How do I restore Pro on a new phone?

Open the app’s Settings or Pro screen and tap Restore Purchases. Make sure you’re signed in with the same Apple Account you used to buy it.

How do I get a refund?

All purchases go through Apple, so refunds do too. Request one at reportaproblem.apple.com. I can’t issue refunds directly.

On your iPhone, open Settings, tap your name, then Subscriptions. Cancel at least 24 hours before it renews.

Where is my data stored?

On your iPhone. Some apps offer optional iCloud sync or backup to your own iCloud account, and a few connect to services you choose (like Google Drive). Each app’s details are below and in the privacy policy.

Can I suggest a feature?

Yes, please do. Email me with the app name and what you’d like it to do. I read every message.
