QuickScan is designed with your privacy in mind. We collect minimal data and never sell your information.
Information We Don't Collect
QuickScan does not collect, store, or transmit any personal information to If Then Dev servers. We don't track your usage, build profiles, or share data with advertisers.
Camera Access
QuickScan uses your device's camera solely to scan book barcodes. Camera access is requested only when you use the scanning feature. No images or video are stored, transmitted, or recorded. The camera is used exclusively for real-time barcode detection on your device.
Book Lookups
When you scan or enter a book's ISBN, QuickScan queries third-party book information services to retrieve the book's title, author, cover image, and reading levels (such as ATOS, Lexile, Guided Reading Level, and DRA). These queries include:
- The book's ISBN number
- The book's title and author (for reading level lookups)
No personal information, device identifiers, or user data is sent with these requests. The third-party services receive only the book information necessary to return reading level data.
Local Data Storage
Your scan history is stored locally on your device. This includes:
- Book titles, authors, and ISBNs you've scanned
- Reading levels retrieved for each book
- Cover images (cached for display)
- Date and time of each scan
This data remains on your device and under your control. You can delete individual books or your entire scan history at any time from within the app.
iCloud Sync
If you have iCloud enabled, your scan history may sync across your Apple devices using your personal iCloud account. This sync uses Apple's CloudKit service and is governed by Apple's privacy policy. Your data is stored in your private iCloud container and is not accessible to If Then Dev.
Home Screen Widgets
QuickScan's Home Screen widgets display your recently scanned books. This data is shared between the main app and widget extension using a secure App Group container on your device. Widget data never leaves your device except through iCloud sync (if enabled).
Spotlight Search
QuickScan indexes your scanned books for iOS Spotlight search, allowing you to quickly find books from your Home Screen. This index is stored locally on your device and is managed by iOS.
Subscriptions
QuickScan offers optional in-app subscriptions managed through the App Store. We use RevenueCat to manage subscription status. RevenueCat may collect anonymous purchase data and device identifiers to facilitate subscription management. See RevenueCat's privacy policy for details. Your payment information is handled entirely by Apple and is never shared with If Then Dev.
Data Export
You can export your scan history as CSV or PDF files using the built-in export feature. Exported data is shared only through methods you explicitly choose (email, AirDrop, Files, etc.).
Children's Privacy
QuickScan is designed for use by teachers and parents to help children find appropriately leveled books. The app does not collect any personal information from users of any age. Children should use QuickScan under adult supervision.

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Any changes will be reflected on this page with an updated revision date.
