What you get
Perspective correction
Photos taken at an angle are straightened into a flat, rectangular page, like a flatbed scan.
Clean-up filters
Magic color removes shadows and uneven lighting, Document gives crisp black text, and Black & white works like a fax. Fine-tune brightness, contrast and saturation.
Multi-page PDFs
Add as many pages as you need, reorder them, and download one PDF in A4, US Letter or the size of your images.
Private by design
Photos are processed on your device. Nothing is uploaded, and there is no account and no tracking.

Tips for the best scan
- Use even light and avoid shadows falling across the page.
- Put a white page on a dark surface (or a dark page on a light one) so the edges stand out.
- Hold the camera parallel to the page and fill most of the frame.
- Choose Magic color for pages with color, and Document or Black & white for plain text.
Frequently asked questions
Is this scanner free?
Yes. There are no limits, no sign-up and no watermarks.
Are my photos uploaded anywhere?
No. Everything is processed inside your browser on your own device, so private documents stay private.
Can I put several pages in one PDF?
Yes. Keep adding pages, reorder them with the arrows, and download a single PDF.
Which files can I add?
Photos such as JPG, PNG and WEBP, or a PDF. Each page of a PDF is imported as an image.
Will the text in the PDF be searchable?
No, pages are images. Run an OCR tool on the PDF afterwards if you need searchable text.
The wrong area was cropped. What now?
Tap Crop and drag the four corners onto the page. Auto-detect tries again from scratch.
