## What is LocalScan PDF Offline?

LocalScan PDF Offline is a privacy-first document scanner and PDF utility for iPhone and iPad.

Scan paper documents, receipts, notes, contracts, and forms, then turn them into clean PDF files that stay on your device by default. OCR, PDF generation, thumbnails, file organization, and sharing are handled locally with Apple frameworks.

Key features:
- Multi-page document scanning
- PDF creation from scanned pages and images
- On-device OCR for Simplified Chinese and English
- Image enhancement, grayscale, black-and-white, and original filters
- Page rotation, deletion, and ordering
- Local document library with search
- Favorite files and trash recovery
- PDF preview, sharing, and export
- PDF merge, split, and image export tools
- No login, no ads, no subscriptions, no cloud sync

Privacy by default:
LocalScan PDF Offline does not upload scanned files or OCR text. Your documents are stored in the app sandbox unless you choose to export or share them using iOS system features.
