These are the questions people ask before they trust an app with a photo of their hand. We build one, so we can answer them from the inside. We explain what makes a palm photo readable, what to check before you install, how pricing in this category works and where your photo goes after you upload it.

  • How to photograph your palm

    What actually makes a palm photo readable, taken from the checks the app runs. Brightness, sharpness and how much of the frame your hand fills all matter. Orientation does not.

  • What to check before you install a palm reading app

    Not a ranking. Five checks you can run from the store page and free tier, including detection before payment, one-time pricing, correctable lines and clear photo terms.

  • How free palm reading apps actually charge

    What Free means on a palm reading app listing, explained through three models. Learn how advertising, one-time purchases and subscriptions differ before you install.

  • What happens to your palm photo

    What to verify before handing a palm reading app a photo of your hand. Check the deletion window, biometric-use policy, requested permissions and the billing trap behind most real complaints.
