Last updated: November 11, 2026
PDF Works: Scan & Convert offers optional Premium features through auto-renewable subscriptions. Purchases and billing are handled through Apple's In-App Purchase system. We use RevenueCat to help manage subscription status and Premium access. This page explains the subscription options, reference prices, free trials, cancellation procedures, renewals, purchase restoration and refunds. The prices displayed below are U.S. reference prices in USD. Actual prices may differ by country or region.

01 Available Subscription Plans

PDF Works offers three subscription durations: Weekly, Monthly and Yearly. All three plans are intended to provide access to the same Premium features while active.

🇺🇸 United States reference pricing · USD
Monthly $19.99 USD / month Flexible monthly billing
Yearly $59.99 USD / year Save about 75%**
**Compared with 12 months at the U.S. monthly reference price.
$ Important: Prices vary by country

The prices shown above are reference prices for the United States in U.S. dollars. They are not guaranteed prices for every country or region. Subscription prices may vary depending on your App Store country or region, local currency, applicable taxes, Apple pricing adjustments, and any regional or promotional offers. For example, a subscription offered in Spain may have a different price in euros than the U.S. reference price shown here. The actual price, currency, billing period and any applicable free trial will be displayed by Apple before you confirm your purchase.

Premium Features

Depending on the supported features available in your app version, PDF Works Premium may include:

  • Unlimited document scanning.
  • OCR text recognition for supported languages.
  • PDF conversion to supported formats, including Word, Excel, PowerPoint, JPG or other available formats.
  • PDF signatures and form filling.
  • PDF merging, splitting and compression.
  • Document editing and organization.
  • Password protection, where supported.
  • Watermark-free document output, where available.

Feature availability may vary depending on the app version, file format, device capabilities and subscription configuration.

The Weekly plan may include a 3-day free trial for eligible users. The standard Monthly and Yearly plans listed here do not advertise a free trial. Any actual introductory offer will be shown on the Apple purchase screen.


02 Free Trials

PDF Works may offer a 3-day free trial with the Weekly subscription to eligible customers.

If a free trial is available to you, its duration and renewal price will be shown before you confirm the purchase.

  • You receive the applicable Premium access during the trial period.
  • You are not charged the subscription price during a valid free-trial period.
  • If the trial is not canceled before its renewal deadline, it automatically converts to the applicable paid plan.
  • The subscription renews at the price shown by Apple during the purchase process, subject to applicable subscription terms.
  • Free-trial eligibility and availability are determined by Apple's subscription system and the offers configured for your App Store region.

Free-trial cancellation reminder: Apple recommends canceling at least 24 hours before the trial ends if you do not want it to renew as a paid subscription.

Apple's introductory-offer eligibility generally permits one redeemed introductory offer per subscription group. Previous subscriptions or trials may affect eligibility.

Free-trial availability is not guaranteed for every Apple Account or country.


03 Billing and Automatic Renewal

PDF Works subscriptions are auto-renewable and are billed through Apple's In-App Purchase system.

  • Payment is charged through your Apple Account at the time of purchase, or after an applicable free trial.
  • The Weekly plan renews according to its weekly billing period.
  • The Monthly plan renews according to its monthly billing period.
  • The Yearly plan renews according to its yearly billing period.
  • A subscription continues renewing until canceled or otherwise ended under Apple's rules.
  • Your applicable renewal price is determined by the subscription terms, your App Store region and Apple's billing system.
  • Price increases may be subject to advance notice or explicit consent, depending on Apple's policies and applicable law.
$ Regional billing and currencies

The U.S. reference prices shown on this page are provided for general information only. If your Apple Account uses another App Store country or region, Apple may charge a different local price.

When you cancel a paid subscription, you generally retain Premium access until the current paid period ends.

Access during or following cancellation of a free trial may differ from access during a paid subscription. Check the applicable Apple subscription conditions.

Deleting your PDF Works account or uninstalling the app does not automatically cancel your Apple subscription. Cancel the subscription separately through Apple to prevent future renewals.

Refund requests for these App Store purchases are generally submitted through Apple's refund request system.

  1. Visit reportaproblem.apple.com .
  2. Sign in with the Apple Account used for the purchase.
  3. Choose the option to request a refund.
  4. Select the applicable PDF Works purchase or subscription charge.

Request a Refund from Apple

Refund eligibility is determined according to Apple's applicable policies and consumer protection laws.

Consumers in certain jurisdictions, including the European Union, may have additional statutory rights. These rights can vary according to the transaction and applicable law.

Nothing on this page limits rights that cannot legally be excluded.


06 Changing Subscription Plans

Depending on availability, you may be able to switch between Weekly, Monthly and Yearly subscriptions.

Plan changes are handled through Apple's subscription system and depend on the subscriptions configured in the same subscription group.

  • Upgrades: Some upgrades may take effect immediately, with billing adjustments handled by Apple.
  • Downgrades: Some changes to a lower subscription level may take effect at the next renewal.
  • Changes between plans: The effective date, any billing adjustment, and eligibility depend on Apple's rules and the configured subscription levels.
  • Regional prices: The cost of the new plan may differ by country and currency.

Review the final terms displayed by Apple before confirming a subscription change.


07 Restore Purchases

PDF Works provides a Restore Purchases function to recover eligible subscription access associated with a previous Apple purchase.

This can be useful if you reinstall the app, change your iPhone, or need to restore an existing subscription.

  1. Open PDF Works.
  2. Find Restore Purchases in the subscription screen or the relevant Settings area.
  3. Tap the option to request restoration.
  4. Allow the App to check eligible purchase records.
  5. If an applicable active entitlement is confirmed, Premium access can be restored.

Restoring purchases generally requires access to the Apple Account associated with the original purchase.

If you experience difficulties restoring access, contact: support@pdf-scan-app.com .


08 What Happens When You Unsubscribe

When your subscription is canceled and subsequently expires:

  • Premium access generally continues until the end of the applicable paid subscription period.
  • After expiration, Premium features may become unavailable unless you subscribe again.
  • You may continue to use the features available in the free version of PDF Works.
  • Canceling a subscription does not automatically delete documents stored locally on your device.
  • Existing documents remain subject to the app's available storage and file-management functions.
  • You may subscribe again later, subject to availability and the pricing applicable at that time.

Subscription cancellation, account deletion and local document deletion are separate actions.


09 Family Sharing

Apple's Family Sharing functionality may be available for certain auto-renewable subscriptions if the developer has enabled that option for the specific product.

Family Sharing is not automatically guaranteed for every PDF Works subscription.

If Family Sharing is enabled for a qualifying subscription, eligible family members may be able to access subscription benefits under Apple's sharing conditions.

Family Sharing eligibility and management are determined by Apple's systems, your Apple Account settings, and the configuration of the subscription in App Store Connect.

Please check your Apple subscription information to determine whether sharing is available for your plan.
