Privacy policy
Redraft for iPhone. Updated November 12, 2026.
Redraft converts your documents on your iPhone. They are never uploaded to us or to anyone else. There’s no account and no advertising. If you agree, the app shares usage statistics and crash reports, which hold technical information and never your documents, their names or their text.
Your documents
- When you choose a PDF, or send one to Redraft from another app, Redraft copies it into its own storage on your iPhone and converts it there. Pages that are scans are read with iOS’s text recognition, also on your iPhone.
- Redraft keeps the Word document it made, with its copy of the original PDF, so you can open them again from Recent. They stay until you delete them in Redraft or delete the app.
- A document leaves Redraft only when you send it somewhere yourself, with Share or Save to Files.
- If a PDF is protected with a password, Redraft uses the password you type to open it. It doesn’t keep the password or send it anywhere.
- If you back up your iPhone, the backup may include Redraft’s documents, as it does with other apps’ files. A backup goes to your own iCloud account or your own computer, not to us.
No purchases
Redraft is free. It has no in-app purchases and no subscription, so it never asks for a payment and never receives payment details.
Usage statistics
The first time you open Redraft, it asks whether you want to share usage statistics and crash reports: choose Share Statistics or Not Now. The app works fully either way. You can change your answer at any time with the Share Usage Statistics switch in About Redraft.
If you share them, the app sends PostHog, an analytics service, a record each time the app opens or closes, is installed or updated, and each time one of its screens shows: home, converting, document or about. It also sends a record of:
- each conversion that finishes: how many pages, tables and scanned pages the document had, and how many seconds it took;
- each conversion that fails: one word for the kind of problem;
- each conversion you cancel;
- each time you tap Share on a document, and each document you save to Files;
- the documents you delete: how many;
- a change that couldn’t be saved on your iPhone: the error’s code.
Each record includes the app’s version and language, your iPhone’s model, iOS version, screen size, language and time zone, whether it’s on Wi-Fi or cellular, and a random ID for this copy of the app. Records never include your documents, their names or their text, a password, or anything else you type. We don’t attach your name, email address or Apple Account to them. PostHog builds no profile of you, doesn’t work out a location from your IP address, and stores the records in the European Union.
Before you choose to share, nothing is sent. If you turn the switch off, the app records nothing more, though what it recorded just before may still be sent. If you turn it back on, the app starts over with a new random ID.
Crash reports
The same question and switch cover crash reports. If you share them, then when the app crashes, freezes or is closed by iOS while you’re using it, or runs into an error it handles, the app sends Sentry, an error reporting service, a report. A report holds where in the app’s code the problem happened, the app’s and iOS’s versions, your iPhone’s model and a random ID. Sentry also counts how many uses of the app end in a crash.
Reports don’t include screenshots, your documents, their names or their text. We don’t attach your name, email address or Apple Account to them. Sentry stores them in the European Union.
What we do with them
We use the statistics only to see how the app is used and what to improve, and the crash reports only to find and fix problems. We don’t sell them, we don’t show advertising, and we don’t follow you across other companies’ apps or websites.
Statistics and reports carry a random ID rather than an account, so an email address alone doesn’t let us find a particular record. Turning sharing off stops future collection; it doesn’t erase what was already received.
Feedback and support
If you write to us, the email goes through your own mail app. We use your address and what you write only to answer you. Send Feedback, in About Redraft, starts an email with the app’s and iOS’s versions in it, which you can see and change before you send it.
Children
Redraft doesn’t ask for an age, a name or an account. If you believe a child has sent us personal information through support, write to us and we’ll remove it.
