The app includes 15 free scans without a subscription. We've also improved the onboarding and subscription flow in recent updates to make everything clearer. We appreciate your suggestion! ### 1/5 — Remove Premium! *2026-06-07* Too annoying to use when costs are ridiculous and you don’t even get ANYTHING for free.

And I know every app does that (the answer is no ) just delete if already downloaded **Developer response:** Thank you for your review. We currently provide 15 free scans so users can try the app and evaluate the scanning quality before purchasing.
