Purchase and restore
Tap the localized price in the in-app paywall to open the Google Play purchase sheet. The app acknowledges a successful purchase before granting a new entitlement. Use Restore purchase after reinstalling or changing devices with the same Google account.
Pending, declined or interrupted purchases
A pending purchase does not unlock paid access until Google Play reports it as completed. The app displays a pending state and rechecks purchase ownership when billing reconnects and when the app returns to the foreground.
Refunds, revocations and order history
Google Play handles payment and refund decisions. A refunded or revoked purchase can remove the entitlement after Play reports the change. View orders at Google Play purchase history. For eligible refund options, use the controls shown by Google Play or contact Google Play support.
No subscription at launch
Lifetime Pro is a one-time purchase. There is no trial, automatic renewal or recurring charge in the current OakWave launch release.
Advertising
In the maintained policy-gated Android release candidate, Free users may see clearly labelled visual banners in Home, Explore, Search-within-Explore, the combined Library/Favourites/History destination, and the normal low-risk Settings area. Full Player may additionally reserve one visually separate anchored adaptive banner at the bottom only when a dedicated layout-safety gate confirms sufficient space. Favourites and History are sections of Library in the current navigation, so OakWave does not fabricate separate routes or stack duplicate banners there. The first three completed-onboarding sessions are ad-free; each real foreground placement permits at most one app-triggered reservation per effective session with a ten-minute per-placement interval, while refresh remains owned by the provider/ad unit rather than app timers or recomposition. The Full Player banner never overlays or compresses playback controls and is suppressed for unsafe compact or large-text layouts, background/invisible state, purchases, restore, privacy surfaces, critical recovery, or Lifetime Pro. Notification, lock-screen, Android Auto, external Cast/media and background surfaces remain free of RuleOak-inserted advertising. RuleOak does not add app-open, interstitial, forced rewarded or custom audio ads, and advertising callbacks do not control playback. Banner requests start muted; if an absolute no-ad-sound guarantee requires excluding sound-capable video creatives, that inventory restriction must be confirmed in AdMob before production qualification. Broadcaster-carried advertising inside a live stream is outside RuleOak's control. Activation requires distinct valid per-placement AdMob identifiers, consent handling, current privacy and Data safety declarations, public app-ads.txt verification and a verified product-policy/build switch. Lifetime Pro immediately stops RuleOak-inserted ad requests and removes reserved ad space without requiring a restart.
