## What is Archives Scanner?

Archives — Digitize your notebooks

Turn your notebooks, sketchbooks, cookbooks, and journals into a searchable digital library. Point your camera at a page and Archives captures it with crisp, document-quality results — then keeps every page organized, searchable, and synced across your devices.

Page detection with auto-correction
Automatic edge detection finds your page and straightens the perspective, so every scan comes out flat and clean — even when you shoot it at an angle.

Search everything, including handwriting
On-device text recognition reads your handwritten notes, so you can find any page in seconds. Works across 25+ languages, with matches highlighted right on the page.

Organize into archives
Group your scans into notebooks and browse your whole collection at a glance. Jump straight to the page you need, whether it's recipe 12 from Cookbook 2022 or a sketch buried in your field notes.

Bookmarks with notes
Flag your favorite pages and add notes to keep track of what matters — recipes to try, sketches to revisit, ideas to come back to.

Export to PDF (Pro)
Turn any notebook into a multi-page PDF, then share it, save it to Files, or send it to iCloud Drive.

Sync across devices
With iCloud integration, your library stays up to date on every iPhone and iPad, automatically.
Your notebooks, finally searchable. Download Archives and start digitizing today.
