Straight, clean pages

The tool finds the edges of the paper automatically and straightens the page, even when the photo was taken at an angle. If the detection is off, drag the four corners onto the corners of the page.

Tips for better scans

Frequently asked questions

Can I scan with my phone camera?

Yes. On a phone, Take photo opens the camera; add as many pages as you need.

Is the page straightened automatically?

Yes. The corners are detected and the perspective is corrected automatically; you can also adjust the corners by hand.

Can I reorder or delete pages?

Yes. Use the arrows under each page thumbnail to move it, or remove it.

What page size is used?

A4 by default; Letter or the photo's own size are also available.

Is the text searchable?

Not by default, because the pages are images. Run the PDF through the OCR PDF tool to add searchable text.

Are my documents uploaded?

No. The photos are processed on your device and never sent anywhere.
