Most scanner apps are where documents go to be forgotten. scanAll reads every page you scan — right on your iPhone — so you can find any document by what's written inside it. Search "687.50" and the invoice comes right up, with the amount highlighted on the page. And every feature is free, forever. No paywall, no subscription, no in-app purchase, no watermark, no scan limit, no account.
