Your documents never leave your phone. Point your camera, and paper becomes a clean PDF that is never uploaded to anyone. Don't believe it? Turn on airplane mode and watch Scanner keep working — because nothing is ever sent anywhere. That's the difference from the other scanners: your IDs, contracts, medical forms and receipts stay private, because they physically never leave the device. No watermark on the output. No account to create. No ads. No subscription nag. WHY BARO BEATS THE OTHER SCANNERS • Nothing uploaded — works fully in airplane mode, verify it yourself. • No watermark stamped on your PDF. Ever. • No account, no sign-in, no email harvesting. • No ads, no subscription, no surprise paywall. WHAT IT DOES • Scan anything — live edge detection and perspective correction capture a crisp, straightened page: receipts, contracts, IDs, notes, forms, mail. • Import photos — already have the shot? Turn photos on your phone into the same clean PDF, without opening the camera. • Multi-page PDFs — add as many pages as you need and save them as one clean PDF. Reorder, retake or remove a page with a single tap. • Color, Grayscale or Black & White — pick the look that makes text sharpest and keeps files small. • Local library — every scan lives only on this phone. Open, rename, share or delete. No cloud, no sync. • Lock your documents — put Face ID, Touch ID or your passcode in front of your library. Off by default, and the check happens entirely on this phone: the app only ever gets a yes or a no. • Share anywhere — send your PDF to Mail, Messages, Notes or any app in one tap, straight from the save confirmation. PRIVACY YOU CAN VERIFY Zero analytics. Zero telemetry. Zero third-party SDKs. No network code at all. Turn on airplane mode and scan — everything still works, because nothing is ever sent anywhere. The privacy label says "Data Not Collected," and you can prove it. HONEST ABOUT WHAT IT IS Scanner makes sharp image PDFs. It does not add a searchable OCR text layer yet, and there is no cloud backup or sync — both are intentionally absent, not coming "for a fee." Imported photos get the filters and the PDF, but not the edge detection and perspective correction — those happen at capture time, in the camera. We'd rather promise less and keep every promise. MADE TO BE EASY Every button is large and easy to hit. High-contrast AMOLED dark screen. Big, bold text. No double-taps, no hidden gestures — just Scan and Library. MADE FOR Anyone scanning an ID, a signed contract or a medical form who refuses to upload it. Receipts and expense reports. Student notes and handouts. Anyone who values privacy, simplicity and no watermarks. NO SUBSCRIPTION No subscriptions, no in-app purchases, no ads, no account. That's the whole deal. Part of the Baro family — The tools you reach for first.

MoonShift is the sleep planning app built specifically for shift workers. Whether you are a nurse on 12-hour night shifts, a first responder on rotating schedules, or anyone working non-traditional hours, MoonShift helps you sleep better, recover faster, and stay alert on the job. SMART SLEEP PLANNING Enter your shift schedule and MoonShift instantly generates a personalized sleep plan. The engine accounts for your shift type, commute time, wind-down routine, and wake buffer to calculate the optimal sleep window. Get bedtime and wake-up reminders that actually match your irregular schedule. RECOVERY SCORE Stop guessing how tired you really are. MoonShift calculates a daily Recovery Score (0-100) using five evidence-based factors: sleep duration, timing, consistency, caffeine impact, and circadian disruption. Track your fatigue level and know exactly when to push hard and when to prioritize rest. CAFFEINE CUTOFF Log your coffee, tea, and energy drinks. MoonShift calculates your current caffeine level in real time using a 6-hour half-life model and warns you when to stop consuming caffeine to protect your sleep. Personalized based on your caffeine sensitivity. NAP OPTIMIZER Sleep debt building up? MoonShift recommends the right nap type at the right time: 20-minute power naps for quick alertness, 90-minute cycle naps for full restoration, and pre-shift naps for night workers. Each recommendation includes the science behind it. LIGHT GUIDANCE Light is the most powerful circadian regulator. MoonShift tells you exactly when to seek bright light and when to avoid it, based on your shift. Night workers get reminders to wear sunglasses on the commute home and seek light upon waking. TRANSITION DAY PLANS Switching from day shift to night shift? MoonShift creates a two-phase transition plan with a short recovery nap and a full night sleep, helping your body adjust to the new rhythm faster. HEALTHKIT INTEGRATION Sync your sleep data from Apple Watch via HealthKit. MoonShift reads your sleep analysis to calculate accurate recovery scores and can write planned sleep windows back to Apple Health. Manual sleep logging is also available if you do not have an Apple Watch. ROTATION TEMPLATES Set up recurring rotation patterns in seconds: 3 Day to 3 Night to 3 Off, 2 Day to 2 Night to 2 Off, 4 Day to 3 Off, 7 Night to 7 Off, or create your own custom rotation. WEEK OVERVIEW See your entire week at a glance. View shift types, sleep windows, and recovery scores for each day. Plan ahead and know when your toughest days are coming. SMART NOTIFICATIONS Get wind-down reminders before bedtime, wake-up alerts, caffeine cutoff warnings, and light guidance notifications, all timed to your specific shift schedule. PRIVACY FIRST Your data stays on your device. Health data is accessed through Apple's secure HealthKit framework and never leaves your device. No tracking, no ads, no selling data.
