JustScan is a document scanner for Android made by MLL Easy. Everything it does with your documents happens on your phone. This policy describes JustScan 1.0.0: what the app uses, what it stores, and how purchases work.

Summary

JustScan does not collect, sell or share your personal information. Your photos, scanned pages, PDFs and recognized text stay on your phone unless you save or share them yourself.

The app does not have the Internet permission, so it cannot send anything from your phone to us, to Google or to anyone else. It has no account, no sign-in, no ads, no analytics and no crash reporting.

Camera

The camera is used only to scan documents. While the camera screen is open, the preview is analyzed on your phone to find the page edges; a photo is kept only when you or auto capture take one. When you import photos, JustScan reads only the images you pick in the Android system file picker.

Processing on your phone

Page detection, perspective correction, shadow removal and text recognition (OCR) all run on your phone. The shadow-removal model and the text-recognition models are built into the app.

From the recognized text, JustScan suggests a document name (for example "Receipt – Nov 2") and builds the text index used by search. This also happens only on your phone.

Libraries in the app

JustScan includes these third-party components. None of them can send data, because the app has no Internet permission.

  • Google ML Kit text recognition: reads text from your scans on the device. ML Kit contains a Google component for usage logging; without the Internet permission it cannot send anything.
  • Google Play Billing Library: talks to the Google Play Store app on your phone to show the price, make the purchase and check whether you own it. It also bundles a Google Play services location library, but JustScan does not have any location permission and never accesses your location.
  • LiteRT (TensorFlow Lite) and OpenCV: run the shadow-removal model and image processing.
  • AndroidX, CameraX and Jetpack Compose: the camera, screens and background tasks of the app.

Purchases through Google Play

Your first 20 documents are free. After that, you can scan 1 free document per day. A one-time lifetime unlock of US$4.99 (Google Play shows the price in your local currency) removes these limits and is sold through Google Play's billing system. Google processes the payment under its own terms and privacy policy. MLL Easy and the app never receive your card or other payment details.

To check whether you own the unlock, the app asks the Google Play Store app on your phone. The purchase information it receives (such as product, order number and purchase state) is used only on your phone, and the app keeps only an "unlocked" setting. Like every Google Play developer, MLL Easy can see order information for its sales (such as order number, date, country and amount) in the Google Play Console and uses it only for payments, refunds and support.

What is stored on your phone

JustScan stores everything in its private app storage on your phone:

  • your documents: the original photos, the processed pages, thumbnails, document names and dates
  • recognized text, your text corrections, and the search text for each document
  • settings: auto capture on or off, sort order, last export format and text-recognition language
  • free-tier counters, kept only on your phone and never uploaded: which documents counted toward the first 20 free documents, the date of the last daily free scan and which document used it, and whether the lifetime unlock is active
  • temporary copies made for saving or sharing, which are removed after 24 hours

Backup

JustScan turns off Android cloud backup, and your documents are kept in a folder that Android never backs up or transfers to a new phone. To keep a document, save it as a PDF or image, or share it.

Deleting your data

Delete a page or a whole document in the app to remove its images and recognized text. Uninstalling JustScan, or clearing its storage in Android settings, removes all documents and settings. Files you saved or shared outside the app are not affected. Your purchase stays in your Google Play account; refunds are handled through Google Play.

Saving and sharing

When you save, you choose the location with the Android file picker. When you share, the Android share sheet lets you choose the receiving app, and that app handles its copy under its own practices.

Permissions

JustScan requests only the camera permission. Other entries in the app's permission list are added by the libraries above:

  • Camera: to scan documents.
  • Google Play billing: to buy and restore the lifetime unlock through the Google Play Store app.
  • Network state, keep awake and run at startup: added by Google and AndroidX libraries for their internal task scheduling. Without the Internet permission they cannot transmit data.
  • JustScan does not request the Internet, location, contacts, microphone or storage permissions.

Children

JustScan is not directed at children and collects no data from anyone.
