BetterScanner Terms of Use.
Last updated: November 8, 2026
These terms apply to Better Scanner : Text & Notes ("BetterScanner", "the app"), made by Approud Co., Ltd. ("Approud", "we"). By using the app you agree to them and to Apple's Licensed Application End User License Agreement, which also applies.
Free and Pro
You can use BetterScanner for free. The free version adds a watermark to exported documents and limits how many documents you can export each week.
BetterScanner Pro removes the watermark and the export limit, and unlocks Pro features such as iCloud sync. It's offered as weekly, monthly, 6-month and yearly auto-renewing subscriptions. The yearly plan includes a 3-day free trial for eligible new subscribers. Prices are shown in the app before you buy and may differ by country.
How subscriptions renew. Payment is charged to your Apple Account when you confirm the purchase, or when a free trial ends. A subscription renews automatically at the same price and length unless you cancel it at least 24 hours before the current period ends. Your account is charged for the renewal within 24 hours before the period ends.
Free trial. If you cancel during the trial, you won't be charged. Any unused part of a free trial ends when you buy a subscription.
Cancelling. Manage or cancel your subscription in Settings → [your name] → Subscriptions. Cancelling stops the next renewal; Pro stays on until the end of the period you've paid for.
Restoring. On a new iPhone or iPad, open BetterScanner › Settings › Restore purchases.
Refunds are handled by Apple under its policies: reportaproblem.apple.com.
Your documents
You keep all rights to the documents you scan, import and create. You're responsible for them, including making sure you're allowed to scan, copy, sign or share them, especially identity documents and other people's information.
Text recognition, translation and suggested document names are produced automatically on your device and may contain mistakes. Check anything important, such as numbers, names or legal text, before you rely on it.
Your documents are stored on your device, and in your iCloud account if you turn on sync. Keep your own backups: if you delete the app, or lose or reset your device without a backup, documents that aren't in iCloud can't be recovered, and we can't recover them for you.
Using the app
The app and its design belong to Approud or its licensors. You may use it for your own personal or business documents. Don't tamper with the app or try to get Pro features without buying them.
Availability
We may change, add or remove features. Scanning and editing work without an internet connection; purchases and iCloud sync need one.
Liability
The app is provided "as is". To the extent the law allows, Approud isn't liable for indirect or consequential losses arising from your use of the app, including lost documents or errors in recognised or translated text. Nothing in these terms limits rights you have under the consumer law of your country.
Changes
We may update these terms. If we do, we'll update this page and the date above. Continuing to use the app after that means you accept the new terms.
