DocClear turns your iPhone into a professional document scanner. Frame the page, capture it, and get a clean, sharp, perfectly cropped document that is ready to send as a PDF. BUILT FOR REAL PAPER Automatic edge detection finds the sheet and crops the background out, so what you send is the document and nothing else. Perspective correction squares up the page even when you shoot at an angle. The cleanup pass evens out shadows and deepens the blacks, so the text reads dark and crisp instead of gray and washed out, on contracts, IDs, receipts, forms, notes and handwriting alike. WHAT YOU CAN DO Scan one page or many into a single document. Export to PDF or to JPG in one tap. Read the text with OCR in Spanish and English, then copy it or search it. Restore damaged pages with AI: stains, shadows, creases and faded ink. Translate a document between Spanish and English. Convert a PDF to Word (RTF) or to plain TXT. Share by message, mail or AirDrop straight from the app. Switch the whole app between Spanish and English instantly, from Settings. NO ACCOUNT NEEDED DocClear asks for no email, no phone number and no password. Your scans are stored on your device, encrypted at rest, and they are never uploaded anywhere unless you choose to use one of the AI features. DOCCLEAR PRO Scanning, PDF and JPG export, OCR, PDF to Word (RTF) and PDF to TXT are free, with no monthly limit. Documents exported on the free tier carry a small "Scanned with DocClear" mark. DocClear PRO adds: AI restoration of damaged pages. AI document translation between Spanish and English. MegaScan HD, the highest-detail scan mode. No watermark on the document. Priority email support. New PRO features at no extra cost. SUBSCRIPTION DETAILS Title: DocClear PRO. Length and price: 1 month for USD 9.99, or 1 year for USD 39.99. Free trial: both plans include a 7-day free trial, offered only to customers who have not already used an introductory offer in this subscription group. Payment is charged to your Apple Account when you confirm the purchase. The subscription renews automatically at the price in effect unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Your account is charged for the renewal within the 24 hours before the current period ends. You can manage the subscription and turn off auto-renewal in your Apple Account settings after the purchase; deleting the app does not cancel it. Any unused part of a free trial is forfeited when you buy a subscription. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Terms of Use: https://tramistepsus-ship-it.github.io/docclear-legal/terminos.html Privacy Policy: https://tramistepsus-ship-it.github.io/docclear-legal/privacidad.html ABOUT THE AI FEATURES AI restoration and document translation are optional and run on a server. Nothing is sent until you tap the button and accept the notice. Our server acts as a secure relay and keeps no copy of your document. These features are subject to fair-use limits so the service stays available for everyone. AI can make mistakes: the result is not a certified translation or legal advice, and it does not replace a certified translator, an attorney or a notary. Review it before using it for any official filing. Support: salmeronstudiosllc@gmail.com
