Scanning Docs is a No Brainer

I can't believe Apple hid document scanning inside Notes and Files and left it out of the Camera app. When I want to scan something, I open Camera first, every time.

Meet and confir? Me and Your legal attorneys I would suggest please.

Thank you I have a real concern

HEIC still sucks

I don’t know how long you’ve had this format now, but I still hate it because it creates incompatibilities when trying to send it to people for business reasons. Stop it!

I would like to be able to turn it off everywhere
