Terms of Use

These terms apply to the Save Status Android app and the SaveStatus.com website.

Last updated:

These Terms of Use (“Terms”) are an agreement between you and Karibu Online (“we”, “us”), the operator of the Save Status Android app (the “App”) and the website SaveStatus.com (the “Site”), together the “Services”. By downloading, installing or using the Services you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you don’t agree, don’t use the Services.

1. Eligibility

You must be at least 13 years old, or the minimum age required to use WhatsApp in your country if higher, to use the Services. If you are under the age of majority where you live, you may use the Services only with the permission of a parent or guardian.

2. What the App does

The App lets you view and keep copies of status photos and videos that WhatsApp or WhatsApp Business has already downloaded to your own device after you viewed them. The App works only with files stored on your device. It does not give access to statuses you haven’t viewed or weren’t allowed to see, and it does not bypass anyone’s privacy settings.

3. Licence

We grant you a personal, worldwide, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to install and use the App on Android devices you own or control, for personal, non-commercial purposes, in line with these Terms and the Google Play Terms of Service. You may not:

  • copy, modify, decompile, reverse engineer or create derivative works of the App, except where the law allows it;
  • rent, sell, sublicense or redistribute the App, or remove our notices or branding;
  • interfere with the App’s ads, for example by generating fake impressions or clicks;
  • use the Services for any unlawful purpose.

4. Your responsibilities and content of others

Statuses belong to the people who posted them. Saving a status with the App gives you a copy, not ownership or any right to republish it. You are solely responsible for how you use content you save. In particular, you agree not to:

  • re-post, sell or publicly share someone else’s content without their permission or another legal right;
  • use saved content to harass, threaten, embarrass, blackmail, impersonate or stalk anyone;
  • infringe copyright, trademark, privacy or publicity rights;
  • break WhatsApp’s, Meta’s or any other platform’s terms of service.

We don’t host, review or control content saved with the App; it never leaves your device through us. Copyright concerns about content on the Site or our store listing are handled under our Copyright & DMCA Policy.

5. Advertising

The App is free and shows ads provided by Google AdMob. Ads are clearly presented as ads. We are not responsible for third-party products, services or websites promoted in ads, and your dealings with advertisers are solely between you and them.

6. Not affiliated

Save Status and SaveStatus.com are independent and are not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by WhatsApp LLC, Meta Platforms, Inc., Instagram, Facebook or TikTok. These and other product names are trademarks of their respective owners and are used only to describe compatibility or the topics we cover.

7. Website content

Articles, images and design on the Site belong to us or our licensors. You may share links and short quotes with attribution. Don’t copy whole articles or republish them without written permission. Guides are provided for general information. Apps change often, and instructions may not match every device or version.

8. Changes, updates and availability

We may update, change or discontinue the App or the Site, or any feature, at any time. Changes made by WhatsApp, Android or your device manufacturer may stop the App from working fully or at all. Updates may be required to keep using the App.

9. Disclaimer of warranties

The Services are provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, and that the Services will be uninterrupted, error-free or compatible with every device or WhatsApp version. Some jurisdictions don’t allow certain disclaimers, so some of these may not apply to you.

10. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for loss of data, content, profits or goodwill, arising from or related to your use of the Services, including any use you make of content saved with the App. Our total liability for any claim relating to the Services will not exceed the greater of the amount you paid us for the Services in the 12 months before the claim (the App is free, so normally zero) or USD 50. Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law.

11. Indemnity

You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from claims, losses and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from your misuse of the Services or of content saved with the App, or from your breach of these Terms or of anyone’s rights.

12. Termination

You can stop using the Services at any time by uninstalling the App. We may suspend or end your right to use the Services if you breach these Terms. Sections 4, 6, 9, 10, 11 and 13 survive termination.

13. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the United Republic of Tanzania, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Disputes will be resolved by the competent courts of Tanzania, unless the consumer protection law of your country gives you the right to bring proceedings in your local courts.

14. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms. We will post the new version here with a new “Last updated” date. If you keep using the Services after changes take effect, you accept the updated Terms.
