## What is SendScan?

Stop doing the same thing after every scan. SendScan combines a powerful multi-page document scanner with OCR and automation workflows: scan, rename, email, save... one tap, fully automatic!

Private iCloud sync. No accounts. No analytics. Built for iOS & iPadOS 26.

SCAN ONCE, AUTOMATE EVERYTHING

Stop wasting time on repetitive tasks after scanning. Create custom workflows that automatically:

• Save to specific folders: Route documents to the right place instantly
• Email directly: Send scans to clients, colleagues, or yourself with pre-filled subjects and messages *; multiple recipients are supported and you can either type in their address or pick from your device's Contacts
• Share via Messages: Like for email, add recipients and share via Messages automatically *
• Share seamlessly: Use the system share sheet to send documents anywhere
• Rename intelligently: Apply naming patterns with timestamps, dates, and custom tokens
• Chain actions: Combine multiple steps into a single tap
• Optionally delete after the workflow completes

* A confirmation tap before sending is required by iOS.

OCR & SEARCHABLE PDFs

Make your scans searchable and extract text automatically, privately on-device:

• Searchable PDFs: Enable automatic OCR to create PDFs with invisible, selectable text layers with per-word accurate position in search
• Text extraction: Every OCR'd scan includes a companion .txt file for easy text access
• TXT viewer: View and search recognized text with highlighting and font controls
• Share plain text: Quickly share extracted text without the PDF
• Manual OCR: Add text recognition to existing PDFs with one tap
• Workflow integration: Automatically attach .txt files when emailing or sharing
• Quality control: Save as PDF (multi-page) or JPG (one per page) with adjustable quality and compression

• Home Screen widgets: One-tap access to your most-used workflows

SendScan 1.2.1 release notes

### 1.2 — 2026-01-10

Thank you for scanning with SendScan and sharing your feedback!

This 1.2 update focuses on helping you create smaller files without compromising on what matters most: clear, readable documents.

What's new:

• New Color Mode setting. You can now choose how SendScan processes your scans before saving. Pick from Color (original full-color), Greyscale (shades of grey), or Black & White (high-contrast). Greyscale and Black & White produce significantly smaller files — often 50-70% smaller — making them ideal for text documents, receipts, and forms where colour isn't essential.

• The new option lives in the Scan Quality settings screen, right alongside the existing resolution and compression controls, so you have complete control over the size-quality balance that works best for your needs.

Every scan, smaller and smarter, that's what SendScan is all about.

If you're enjoying the app, a quick 5-star review on the App Store makes a real difference. And SendScan Pro supporters: you make updates like this one possible.

Happy scanning!

### 1.1 — 2025-11-20

SendScan 1.1 release notes

Thank you for welcoming SendScan with your downloads and actionable feedback!

This first update focuses on customization and improving on-device OCR, so SendScan can better adapt to the way you scan and share documents.

What’s new:

• New Settings screen. While most customisations remain available in the top left menu, there’s now a dedicated “Other Settings” section that brings workflow sound, default naming and OCR options together in one place, so they’re easier to discover and adjust over time.

• Speaking of the Workflow completion sound, you can choose whether SendScan should play its cheerful 'yeepee' completion sound when a workflow finishes, or stay completely silent when you prefer a more discreet experience.

• More customisable OCR language control. By default, SendScan’s on-device engine automatically detects text using your system language plus English, which already delivers excellent results. For people who often scan documents in other languages, you can now explicitly add those languages in Settings to squeeze out extra accuracy while keeping everything private on your device.

SendScan helps you capture documents quickly and send them exactly where they need to go, with less friction every time you scan.

A 5-star review really helps others discover SendScan. And if you choose SendScan Pro, you’re directly fueling future updates.

Thanks for being part of this journey!
