what is reverse file search?
reverse file search allows you to find similar files, images or sources by uploading an image or file instead of typing a text query.
how does the license work?
when you purchase a reverscan license, you can use it indefinitely — no renewals, no recurring fees. one license works on one device at a time. you can move it freely between devices; activating on a new device automatically deactivates the previous one. each license includes one year of free app updates.
what's the refund policy?
14-day money-back guarantee, no questions asked. email reverscan@gmail.com and you'll get a full refund.
will my access expire?
no. your one-time purchase gives you perpetual access to the version you bought, plus one year of free app updates from your purchase date.
why just 1 year of updates?
reverscan is built and maintained by a solo developer (that's me, arun). i'd love to offer lifetime updates, but the honest truth is this project is still growing, and some features down the road may require ongoing server or infrastructure costs. if that happens, i don't want to be locked into a promise i can't sustainably keep. one year feels fair: you get a stable, fully-functional app, and i get the flexibility to build something that lasts. and just to be clear, whatever version you buy is yours to keep, forever. no one's taking that away. need an extension? just write to me at reverscan@gmail.com and i'll be happy to look into it for you.
100% local.
100% private.
your files never leave your device.
everything stays private, fast, and offline.

i built reverscan because i couldn't find my files
while running a design studio, my work involves sending files to clients and it's fairly normal for them to come back months or sometimes years later asking for edits.
by that time, they would have changed the filename, or sometimes they would just send a screenshot of the file they wanted edited.
this would mean searching through my emails, going through multiple hard-drives to find those files. and that would make locating those files next to impossible.
there have been times when i've spent days looking for files or genuinely gotten pissed off that they renamed my disciplined naming + finding system.
so i decided to make reverscan to fix this problem. i no longer need to care about file names or a disciplined storage hierarchy (though you should probably still do that for your own sanity).
i hope this brings you some peace of mind.
