## What is ScannerCam Light?

ScannerCam Light turns your iPhone into a fast, private document scanner. Point, capture, and get a clean, cropped PDF in seconds — with everything processed entirely on your device. No account. No cloud. No ads. No tracking.

Your documents never leave your phone.

SCAN ANYTHING
• Automatic edge detection finds the page and crops it for you
• Manual corner adjustment when you want precise control
• Multi-page documents — add, reorder, or delete pages
• Rotate and re-crop any page after the fact

CLEAN, READABLE PAGES
• Auto enhance removes shadows and evens out lighting
• Grayscale and color modes
• Sharp, flattened output even from an angled photo

SEARCHABLE TEXT (OCR)
• On-device text recognition makes your scans searchable
• Find any document by the words inside it, not just its name
• Copy recognized text out to use elsewhere

EXPORT & SHARE
• Export as PDF or JPG
• Password-protect PDFs with AES encryption
• Select multiple documents and export them together as a .zip
• Combine several documents into a single PDF
• Share or print through the standard iOS sheet
• Metadata (EXIF) is scrubbed from exported images

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• 100% offline for your documents — no network calls, no servers
• No sign-up, no account, no analytics
• Camera access is used only to scan; images stay on your device

FREE, WITH OPTIONAL SUPPORT
ScannerCam Light is free and has no ads or subscriptions. If it saves you time and you'd like to support development, there's an optional donation screen (Ko-fi or Bitcoin) — entirely voluntary and never required to use any feature.

Scan receipts, invoices, contracts, notes, IDs, and paperwork — and keep it all on your phone, where it belongs.
