What's New in FairScan
1.9
October 3, 2026
What's new in FairScan 1.9: • "Scan Document" works again. The first item in the + menu did nothing when tapped — it now opens the camera as it should. • Signatures are fixed. Your signature appears exactly as you drew it, draws smoothly, and stays where you place it — including on rotated pages. • Notifications you turn on now actually arrive. • Passport pages scan at real size, alongside ID cards. • A folder sidebar and more columns on larger screens. • Clearer about Pro: folders are free, Pro removes the limit.
