What's New in Paperless Less Paper

3.0.8

September 29, 2026

See a document's history, and open every section from one menu. • The viewer has a new History section that lists who changed a document and when, the way the web UI shows it — with names instead of ids, relative times, and System for changes the server made itself. It is only offered when the server keeps an audit log and your account may read it. • View and Edit are now one Open menu with one sheet per section: Content, Custom fields, Details, History, Metadata and Notes. Each section opens editable when your account may change the document and read-only otherwise; Details, which has nothing to show read-only, is offered only to users who can edit. Edit remains as a shortcut to Open > Details. • Swipe actions cover the same sections: open any section straight from the list. A swipe you had set to Edit still opens Details, and one you had set to open notes still opens Notes. • Fixed: switching to another saved view briefly kept the previous view's documents on screen under the new view's name. The list now clears to a spinner while it loads. 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.
