Third-party notices for the AlohaKai app
App and written content
The AlohaKai app code is original work for this project. The English scripts were written or adapted for this app, and facts were checked against the sources listed for each place. Facts are not copyrightable; where a summary or script is adapted from Wikipedia, that portion and its narration remain under CC BY-SA 4.0.
Narration
All 310 narrations were generated locally at build time with Kokoro-82M (voice af_heart, Apache 2.0) through kokoro-onnx. No hosted text-to-speech service is used, and the app makes no speech request at runtime. The model files are pinned and hash-verified by the build tool.
Photographs
Cover photographs come from Wikimedia Commons. Each image was selected for the specific place and filtered to a free licence: public domain, CC0, CC BY or CC BY-SA. The photographer, licence, source URL and the change made are recorded per image in each pack's licenses/IMAGES.md and IMAGES.json, and are shown in the app under Settings → Image credits and licenses. CC BY-SA images are used unmodified apart from resizing and re-encoding.
Maps and geographic data
The Hawaii pack includes an offline PMTiles basemap derived from OpenStreetMap, built with Protomaps. OpenStreetMap data is © OpenStreetMap contributors, available under the Open Database License (ODbL). Natural Earth layers are public domain. MapLibre Native renders the local style on device and is used under the BSD 2-Clause licence. The app displays “© OpenStreetMap contributors · Protomaps” whenever the offline map is active. Apple MapKit provides the online basemap under Apple's terms.
Written sources
Facts are checked against the U.S. National Park Service (public domain), the Hawaiʻi Department of Land and Natural Resources, the City and County of Honolulu, the U.S. Office of the Historian, Wikipedia (CC BY-SA where cited), and official venue and visitor sites. Each place's sources field records the exact title, link and licence note used for that entry.
Open-source software distributed in the app
GRDB.swift (MIT) provides SQLite access. ZIPFoundation (MIT) reads .tmguide archives. MapLibre Native iOS (BSD 2-Clause) renders offline PMTiles maps. The full MIT and BSD licence texts are bundled in the app and available under Settings → Third-party notices.
Apple frameworks
AlohaKai uses SwiftUI, MapKit, Foundation Models / Apple Intelligence, Vision, AVFoundation, Speech, Core Location and StoreKit 2 under Apple's terms. Apple Intelligence runs on device. The app does not send personal data to a server, does not track users, and does not include advertising or analytics SDKs.
