Help with Quire: PDF AI Scan, Edit, Sign. Last updated October 2026.

What does Quire do?

• Scan: scan with the camera, with automatic edge detection, automatic or manual capture and a flash. Modes for documents, ID cards (front and back on one page), books (Pro) and business cards (Pro). Scans can have many pages; you can add pages later and retake a page.
• Improve: adjust corners, crop, rotate, choose a filter (auto, original, grey, black and white, whiteboard), change contrast, remove shadows and whiten the background. With Pro: erase fingers and marks, and flatten curved book pages.
• Import: from Photos and from Files, as PDFs or images, and from other apps with "Save to Quire" in the share sheet. On Mac: drag and drop, Import, and scanning with your iPhone through Continuity Camera. The Mac has no camera scanning of its own.
• Text: text recognition on the device, giving a searchable PDF, in the languages your device supports. You can copy recognised text. QR codes and barcodes found on a page are listed. Search covers titles, and with Pro the text inside pages.
• Edit: draw, highlight, add text and black out. Blacking out also removes the words from the PDF's text. Marks stay editable later. Apple Pencil works.
• Sign and fill: add a signature, text, a date or a checkmark, and with Pro initials and several saved signatures.
• Organise: folders; rename scans; reorder, delete and duplicate pages; split a scan; Recently Deleted. With Pro: merge scans, extract pages, automatic naming and filing by type, the Smart Library, and business cards saved to Contacts.
• Export and share: PDF or JPEG in three quality levels, the share sheet, and printing. With Pro: Word and Excel files, password-protected PDFs, and receipts and invoices as a CSV.
• Automation (Pro): workflows that rename, move to a folder, save to any Files location such as iCloud Drive, Google Drive or Dropbox, and email, run by hand or after every scan.
• Siri and Shortcuts: "Scan Document", and with Pro "Run Workflow on Latest Scan".
• Settings: Spotlight indexing, app lock with Face ID, Touch ID or Optic ID (Pro), iCloud sync (Pro), and export and import of settings.

If something is not on this list, Quire does not do it today.

What does Quire not do?

• It does not send faxes.
• It cannot change text that is already in a PDF. You can add text, highlight and black out.
• It cannot ask other people to sign a document.
• It cannot import a password-protected PDF.
• It is not a live QR code scanner; it reads codes on pages you have scanned.
• There is no Android, Windows or web version.
• Pro cannot be shared through Family Sharing. Each person needs their own Pro.

What does Quire cost?

Quire is free to download, and the free plan has no watermark and no limit on scans or pages. Pro is optional and comes three ways:

• Yearly: $13.99 a year, with a 1-week free trial.
• Monthly: $3.49 a month.
• Lifetime: $34.99, paid once.

These are US prices as of October 2026. The App Store shows the price in your currency. One Pro purchase covers iPhone, iPad and Mac.

Can my family use my Pro?

No. Quire Pro, monthly, yearly or lifetime, does not support Family Sharing. Each person who wants Pro needs their own purchase. The free plan has no limit on scans or pages.

What is free and what needs Pro?

Free: unlimited scanning, saving and sharing with no watermark; drawing, highlighting, adding text and blacking out; text recognition on documents of up to 5 pages; signing 3 documents a month with one saved signature.

Pro adds: text recognition on documents of any length, search inside every scan, automatic naming and filing, the Smart Library, workflows, receipts to CSV, export to Word and Excel, unlimited signing with several signatures, merging and extracting pages, password-protected PDFs, book mode and cleanup, business cards to Contacts, app lock, and iCloud sync.

How do I restore my purchase?

On iPhone and iPad: open Settings in Quire, then Billing, then Restore purchases.

On Mac: open Quire > Settings, then Billing, then Restore purchases.

The same button is at the bottom of the Pro screen. Restoring uses the Apple Account you bought with.

How do I cancel my subscription?

In Quire, open Settings, then Billing, then Manage subscription. This opens Apple's subscription screen, where you can change plan or cancel. Pro stays active until the end of the period you paid for.

You can also cancel in the Settings app: tap your name, then Subscriptions.

Will I be charged when the free trial ends?

Yes, unless you cancel before it ends. The trial is 1 week and applies to the yearly plan. Quire reminds you 2 days before the trial converts.

How do I get a refund?

In Quire, open Settings, then Billing, then Request a refund. Refunds are handled by Apple, and Apple decides. You can also go to reportaproblem.apple.com.

Which devices does it work on?

iPhone and iPad with iOS 26 or later, and Mac with macOS 26 or later.

Are my documents uploaded anywhere?

No. Scanning, text recognition and naming all happen on your device. Quire has no account and no servers of ours. If you turn on iCloud sync, which is a Pro feature, your scans sync through your own iCloud account. Signatures are kept in your device's keychain and are never synced.

How do I delete my scans?

Delete a scan from the library. Deleted scans are kept for 30 days in Settings > Storage > Recently deleted. To remove them for good, open that screen and choose Delete all, then Delete permanently.

Can I export my data?

Yes. Documents export as PDF or JPEG, and with Pro as Word, Excel or CSV. Settings > Backup > Export settings and workflows saves your settings; it does not include documents or signatures.

Which languages are supported?

English, German, Dutch, French, Spanish and Brazilian Portuguese.

How do I contact support?

In Quire, open Settings, then Help, then Contact support. On Mac, choose Help > Quire Support. Or use the contact page at keenappsgroup.com/contact.
