Safar

Terms of Use - Safar

Last updated: 7 August 2026

These terms cover your use of the Safar app on Android and iOS, and the web version. By using the app you accept them. If you do not, please do not use it.

What the app is

Safar plans an electric-car journey. It simulates a specific drive - the climb and descent of the road, the air you push through at the speed you hold, the forecast temperature and wind for the hour you will be at each point - and tells you the charge you would have left on arrival, where you would drop to your floor, and where you could charge on the way.

What the app is not

Every figure it gives you is an estimate, and it can be wrong.

It works the drive out from physics and from figures you typed in. It has never seen your car, your right foot, your tyres, the state of your battery, the traffic on the day, or a road closure. It reads charger locations and availability from third-party databases which are frequently out of date, and it cannot know whether a charger will be working, free, or reachable when you arrive.

Treat it as a well-informed opinion, not a promise. Do not set off with less charge than you would be comfortable with if the app were not there. Keep a margin, and verify your charging stops independently before you rely on them.

The app is not a navigation system. It hands the route to Google Maps or OpenStreetMap for driving directions and takes no part in the drive itself.

Your responsibility

You are responsible for your own driving and for the decisions you make on a journey, including where and when to charge. Obey traffic law. Do not operate the app while driving.

No warranty, and the limit of our liability

The app is provided "as is", without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including fitness for a particular purpose. We do not warrant that it will be accurate, uninterrupted, or free of error.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any loss, damage, cost or inconvenience arising from your use of the app - including a journey that took longer than predicted, a charger that was missing, broken or busy, or a vehicle that ran out of charge.

Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law.

Third-party services

To plan a drive the app contacts services run by other people - Google, Open Charge Map, OpenStreetMap and its Overpass and Nominatim servers, Open-Meteo, OpenRouteService, OSRM, Photon, and Amazon Web Services for terrain. Their data is theirs, their terms are their own, and we do not control what they return. Which service is used for what is set out in the privacy policy.

Map data from OpenStreetMap is © OpenStreetMap contributors, available under the Open Database Licence. Charger data from Open Charge Map is under its own licence. Google services are subject to Google's terms.

Advertising

The Android app shows a banner advertisement served by Google AdMob, and a full-screen one after a plan has been made and read. What AdMob collects is described in the privacy policy. The iOS app carries no advertising.

Removing the ads

The Android app offers an optional subscription that removes the advertisements. It removes them and does nothing else: every other part of Safar is free, works the same way, and always will.

It is sold and billed by Google Play, on monthly, three-monthly and yearly plans. It renews by itself until you cancel it, and you cancel it in the Play Store under Subscriptions - not here. Cancelling stops the next renewal; the advertisements return when the period you have already paid for ends. Refunds are Google's to give, under Google Play's own policy.

The subscription belongs to the Google account signed in to the Play Store, not to a handset. Change phone, sign in with the same account, and the app finds it again on its own - there is nothing to restore by hand.

Android and iOS are separate purchases. Safar has no accounts and asks you to sign in to nothing, which is deliberate: there is no login, no password, and nothing on our side that identifies you. The cost of that is that we have no way to know that an Android user and an iPhone user are the same person. A subscription bought on Google Play works only on Android; moving to an iPhone means buying again on the App Store, and the same is true in the other direction. We would rather say this plainly before you pay than have you find it out afterwards.

Your data

There is no account and no login. What the app remembers - your trip log, your car settings, your saved plans - stays on your phone and is deleted when you uninstall it.

We run one service, which relays charger, search and routing requests to Google and caches the answers. It stores roads and chargers, not people, and it holds nothing that identifies you. Your logged drives are sent to it only if you switch that on yourself; the switch is off until you do. The privacy policy is the full account of both.

Our rights in the app

The app, its design and its source are © 2026 VoxHelper AI. All rights reserved. You may use the app; you may not sell it, pass it off as your own, or build a competing product out of it.

Third-party components carry their own licences, which are honoured.

Changes

These terms may change as the app does. The date at the top says when they last did. Continuing to use the app after a change means accepting it.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of India, and the courts of India have jurisdiction.

A plain-language note, outside the terms: this app was written because nothing existing would tell an Indian EV driver what a specific mountain drive would actually cost. It is honest about what it does not know, and the safety margin exists because the model is not perfect. Please use it that way.
