FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Subscriptions, purchases, sync and privacy⁠—these answers apply to all of our apps.

Didn’t find your answer?

Write to us
How do I manage or cancel a subscription?

Subscriptions and in-⁠app purchases are handled entirely by the store you bought them from⁠—we can’t see or change them ourselves.

On iPhone or iPad (App Store):

  1. Open Settings and tap your name.
  2. Tap Subscriptions.
  3. Choose the subscription and tap Cancel Subscription.

To stop it from renewing, cancel at least 24 hours before the current period ends. Apple explains every option, including on Mac: Cancel a subscription from Apple (opens in a new tab).

How do I request a refund?

Refunds are handled only by the store you bought from. We have no access to payments and can’t issue refunds ourselves.

App Store: sign in at reportaproblem.apple.com (opens in a new tab) with your Apple Account, choose to request a refund and select the purchase in question.

If something in the app isn’t working as expected, please still write to us⁠—we’ll take a look.

How do I restore my purchases?

Your purchases belong to the account you bought them with in the store, not to a particular device. After reinstalling, or on a new device:

On iPhone, iPad or Mac (App Store):

  1. Sign in to the App Store with the same Apple Account you used to buy.
  2. Open the app and go to its Premium or Pro section.
  3. Choose “Restore Purchases” (“Käufe wiederherstellen” in apps shown in German).

If your purchase still doesn’t show up, send us the app’s name and the approximate purchase date⁠—but please never send passwords or payment details.

iCloud sync isn’t working⁠—what can I do?

On Apple devices, sync runs through iCloud. Please check on every device involved:

  • You’re signed in with the same Apple Account everywhere.
  • iCloud is turned on for the app: Settings → [your name] → iCloud, then the app’s switch in the list of apps using iCloud (depending on the system version, under “See All” or “Show All”).
  • Sync is switched on inside the app, if the app offers it.
  • Your iCloud storage isn’t full and the device is online.

Then open the app on both devices and give it a moment. If it still doesn’t work, email us your device models and system versions.

How do I delete my data?

Our apps don’t use accounts. Your data therefore lives only on your device⁠—and, if you use sync, in your private iCloud storage. We don’t hold a copy.

  • On your device: delete the app. This also removes the data it stored locally.
  • In iCloud: open Settings → [your name] → iCloud → Manage Account Storage, choose the app and delete its data.

You’ll find all the details on our “Delete account and data” page and on each app’s support page. For privacy questions, write to info@aploapps.com.

Where can I find privacy information?

In short: no ads, no tracking and no third-⁠party analytics. We don’t use your data for advertising and we don’t sell it.

What each app stores and which platform services it uses (such as iCloud) is explained in our privacy policy. If you have questions about it, write to info@aploapps.com.

Do the apps work offline?

At their core, yes: our apps store your data locally on your device. The Einbürgerungstest app even works fully offline.

You only need a connection for specific features, such as iCloud sync, purchases and restoring them, or when US Citizenship Preparation loads the current senators and governor for your state.
