local network. The app provides an intuitive interface for managing LED effects, colors, presets, segments, and device configurations through the WLED JSON API. These Terms apply to both the iOS and Android versions.
2. WLED Device Connections
WLED Max connects to WLED controllers on your local network:
- WLED Controllers: Open-source LED control firmware running on ESP8266/ESP32 devices
- Local Network: Controlling your WLED devices happens directly over your local Wi-Fi network
- No Cloud Required for Control: WLED Max does not need an internet connection to control your devices. Some features use the internet and MeowScript servers or other services: usage and purchase stats, error reports, feedback and support, update checks, purchases, and firmware downloads (see the WLED Max Privacy Policy)
Important Disclaimer
WLED Max is a third-party controller app. We are NOT affiliated with the official WLED open-source project.
- Device compatibility depends on your WLED firmware version and hardware
- We are not responsible for issues caused by WLED firmware bugs or hardware failures
- You are responsible for the safe installation and operation of your LED hardware
- Improper LED wiring or power supply configurations can pose safety risks unrelated to this app
3. Local Data Storage
Your device list (including device IP addresses and names), saved presets and app preferences are stored locally on your device, and on iOS some of it may also sync through your own iCloud account. MeowScript does operate servers that store a limited amount of data sent by the app: usage and purchase stats tied to a random install ID (on by default outside the EEA, UK and Switzerland, and only with your consent inside them; you can turn them off in Settings), error reports without an ID (which you can turn off), feedback and support messages you send, and, on iOS, a notification token while you have a support conversation and have allowed notifications. Deleting the app removes the data stored on your device, but not data already on our servers; on iOS the random install ID is kept in your iCloud account and survives reinstalling. See the WLED Max Privacy Policy for what is collected, how long it is kept, and how to request deletion.
4. In-App Purchases
Free Tier
WLED Max is free to download. The free version works with one (1) WLED device.
Premium Upgrade: "Unlimited Devices" (One-Time Purchase)
To use more than one WLED device, you can purchase the one-time "Unlimited Devices" upgrade at the price shown in the App Store or Google Play before purchase (including any local taxes and currency conversion applied by Apple or Google). This is a non-consumable in-app purchase (not a subscription) and does not auto-renew.
Seller of Record and Billing
- iOS: Apple Inc. is the seller of record. Purchases are processed and billed through your Apple ID using Apple StoreKit. Apple's Standard End User License Agreement and the Apple Media Services Terms govern the transaction.
- Android: Google LLC is the seller of record. Purchases are processed and billed through Google Play Billing. Google Play Terms of Service govern the transaction.
- Pricing is displayed in the App Store / Google Play and within the app before purchase
- Purchases are tied to your Apple ID or Google account and can be restored on your own devices
Family Sharing
Whether the "Unlimited Devices" upgrade can be shared through Apple Family Sharing (iOS) or Google Play Family Library (Android) is shown on the App Store or Google Play listing. Eligibility is determined by Apple or Google, not by MeowScript.
Refunds
Refund requests must be directed to the platform you purchased through: reportaproblem.apple.com for iOS or Google Play Help for Android. MeowScript does not process refunds directly. Refund approvals are at Apple's or Google's sole discretion per their refund policies. If you are an EU/UK consumer, you retain any statutory withdrawal rights that apply to digital content.
Price Changes
Because "Unlimited Devices" is a one-time purchase, any future price change applies only to new purchases. It does not retroactively affect users who already own the upgrade.
5. Network and Safety
Safety Notice
WLED Max controls LED hardware on your network. Please observe the following:
- Ensure your WLED devices are properly wired and powered according to manufacturer specifications
- WLED Max requires local network access (on iOS, the Local Network permission) to discover and communicate with devices
- The app sends control commands over your local network - ensure your network is secured
- MeowScript is NOT responsible for any hardware damage, electrical issues, or safety hazards related to your LED installations
- Use of WLED Max with photosensitive individuals should be done with caution, as rapid light changes may cause discomfort
6. Data Storage and Privacy
Please review our WLED Max Privacy Policy for details. Key points: your light settings, device names and addresses, and Wi-Fi details stay on your device unless you choose to send us a diagnostics report; the app sends usage and purchase stats (which you can turn off, and which are off until you agree in the EEA, UK and Switzerland), error reports with IP addresses removed (which you can turn off), and the feedback you choose to send to MeowScript servers, and, while you have a support conversation, it checks our servers for replies; and we do not sell your data, share it for advertising, or use it for advertising.
7. Device Requirements
- iOS: iPhone or iPad running iOS 17.0 or later
- Android: Phone or tablet running Android 9.0 (API 28) or later
- Local network access (on iOS, the Local Network permission) required
- Wi-Fi connection to the same network as your WLED devices
8. Disclaimer of Warranties & Limitation of Liability
IN ADDITION TO THE DISCLAIMERS IN OUR COMPANY TERMS:
- WLED Max is NOT affiliated with or endorsed by the official WLED open-source project
- We do NOT warrant compatibility with all WLED firmware versions or hardware configurations
- We are NOT responsible for hardware damage, electrical issues, or safety hazards
- We do NOT guarantee uninterrupted or error-free device control
- Network conditions and device firmware may affect app functionality
MAXIMUM LIABILITY: Our total liability shall not exceed the total amount you paid for WLED Max (including in-app purchases), or $50 USD, whichever is greater.
9. WLED Open-Source Project
WLED is an open-source project (github.com/wled/WLED) licensed under the European Union Public License 1.2 (EUPL-1.2). WLED Max is an independent third-party application and is not developed, maintained, or endorsed by the WLED project maintainers. "WLED" is used for descriptive purposes to indicate compatibility.
