What's New in Paperless Less Paper

3.0.7

September 26, 2026

Search now finds more than documents, and Favorites is now Offline. • Type in the search field on the Documents list and the matches appear grouped — documents, saved views, tags, correspondents, document types, storage paths and custom fields. Tap a document to open it, or tap anything else to filter the list by it. • Choosing a result puts the keyboard away but keeps what you typed, so tapping the field again brings the same results back. • Search terms are no longer written to the diagnostics log. That covers the advanced search too, which had been recording them since long before this release. • The Favorites tab is now called Offline, which is what it always did: keep chosen documents on this device so they can be read with no connection. Saving one is “Save offline” now, under a download arrow rather than a heart. Everything you had already saved is still there, and if you had set a swipe action to Favorite it still works — it is called Offline now. • The Offline list has the same search field as the Documents list, instead of the system one that sat above it. If you hit a problem, please open an issue at https://github.com/plu/less-paper/issues — it is the quickest way to get it fixed.

Great app but…

Great app but it does not work with the latest paperless-ngx release (3.0.2) ( it shows: Response from server is not supported)

Response from developer

The 3.0.1 Update supports now v3.

Great app

Really enjoying this app. I think it is well done and easy to use. You scan as well as view your documents!

Works great

No problems accessing paperlessngx remotely, quick searches.

Great interface

I really like the interface for the app. My only wish is that it supported mTLS

Truly excellent

My family has been using Paperless-ngx for about a year, and it’s wonderful. It’s installed on a home network server (Ubuntu 24.04 LTS) and we use web clients and iOS / iPadOS apps for adding and browsing our documents. The server is backed up with an online / offsite subscription. It’s a life-saver. Super-quick scanning and categorization by all members of our family, with preset rules to simplify the process. And very fast and easy searching and retrieval. Combined with offsite backup, it’s the best of all worlds: easy, fast document archiving and secure, safe long-term storage.
