How to assert your rights
- Keep proof of purchase, cancellation confirmations and correspondence.
- If you believe you have a statutory right under the Consumer Protection Act, include evidence when contacting Camscanner or dispute the charge with your payment provider.

Documentation checklist
Before you cancel
- Locate purchase receipt or App Store / Google Play order ID.
- Note the subscription renewal date and payment method used.
- Export or backup any scans you need to keep.
After you cancel
- Save cancellation confirmation or support email correspondence.
- Check your bank or card statements for any unexpected post‑cancellation charges.
- If charged in error, file a refund request with the app store or your payment provider and attach evidence.
Common mistakes
Canceling in the wrong place
Example: Subscribing on iPhone but trying to cancel in the app on Android. Always cancel through the store where you purchased (App Store, Play Store) or via direct support for web purchases.
Not keeping proof
Example: Deleting the app without saving cancellation confirmation. This can make refunds or disputes harder, so always keep emails, screenshots or order IDs.

For direct subscriptions, email support and keep all evidence; escalate via your bank if you believe charges are incorrect.
After cancelling
Verify billing and access
- Check that auto‑renew is turned off in your store account and that no further charges are scheduled.
- Confirm you still have access until the end of the paid period and export needed files.
