What's New in Paperless Less Paper

3.0.10

November 6, 2026

Search finds documents again on the newest Paperless-ngx. • Fixed: on Paperless-ngx 3.4 and later, search showed no results at all for any query that matched a document — not even the tags, correspondents or saved views it also matched. Newer servers send a shorter answer for documents in search, and the app now reads it. Older servers keep working as before. 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 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.
