By using Cue you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the app.

What Cue is

Cue is a practice tool. An AI examiner runs mock IELTS Speaking tests and gives an estimated band score and feedback. Estimates are produced by an AI model from a transcript and can be wrong; they are not official IELTS results and do not predict your real score. Cue is not affiliated with or endorsed by the IELTS partners.

Practice minutes, subscriptions and credits

• New devices receive one free minute of practice, once.
• Subscriptions (weekly or yearly) grant a practice-minute allowance for each billing period. Unused minutes do not roll over. Yearly plans release minutes monthly.
• Credit packs add minutes that do not expire.
• Minutes are consumed while a session is live, including while the examiner is speaking or waiting for you. Each session has a maximum length (about 15 minutes for a full mock, 5 minutes for a Part 2 practice). If the app is closed or loses connection, the session ends and you are charged only for the time it was actually live.
• Payment is charged to your Apple ID. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period; manage or cancel them in iOS Settings → Subscriptions. Refunds are handled by Apple under Apple's terms.
• Prices are shown in the app before purchase and may change for future periods with notice.

Fair use

Do not attempt to bypass minute limits, tamper with the app, resell access, or use the service for anything other than personal exam practice. We may suspend access to protect the service; abusive automated use may be blocked.

Your content

You keep ownership of what you say. You grant us the limited right to process your speech and transcripts as described in the Privacy Policy, solely to run and score your sessions.

Availability

The service depends on third-party AI and cloud providers and may be interrupted or changed. We may pause sessions for maintenance or when daily capacity is reached. We do not guarantee uninterrupted availability.

Disclaimer and liability

Cue is provided "as is". To the extent permitted by law, we are not liable for exam outcomes, indirect losses, or damages arising from use of the app. Nothing in these terms limits rights you have as a consumer under mandatory law.
