Restore the lifetime unlock
- Open PatternMark.
- Open Settings.
- Tap Restore purchases.
- Confirm that the device is signed into the same Apple or Google account used for the original purchase.
- Make sure the device has an internet connection while restoring.
PatternMark's lifetime unlock is a one-time purchase, not a subscription. Deleting and reinstalling the app does not require buying it again when you restore using the same store account. Cross-platform transfer between Apple and Google accounts is not guaranteed.
Free version and lifetime unlock
The free version includes:
- A bundled demonstration pattern
- Full grid calibration
- Symbol highlighting
- Stitch marking
- Progress tracking
- Undo and redo
The lifetime unlock adds personal PDF import, unlimited projects and chart pages, and project backup and restoration.
PDF import help
- Use a standard, non-password-protected PDF with raster or vector chart pages.
- Select only the pages that contain the chart when prompted.
- Calibrate each chart page before tracking begins.
- If an import fails, try reopening the PDF or converting it to a supported format.
Calibration and matching tips
- Crop to the chart and tap two grid intersections before entering the cell count.
- Fine-tune the overlay if highlights drift from the printed cells.
- Adjust match sensitivity to find fewer or more likely matches.
- Use manual include and exclude corrections when matching is imperfect.
Projects and backups
Project data is stored locally. Use Settings to export a project backup or restore one from a file. Deleting the app or losing the device may remove project data; PatternMark does not currently provide cloud backups.
Purchase and refund help
Apple and Google process payments directly. Sleepycat Software cannot view complete payment-card details. For a refund or help with a store charge, use the purchase-history or support tools provided by Apple App Store or Google Play.
