Email support@pagetapapp.com and a human reads it. Say what you were scanning and add a screenshot — that is usually enough to settle it in one reply.

Scanning and filters

The edges of my page look wrong

Keep the whole page inside the frame and the lighting even. A white page on a white table is the hardest case for edge detection. You can retake any page before you save.

Which filter should I use?

Color keeps the photo as shot. Grayscale drops the color, keeps the shading. Black & White is the high-contrast look for plain text pages you want to read or print.

OCR

How accurate is the searchable text?

Best effort, run entirely on your phone with Apple’s on-device text recognition. It can miss or misread words, especially on handwriting, glare or low-contrast paper. The page image is always the record of what you scanned; the text layer only makes it searchable where recognition succeeds.

Why can't I turn on OCR?

The searchable text layer is a Premium feature. Free documents save without it. Premium turns it on by default for every new document, with a per-document toggle if you would rather skip it.

The footer

What is "Scanned with PageTap" on my page?

A small 8-point mark in the corner of each page on a free document. It never covers your content, and Premium saves with no footer at all.

Subscriptions

What does Premium add?

No daily limit, no footer, full document history, and the searchable OCR text layer on by default. Premium Weekly is $4.99/week, Premium Monthly is $9.99/month with a 7-day free trial for eligible new subscribers, and Premium Yearly is $29.99/year with a 7-day free trial for eligible new subscribers.

How do I cancel a subscription?

Apple manages subscriptions, not us: Settings app, tap your name, then Subscriptions. Cancelling stops any future charge and you keep Premium until the end of the period you already paid for.

Can I get a refund?

Refunds are handled by Apple under their policies, not by us. Request one at reportaproblem.apple.com.

I subscribed on one phone and want it on another

Sign in to the same Apple Account on the other phone and tap Restore on the PageTap paywall.

Privacy

Do you keep my documents?

No. There is no server anywhere in PageTap. Your pages, filters, OCR text and saved PDFs are processed and stored on your phone only — see the privacy policy.

Where do my files live, and how do I delete them?

In the app’s own storage on your phone. Delete a document from the Documents list, or delete the app to remove everything at once. We hold nothing tied to you that could be looked up.

Everything else

Does PageTap work on Android or iPad?

iPhone only for now, iOS 17 or later.

I found a bug

Email support@pagetapapp.com with your iPhone model, the iOS version, and what you were doing. Screenshots help.
