Medical bills. Insurance EOBs. Utility statements. They're confusing by design — dense with codes, adjustments, and line items that don't add up. Barely Legible changes that. Take a photo or import any bill and get a plain-English breakdown in seconds. Every charge explained. Potential errors and overcharges flagged. Questions to ask before you pay. —————————————————— WHAT BARELY LEGIBLE DOES ◆ Explains every line item in plain language — no medical or insurance jargon ◆ Verifies that totals, adjustments, and balances add up correctly ◆ Flags duplicate charges, overcharges, and billing errors worth disputing — including potential unbundling, No Surprises Act violations, and inflated medication charges on medical bills ◆ Writes a ready-to-send dispute letter for any flagged charge — clearly stating the issue and what you're asking the provider to correct ◆ Exports it as a print-ready PDF, and walks you through actually sending it — certified mail, what to keep, and when to follow up ◆ Gives you a call script if you'd rather phone — your account number and the specific charge, in plain language you can read aloud to the billing department ◆ Suggests questions to ask the company, provider, or insurer before paying ◆ Adds bill due dates directly to your calendar so nothing slips through ◆ Delivers a monthly digest summarizing every bill you've scanned ◆ Stores your scan history so you can reference past bills anytime —————————————————— WORKS WITH ANY BILL Not just medical. Barely Legible analyzes hospital itemized statements, Explanations of Benefits (EOB), utility bills, phone bills, mortgage statements, insurance documents, and more — purpose-built for bills, not a general-purpose AI. —————————————————— NO ACCOUNT NEEDED Open the app and scan. No email, no password, no sign-up. Your bills are saved on this device, and you can add your Apple ID later without losing any of them — including anything you've bought. An account is only needed for dispute letters, and for keeping your bills if you switch devices. —————————————————— AVAILABLE IN SPANISH Set your device to Spanish and the whole explanation follows — the summary, every flagged charge, and the questions to ask. —————————————————— WORKS WITH SIRI AND SHORTCUTS Say "Scan with Barely Legible" to open the scanner instantly — no tapping required. Add it to your own Shortcuts automations to fit scanning into any workflow. —————————————————— BUILT FOR PRIVACY Your bill photos are never stored. Images sent for analysis are immediately discarded — never retained on our servers, never used to train AI models. Only the text results from your scan are stored securely and never sold or shared. —————————————————— FREE TO TRY 3 free scans every month — no account required. New users also get one dispute letter to try the feature. Upgrade to Pro for unlimited scans and dispute letters, or purchase individual scan credits if you only need occasional help with scanning.

Exactly What I Needed

One of those apps that makes you wonder why nobody built it sooner. I uploaded a confusing hospital bill and it broke everything down into plain English. It even pointed out a few things worth double-checking before paying. Definitely gives me more confidence when dealing with bills.

Thank you for the review! That moment of "wait, should I actually be paying all of this?" is exactly what we're going for. Happy it helped before you paid.

I found this app while trying to get a handle on my bills, and it has made a huge difference. It’s easy to see what I’m actually being billed for and stay organized. Definitely worth it!

Used this to decipher a utility bill. We are solar house and the bills are confusing and this made it easier to read/understand.

Developer Response
So glad it helped! Utility bills—especially with solar credits and net metering—can be genuinely hard to parse. Thanks for the kind words and for sharing how you're using it!

No account needed Scan a bill and read the plain-English explanation without signing in. No email, no password, nothing to set up. Nothing is lost if you sign in later Add your Apple ID whenever you're ready and everything comes with you — your saved bills, your remaining free scans, and any credits you've bought. Buying works without an account too Scan credits and Pro both work before you sign in, and we'll offer to protect them afterwards. Plus bug fixes and reliability improvements.
