These terms of use apply to the Capstone iOS app provided by Josh Waller, trading as Kovus. They supplement Apple’s Standard Licensed Application End User License Agreement. By downloading or using the app, you agree to these terms and Apple’s Standard EULA. If these terms conflict with rights that cannot lawfully be excluded, those rights continue to apply.
An unofficial study app
Unofficial study app. Not affiliated with or endorsed by any government, regulator, TAFE or registered training organisation.
Capstone is a revision app, not the Capstone assessment.
Study practice only
Capstone is study practice for electrical apprentices. It is not training, it is not an assessment, and it does not qualify anyone to do electrical work. Electrical work must be done by appropriately licensed people under the laws of their state or territory. Follow your trainer, your registered training organisation and the current standards. Where the app differs from them, they apply.
Timed practice is revision practice, not a copy of any provider’s assessment. Scores, progress and other results in the app are revision measures, not a prediction of any assessment result. Kovus does not guarantee any assessment result.
Content and errors
Questions are written for this app and haven’t been independently reviewed. Report anything that looks wrong.
Content may contain errors. If an answer, working step or diagram looks wrong, tap Report a problem on the Show working sheet or in the review after timed practice, or email josh@kovus.dev.
Full access
Capstone is free to download. Before you buy, you can answer a sample question, set up your study plan and, if you like, take a quick check of up to six questions. To keep studying you need Full access. Choose Lifetime to start with a seven-day free trial, or Weekly for a subscription charged immediately. The purchase screen shows what this version includes, the price in your App Store currency and the payment terms before you confirm. Apple shows the transaction again on its own purchase sheet.
Kovus uses RevenueCat to check whether you have Full access. Access depends on a valid App Store transaction.
What Lifetime means
Paid Lifetime is a one-time purchase. It never renews and you are not charged again for it. It gives Full access to everything in Capstone, including questions and chapters added in later updates of the app, for as long as Capstone is available and supports your iPhone’s version of iOS.
Lifetime stays with the Apple Account that bought it. Restore purchase brings it back on a new or reinstalled iPhone signed in to that Apple Account.
Seven-day Lifetime trial
The first Lifetime selection offers a 7-day free trial of Full access through a free, non-consumable App Store purchase called 7-day Trial. It starts when Apple confirms that transaction and ends seven days after its original purchase date. It is available once per Apple Account. Restore purchase, reinstalling the app and erasing study data do not restart it.
There is no automatic charge at the end of the trial and nothing to cancel. During or after the trial, you can choose to buy paid Lifetime or subscribe to Weekly in a separate transaction. The purchase screen shows the current price before you confirm. If you do not buy, Full access ends when the trial ends, and your study data stays on your iPhone.
Weekly subscription
Weekly gives Full access for a one-week subscription period. It has no free trial: Apple charges your Apple Account when you confirm. It renews weekly unless you cancel in your Apple Account subscriptions. Capstone Settings shows Manage subscription for an active subscription. Cancelling stops renewals, and Full access follows the entitlement period reported by the App Store. Deleting Capstone does not cancel a subscription.
Payment and refunds
Apple charges paid Lifetime once and Weekly as a renewing subscription. Starting the free Lifetime trial costs nothing. Apple controls billing, receipts and refunds.
Refund requests and billing disputes are handled by Apple under App Store rules, at reportaproblem.apple.com. Kovus cannot issue a refund for a purchase made through the App Store. This does not limit your rights under the Australian Consumer Law.
Restoring Full access
To restore Full access, tap Restore purchase on the Welcome screen, on the purchase screen or in Capstone Settings, with your iPhone signed in to the Apple Account that made the purchase. Restore brings back paid Lifetime, an active Weekly subscription or a trial that has not ended. It does not restore study data or extend a trial.
Price changes
Kovus may change purchase prices. A new Lifetime price applies to new purchases only and does not affect Lifetime already bought. Subscription price changes are handled by Apple under its App Store rules.
Without Full access
Without Full access, Capstone shows the Full access screen before you can keep studying. Your study data stays on your iPhone, and you carry on from where you left off once you have Full access. From that screen you can choose a purchase or restore one, turn study reminders off, export your progress, erase your study data, get help, and read these terms and the privacy policy.
Family Sharing
Capstone purchases are not shared through Apple Family Sharing.
Your study data
Your study data, saved workings and personal notes are stored on your iPhone. Kovus does not keep a server copy, so it cannot restore lost study data. Export progress in Settings or on the Full access screen creates a file you can keep as a copy for your records; the app can’t load it back in. Erase all study data removes your study data, saved workings and personal notes from the app. You are responsible for any copies you export or back up. The privacy policy explains what is stored and how.
Acceptable use
You must not:
- break the law or infringe another person’s rights through the app;
- copy, publish, sell or redistribute the app’s questions, worked solutions or diagrams, except where applicable law expressly allows it;
- attempt to bypass purchase checks or other security controls; or
- reverse engineer the app, except where applicable law expressly allows it.
Intellectual property and licence
Kovus owns, or is licensed to use, the rights in the Capstone app, its software, design, questions, worked solutions, diagrams and copy, to the extent those rights exist. The chapter illustrations were made with Google’s Vertex AI image model and then edited by Kovus. Software from other developers is used under its own licences, listed in the app under Settings, About Capstone, Open-source licences.
Your licence to use the app is granted under Apple’s Standard Licensed Application End User License Agreement. It does not transfer ownership.
Consumer guarantees and liability
Nothing in these terms excludes, restricts or modifies a right or remedy that cannot lawfully be excluded, including the consumer guarantees under the Australian Consumer Law.
Changes to the app or terms
Kovus may update the app and these terms to improve the app, correct content, address security issues or meet legal requirements. Material changes will be dated on this page. If you do not agree with an updated term, stop using the app. Price changes are covered under Price changes above.
