Terms of Use

App: Argus · Last updated: October 28, 2026

By using Argus you accept the terms below. If you don’t agree, don’t use the app.

1. What the app is

A document scanner for iPhone and iPad: scanning with the camera or from photos and files, page editing tools, text recognition, search, and sharing as PDF, image or text.

2. Accuracy

Text recognition, translation and automatic document names are produced automatically and may contain errors. Check the result before relying on it, especially amounts, dates and document numbers. “On A4 Paper” lays cards out at their actual size, but the final size of a printout also depends on the printer.

3. Your documents

• The documents you scan are yours. You are responsible for having the right to scan, store and share them, especially when they concern other people (e.g. ID cards) or copyrighted material.
• Documents are stored only on your device. The app keeps no backups: keep your own copies of important documents. Deleting the app also deletes the documents.
• A locked folder hides its documents and opens with Face ID, Touch ID or the device passcode; it is not encryption beyond the protection iOS itself provides.
• A PDF’s password is not stored and cannot be recovered. If you forget it, the locked file won’t open.

4. Permitted use

You may use the app for your personal or professional use. You may not:

• reverse engineer, decompile or modify it,
• use it in a way that breaks the law or the rights of others.

5. Intellectual property

The app’s code, design, graphics and texts belong to Christos Dimakis. Text recognition uses Tesseract OCR and its language files (Apache License 2.0) through SwiftyTesseract (MIT License).

6. Purchases

In-app purchases, where offered, are made through the App Store and are governed by Apple’s terms. Refunds are requested from Apple.

7. No warranty

The app is provided “as is”, without warranties of any kind, express or implied. We don’t guarantee that it will work without interruption or errors, or that it will be compatible with every future version of iOS and iPadOS.

8. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect or consequential damages, for loss of documents or data, or for damage caused by errors in text recognition or translation. Nothing in these terms limits the rights consumer protection law gives you, or excludes liability for intent or gross negligence.

9. Governing law

These terms are governed by Greek law. As a consumer you keep the right to bring proceedings in the courts of the place where you live.

10. App Store

Distribution is through the App Store and is also subject to Apple’s Terms. Apple is not responsible for the app and has no obligation to support it.
