REVIEW THE EVIDENCE Monthly candidates need three similar payments with the same merchant and currency; yearly candidates need two. Insufficient history or irregular payments may produce no candidates. Annual candidate costs are estimates based on the detected interval, not recorded annual spending. Registered subscriptions are never changed automatically: confirm the candidates you choose before applying them. Password-protected PDFs are not supported. Images are read as individual receipts; multi-row statement images may not be recognized correctly. YOUR DATA Receipt and statement analysis happens on your device. Keeping receipt images is optional. Records stay on your device and can sync to your own iCloud if you enable it. Currencies are totaled separately; amounts are not converted. Apple and RevenueCat process purchases and restoration. Expense details and receipt images are not sent to RevenueCat. ALREADY PURCHASED? Use Restore Purchases in Settings. Customers who bought the earlier paid app receive Pro at no additional charge after App Store verification.
