Document scanner from a photo

Photograph a document with your phone and the tool finds the paper edges, corrects the tilt and perspective, and cleans the background. Move the corners with your finger if they were not found exactly. Black and white mode gives white paper and crisp text, like a flatbed scanner.

Frequently asked questions

How do I get the best scan?

Put the paper on a darker table, shoot from above in daylight, and avoid the shadow of your hand and phone.

Which size should I choose?

For standard paper choose Letter or A4, and for receipts and cards choose Match the document, which keeps the real proportions.

Can I scan several pages into one PDF?

Scan the pages one at a time as PDF, then combine them with Merge PDF.
