### 1/5 — Not even worth free

*2026-07-21*

Once

### 1/5 — Pain to use and greedy.

*2026-02-12*

Yes, taking pics and using a auto-pdf maker is annoying, but this is far worse. 
First of all, it’s a 1:1 copy of tinyscan, they basically monopolized their greed on any pdf document app scanners. 
Second, you get ONE scan. And then u have to pay. And if u do, u have to pay MORE to do multiple docs. UGHHH pmo

### 1/5 — Useless and overpriced

*2026-01-19*

App description does not make it clear that this app does NOTHING unless you pay a fortune for it. 

There is no free version

**Developer response:** Hello, simply tap the 'X' close icon on the Premium offer screen to dismiss it and use the free features of DocScan. Email ContactUs@DocScan.live for assistance. Thank you! -DocScan

### 1/5 — Cancel

*2025-03-02*

Didn’t want

Did you download DocScan and then decide that you no longer want it after trying it? Thanks! -DocScan

### 1/5 — Why it isn’t free ?

*2024-09-11*

The most useless and expensive app

**Developer response:** Hi Farid, we put a lot of time and effort into making a standalone document scanning app, which we think is more straightforward to use than the document scanning and OCR workflow provided for free in Notes by Apple. We're reluctant to add a bunch of advertising to support development of a full-featured, free version. Stay tuned for for a significant update to DocScan in Q4! -DocScan

### 1/5 — Canceled my subscription one week after adding it and I continue to be billed

*2024-08-23*

Cancelled by subscription less than one week from adding it and I continue to be billed. Can’t cancel this subscription. Horrible customer service

**Developer response:** Hello Debbie, the App Store should have cancelled your subscription if you cancelled it from your iPhone. You can request a refund from your iPhone at support.apple.com/billing. You can also email ContactUs@DocScan.live if you need assistance. -DocScan

### 1/5 — Forced subscription !? Beware

*2024-05-20*

Canceled subscription after two days then still charged and now can’t cancel !!

**Developer response:** Hello, you can cancel and request a refund from your iPhone at support.apple.com/billing. For other support inquiries, please email ContactUs@DocScan.live. Thank you! -DocScan

### 1/5 — Can’t find how to cancel

*2024-04-12*

I signed up for this and immediately realized it wasn’t what I wanted but I don’t see how to cancel.  I believe I was trying the 3 days for free, but now I’m not sure.  Can’t find a way to contact or to cancel.

**Developer response:** Hello Diane, you can cancel from your iPhone at support.apple.com/billing. For other support matters, please email ContactUs@DocScan.live. Thank you! -DocScan
