Quick answers for importing archives, improving recognition, restoring a purchase, and protecting private documents.

Start here

1

Choose a clear source

Use a sharp, evenly lit photo or PDF. Crop unrelated borders and keep the page as straight as possible.

2

Recognize on device

Open a page and choose Recognize. Version 1.0 performs standard recognition on your iPhone.

3

Proofread uncertain text

Compare the source and output together. Review highlighted words and apply glossary corrections where helpful.

Frequently asked questions

How many pages can I try for free?

OldScript includes recognition for three pages. The one-time Unlimited Recognition purchase removes the page limit; it is not a subscription.

How do I restore Unlimited Recognition?

Open OldScript → Settings → Unlimited recognition, then choose Restore Purchases. Use the same Apple Account that made the original purchase.

Why is a handwritten word incorrect?

Historic handwriting varies widely. Improve lighting and crop, then use the side-by-side proofreader. For repeated names or places, add a correction and apply it through the document.

Does OldScript upload my documents?

Standard recognition in version 1.0 runs on your iPhone. Imported images, recognized text, edits, and glossaries remain local unless you independently export or share them.

How do I delete my data?

Delete a page or document inside the app. Deleting OldScript removes its locally stored document content from that iPhone. App Store transaction records are handled separately by Apple and RevenueCat.

A purchase is missing or charged incorrectly. What should I do?

Try Restore Purchases first. For billing, refund, or charge issues, use Apple’s Report a Problem, because Apple processes the payment.

Before requesting help

  1. Confirm OldScript is updated to the latest App Store version.
  2. Restart the app and retry with one clear test page.
  3. For purchase problems, try Restore Purchases and note the exact message shown.
  4. Never send an unredacted private letter, identity document, or full purchase receipt unless a secure method is explicitly arranged.
Version 1.0 support note: optional cloud enhancement is not available in this release. Standard recognition is performed on device.
