Terms of Service
Last updated: June 1, 2026
These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of the Rattlewise — Noise & Vibration Finder application ("the App") published by Bulpara Inc ("we", "us", "our"). By downloading or using the App, you agree to these Terms.
1. Service Description
Rattlewise is an iOS application that helps you locate the source of rattles, buzzes, and vibrations in cars, EVs, vans, and homes. It plays a frequency sweep to excite a rattle, displays a live FFT spectrum with peak tracking, can use the device accelerometer to confirm structure-borne vibration, produces a confidence-ranked list of likely culprits with a guided fix checklist, and generates a shareable before/after report. All measurement and analysis runs on your device.
2. Important Limitations
Rattlewise is a guidance tool, not a laboratory instrument or a guaranteed diagnosis. You understand and agree that:
- Use the App only while parked or stationary — never while driving. Locating a rattle requires your attention on the screen and on the vehicle's interior.
- The App surfaces likely sources, ranked by confidence. It does not and cannot guarantee that a named part is the true source of a given noise.
- Frequency and dB readings depend on your device's microphone and accelerometer, ambient noise, and how you position the phone. They are approximate and intended for relative comparison (before vs. after), not certified acoustic measurement.
- The App is intended for light-to-moderate cabin and room rattles. Some noises (mechanical faults, drivetrain, brakes, structural issues) cannot be located this way and may require a professional.
- The App makes no safety, mechanical-soundness, roadworthiness, or medical claims. It is not a substitute for inspection by a qualified mechanic or technician.
3. Acceptable Use
You agree to use the App only for lawful purposes and only on vehicles, spaces, and equipment you own or have permission to inspect. You agree not to:
- Use the App while operating a vehicle or any machinery
- Rely on the App as the sole basis for a vehicle sale, purchase, repair, or safety decision
- Reverse engineer, decompile, or extract the App's diagnosis logic or assets
- Attempt to circumvent subscription restrictions or free-tier limitations
- Use the App in any manner that violates applicable laws or third-party rights
4. Subscriptions & Billing

5. User Content
Hunts, proof reports, history, and preferences are stored locally on your device. You retain all rights to the measurements and notes you create. We do not access, collect, or store your content on any server.
